Eliane Stone is the Director of Acceleration bellydance and fitness Company located in Omaha Nebraska. She is well versed in Traditional and Folkloric Bellydance forms and her vibrant personality will bring enthusiasm to your dance.
She will be teaching a Turkish Romani with skirt class! Learn all about the beautiful Turkish folkloric style. This style of dance includes fancy footwork, sassy hips, styled arm movements and gestures with pelvic drops and movement specific to this IndoAryan nomadic group.
All Romani music will be played during class which has an infectious and spice odd time signature.
We’ll start with arm gestures, and the meaning and cultures behind them, and move on to skirt work. A 25 yard minimum skirt is recommended and there will be a few extras to borrow if needed.
We will end the class by learning a fun mini combo to the music and with finger cymbals and practice 9/8 rhythms.
All levels of dancers are welcome and sure to benefit from this Folkloric class!
