What should I wear to class?
Wear workout gear that allows Laila to see
your hips, knees and shoulders and is
comfortable to move in.
Dancing can be done in bare feet, socks or in
dance shoes. Dance shoes can be purchased
online at Discount Dance Supply.
Hip scarves, zills, veils and other dance
accessories can be purchased online at
Dahlal International, Miss Belly Dance or
Moondance.
What are classes like?
Classes begin with a warm-up and stretching.
This is followed by the technique session of
the class. In this section, students focus on
learning new moves and refining old ones.
The last half of class focuses on learning a
choreography. These choreographies
emphasize specific techniques and are an
introduction to Middle Eastern music.
