Floor work
Once an expected aspect of any belly dancers performance, the delicate, delicious art of dancing on the floor is now being revisited by belly dancers eager to explore this exospheric aspect of the belly dance. Lowering and rising from the earth, and dancing on the earth using basic belly dance movements infused with delightful and interesting combinations and gesticulations woven with Sabrina’s unique interpretation will be explored with specifications for how to keep the movements manageable for all levels of flexibility and strength. Sabrina will additionally give instruction on how to prepare and condition the body for more advanced floor work using dance conditioning exercises and technique.

Shimmies
A staple of the art of belly dancing, shimmies are unique and interpretive, intense and yet exciting and playful. Sabrina will explore and interpret the different dynamics of several different shimmies, including instruction in mechanics and technique for basic shimmies, ¾ shimmies, bouncing shimmies, freeze shimmies, and traveling with shimmies, layering and moving the energy. Sabrina will introduce original and exotic combinations for performing shimmies to select and different pieces of music such as drum solo and taxim and with floor work.
