Fitness and Grace together - Dhurii belly dance classes in Bangalore!

Belly dancing, though relatively a nascent style in India, is fast gaining popularity amongst women. And why not? It serves multiple purposes and I am going to just state a few right here!

Belly dance is the best style you can opt for if grace, poise and elegance are elements you strive for in dance. We have all seen belly dancing videos on so many online portals..and come on! The one thing we all agree with is that the dance form is grace personified! With learning how to move just your torso..you not only master the art of isolation but also understand how a minimalistic approach to dance sometime works wonders!

If you are looking to get toned..especially around your torso…there is no better dance style than this!

The movement is created in such a way that if you practise this form regularly, your obliques are sure to disappear and your abdominal muscles develop a discipline which helps you make formations around your belly effortlessly. This is definitely one of the main reasons for bellydance Bangalore to gain so much popularity!

This style blends wonderfully with so many different kinds of music - so wherever you go, you are never at a loss of steps..you can do your steps to almost all kinds of music. Add a shimmy to your bollywood music, add an undulation to a pop number and people around you will surely turn their heads at you again!

The term bellydance derives its meaning from the French term "danse du venture" which primarily means the dance of the stomach. It is primarily a torso-driven dance, with an emphasis on articulations of the hips. Unlike some other dance forms, this form is relaxed, tuned towards natural isolations of the torso muscles, rather than just on movements of the limbs through space.

Belly dance classes in Bangalore have also picked up over the years due to its varied advantages. And we at Dhurii, offer you belly dancing classes in Bangalore which are a unique blend of technique, routines, choreographies and use of props like the veil.

For those of you who may have seen a few belly dance videos, you may find that there are different styles of this form. Of the different styles, the most contrasting are the Egyptian and Turkish styles. The Egyptian style is more delicate and controlled and going on the floor is not in vogue. The classical Egyptian style is also known as Raqs Sharqi. The Turkish style is more upbeat and playful and the dancer extends her movements by tilting the torso back and going on the floor is very common. Besides these two, there are other styles such as Cabaret, American Tribal Style, and Fusion amongst others.

Along with Egypt and Turkey, this form is very big in the Middle East. Arabic belly dance has two social contexts - one as a social or folk dance, which is known as Raqs Baladi and the other as a performance art which is actually not considered very respectable in the Middle East.

Different belly dance classes in Bangalore focus on a particular style of this form. Indian belly dance has primarily taken over by blending the original moves of the form with a lot of Indian music, ranging from Indian instruments to Bollywood, and this mix sure does look gorgeous!

We insist upon the belly waist belts from the very first class as that gives you a very good idea of how much weight you can carry around your hip and how long can you sustain it. We do a proper belt selection with each student personally so that you choose the right belt for yourself! As choosing the right belt is to this dance what choosing the right kind of job profile is to your career!

A lot of people these days watch a good "how to" belly dance video and feel that there is no need to enter a class - convenience has taken over!! While this is fine, if you can absolutely not take out any time…you will feel yourself feeling stagnated after a point. This is mainly because there is no one to give you feedback, so all you are doing is one way learning with no way of knowing if the implementation in your body is correct or not. So we strongly encourage you to join classes and learn from a live teacher. Group energy of the class also helps you learn faster and you observe each other and learn from the other's mistake a lot quicker sometimes!

Apart from regular classes in Bangalore, we also do frequent workshops in this form. While we recommend following up these workshops by joining regular classes, we understand how sometimes time is a constraint and something is better than nothing!!

And finally, our dance company also does a lot of belly performances from time to time so keep a watch out for these by liking our facebook page or signing up for our mailer list and do feel free to contact us if you wish to get an opportunity to perform with us!

If just dance Bangalore is your motto, you need to look nowhere else. Besides this form, we also offer so many other styles of dance and each one taught and imparted with the best quality standards in mind. The founders of Dhurii are themselves trained in these styles and continue to keep themselves updated from across the world, to help you get the best of all worlds! So what are you waiting for? Get your belts on and shimmy away like there is no tomorrow!
