Belly Raqs
Advertisements
A Kashmir style of belly dance, grounded in the styling of its birth place: the Middle East and Egypt. Join a belly dancing class, have a workshop with a group of friends or hire a belly dancer for your event.
"Belly Raqs" is Kashmir's style of belly dance which is grounded in the styling of its birth place - the Middle East and particularly (for Kashmir) Egypt.
Kashmir has been teaching belly dance in Christchurch, New Zealand, since 1997. She brings both a love of the dance - which she has studied since 1991 - and an interest in teaching (it is a sad fact that some excellent dancers are poor teachers). Kashmir not only trained and had experience as a Secondary School teacher but undertook further study in teaching dance from the Queensland University of Technology. A further interest is "Safe Dance Practice" - which in addition to the unit with QUT - Kashmir has attended lectures and practicals with several physiotherapists.
