Tips for belly dance with a veil

One of our favourite accessories to dance with is the veil, the theme of our A and A/M choreographies in our next course period (KP2) starting March 4th 2024. Veils can be used to frame movements or become an extension of the dancer’s body. Dynamic, dramatic or dreamy, the movement fills the space around the dancer in colour and shape, as the veil adds a new dimension to the performance.

A YEAR IN OUR NEW DANCE STUDIO IN ZURICH

It’s hard to believe that we’ve already danced a whole year in our new studio in Wipkingen. It’s time to look back and celebrate how we achieved our crowdfunding goal to help fund building work and how we’ve filled the space this year with energy, creativity and fun! The new ZeoT dance studio is more than a dance school; it’s a beautiful space for our community to meet, dance, be creative and feel at home.

DARE TO BE YOU...

DARE TO BE YOU...

When I dance I feel at my most whole, at my most “me”. I'm learning to accept the imperfections, the mistakes, to accept myself as I am. When do you feel most at ease with yourself? How do you feel when you dance?

If you feel awkward or insecure you’re not alone. It can take a lot of courage to try something new or learn a new skill, knowing you’ll mistakes which will be reflected back to you in the mirror or seen by your teacher or fellow students. Here are some ideas to think about to help you feel more comfortable with yourself in or out of the dance studio.

WHY CAN’T WE SEE OURSELVES AS WE REALLY ARE?⠀⠀

As a dancer, I spend a lot of time infront of a mirror. Some days all I can see are the parts of my body I tend to criticise. Other days I love to see what my body can do in terms of shapes, strength and creativity.

During an interview for health coach Caitlin Ball’s podcast I talk about how the process of observing yourself in a mirror whilst dancing can actually be an effective tool in helping with body image issues. You can listen to it here and hear what we discussed about about body image and how belly dance can help you feel good about your body. ⠀⠀⠀

HOW BELLY DANCE CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE

To feel good in your own skin is truly a gift and it’s this gift that I want to share with as many women as possible through their participation in dance performance projects. This is also the gift that dance can provide by sharing the way we experience the world, providing a means to communicate beyond language and time.

Find out more about how the experience of rehearsing together, supporting one another, being part of the creative process, and ultimately performing on stage can have a powerful and transformative effect on women’s body image and self esteem.
