It is a form of art. A channel for inner expressions, and a means to physical well being. It’s fun. It’s unique. It’s a way of expressing yourself through music. Belly dancing teaches you an attitude: a new way to open yourself. It is a source of courage and inspiration that provides an opportunity to discover oneself. Belly dancing is an art and as such it entails three factors: theory, practice and the heart, without which no art form ever comes to life. As for the practice of belly dancing, it is shaped by each woman’s personality, her intuition and creativity. Amid the jungle of confusing women’s images, belly dancing can help women in the search for their own identity, as women and as human beings.

The Riverfront Dancers began as a collaborative effort between Riverfront, Inc.; who provides opportunities for people with disabilities; and The Dance Studio in 2001, now Amanda’s Academy of Dance (AAD). Their rehearsal season begins each year in September and runs through the end of May. Each week the Riverfront Dancers rehearse for one hour and they also perform in the community as requested. Participating members build upon the skills they have learned the previous year to learn a new dance routine each season that is included as part of AAD’s annual recital.
No experience necessary. New students are always welcome!

This class gives dancers and non-dancers alike the opportunity to experience the physical and therapeutic benefits of dance without the pressure of learning a “technique” or having to perform. Stretch & Flex blends yoga, Pilates, general stretching, toning and conditioning methods together into one very beneficial class. Great for dancers looking to improve their overall flexibility and great for non-dancers too!!
ALL WELCOME!!!!
