the Price of Belly Dancing Lessons

I took a one day 3 hour belly dancing class with a group of friends. The cost per person for the class was $65.

Every year me and a group of friends from college meet in a different location and have a week of fun! This year we met in Ohio and one of the activities we chose was a belly dancing class. The class was a 3 hour class that was held on a weekend day. The first hour or so we learned about the history of belly dancing and learned about the importance and historical significance of the outfits that are worn.

Then for about an hour we watched different videos and demonstrations of how to belly dance and learned about the health benefits of belly dancing and why it is such a good exercise program.

The final hour was spent actually practicing.

While I did learn a lot, this class was not at all what we were looking for. We just wanted a fun activity for the day. Instead it felt like we were in school. We got bored very quickly and didn't really get as much out of the class as we would have if it had been presented better.

Be sure that the class you take is what you want it be. For example, if you want to learn the history make sure it has that, if you just want to dance, be sure that it is a class that focuses on the actual dancing part.
