One of my favorite ways to calm the nervous system, focus the mind, and experience the body: practicing the Dance Cohesion rhythm loops. This one is ayub with pelvic diamonds.

Sometimes I forget to tell my face I’m having a great time. 😆 Does that ever happen to you?
But seriously I love dancing Cued Cohesion. Structured improv is especially satisfying with a tuned-in dance partner like this who catches the musical change even when we are facing the back in the middle of a turn!

Learning to play and dance with the frame drum completely reinvented and reinvigorated my relationship to bellydance.
If you’ve ever done a dance style for 20+ years you know that sometimes you find yourself forgetting why you are spending so much of your time and energy on it. You somehow lose touch with the magic that originally gripped you…
Then 💥BAM💥 a new teacher, a new community, a new approach fuels your passion again like new!
The deep low vibration of the frame drum healed my burned out nervous system.
Remembering the ancient frame drummers as I played made me feel connected to their power.
Feeling the elements in each of the tones wrapped me in Mother Earth’s embrace.
Learning to play Middle Eastern rhythms on the frame drum unlocked a parallel skill in playing them on the finger cymbals.
When I added multi-tonal Middle Eastern rhythms on finger cymbals to my bellydance I fell in love with the dance again. My mind, body, heart, and soul fully engaged.
That’s why I weave frame drum and finger cymbals into everything I teach. I want to share the magical connected feeling it gives me.
I’ve found many other bellydancers who feel the call of the drum, too, and we’ve created a like-hearted community of dancer percussionists.
It feels sacred.
If you are a bellydancer who feels the call of the frame drum, you are going to love my new online program.
At the end of the free masterclass I’m teaching on Tuesday, I’ll be sharing all the details about the program and opening the doors for a special price for a few days only!
The topic of the masterclass is: “5 Secrets to Being a Confident, Versatile Bellydancer (and the Mistakes Dancers Make That Stop Them)”
