Experience this beautiful dance form from the middle east in a fun and supportive environment. Improve your posture, flexibility and co-ordination as Rachel teaches you to flick, pop, circle, twist, drop-and thats just one hip! Shimmy up a storm to super fast drum beats then move it like a snake to the sound of slow hipnotic flutes-its all part of the many different ways you will learn to use your body!

Wear comfortable clothes and a hip scarf is desired.
