    November 6th  from 2 to 3pm,  introduction to the Art of Belly Dance.
    Cost $10, must register by November 4th.
    This class introduces the basic movements and fundamentals of belly
    dance to the new student.  American Belly Dance is rooted from the old
    Middle Eastern dances, and integrated/fused accordingly by a
    performer.  Special attention will be focused on essential body
    mechanics of this dance while a variety of genre's of music
    (folkloric, Egyptian cabaret, fusion) will be played as simple
    combinations of movement are taught.

    November 13th from 230 to 430pm, Veil choreography tribaret style.  Cost $20
    Taught and choreographed by Attar, study some of her acclaimed veil
    technique to a fusion belly dance song that is both beautiful and
    different.  Students will receive written choreography and song
    information as well as instruction on how to excecute the
    choreography.  Students will need to bring their own veil of about 3
    yards of light weight fabric (such as silk or chiffon).  Veils may be
    found at a local fabric store by purchasing 3 yards of fabric, hemming
    is optional for a practice veil.  Students are encouraged to have some
    experience with dance classes to participate, however newer students
    are welcome to join.
