You are right Shanazel

Bellydance is an art, but also have many sensual elements in it (not saying sexual which is also very common when missdone etc).

We started the kids class with Ghawazee and Raqs al Assaya this year and zills !! and they are doing just great, they love it, and they dont miss at all the 2 piece costumes, the veils etc
Also this covers all the thoughts of the parents regarding bellydance and what people say blah blah.
We are having great fun in class and its one of my beloved classes in the week
