How much are bellydancing lessons?

Question:The cost can vary. It depends on various factors including your location, the experience of the instructor, and if they are teaching a specialty that isn't part of regular instruction. (i.e. my instructor has a snake that she dances with occasionally)

You might want to check with a gym or recreation center in your area. Sometimes they have dance classes. You can look on Shira's website.

Middle Eastern Dance website
http://www.middleeasterndance.net/

Both of these sites have lots of great info about belly dance.

You can e-mail or call some of the dance instructors to find out more about their background, their style of instruction, what they expect from students, and fees they charge for classes. If you don't find a teacher listed for your area, you might want to contact one from the websites and find out if they may know of an instructor who may live closer to you.

I hope you find a teacher that you like. If one teacher's style doesn't suit your learning style, try another. I've known some dancers to take awhile finding a setting that worked for them.

Good luck!!
