Performances with Jade Belly Dance
Jade started studying Middle Eastern Dance in 1999 at the Awalim School of Middle Eastern Dance and drumming. As a mother, Jade has particular interest in teaching children and teenagers. She began teaching adult classes in 2003 and children in 2004. “What I love most about this style of dance is that it allows dancers a great range of imaginative freedom. And is appropriate for people of all ages, shapes and sizes. You can use it simply as a form of exercise to keep fit and healthy, a way of picking up a few moves to use on the dance floor. As a device to express yourself creatively” says Jade.
