25.01.2022 Dear Belly Dance Arabesque Community It certainly has been an interesting time in our story! I would like to thank everyone for their amazing support of our space and what we offer, from our students, teachers, my landlord, friends and family. When all this began I wasnt sure we would see it to the other side, and even though we are not out of the woods yet there is some light at the end of the tunnel. With change comes change and its going to be an uncertain time for quite... some time in health and business. I have made the choice to keep our classes on line until the end of term 2. This will give us a fresh start for term 3 and a little more time to see how things go. We will need to adhere to the COVID-19 conditions of space and hygiene requirements in the studio once we return so this may limit some class numbers and the way we can do things. Requirements and information is changing all the time so we will have a clearer understanding of this closer to the beginning of Term 3. Our term 3 timetable will be open for bookings from July 1st so keep an eye out for that on social media and in your emails. We will have an end of term 2 virtual party, stay tuned for more information about that. Thank you again for your continued support, we will need it more than ever as we try and rebuild from the effects of COVID-19. If you have any questions at all please get in touch via email, phone or messenger. We cannot wait to dance with you all in person again soon! With love and virtual hugs, Regan and the Arabesque Team

25.01.2022 We are excited to let you know that we are now collecting donations for the Sea Shepherd, a conservation society dedicated to protecting our oceans. Bring your change and pop it in our donation tin, every little bit helps

25.01.2022 IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR BLACKWOOD CLASSES; The Blackwood Memorial Hall will remain closed until Monday December 7th.

24.01.2022 Have you booked your classes? Please check your emails :)

24.01.2022 Had some fun collaborating from afar with our Taketina teacher and fab musician Tony Hole. Thank you to Tony for creating this original music "Sensing". Tony shared this song on his social media. Alain Valodze heard it (he had never met Tony) and was inspired to play guitar with the track. He recorded it and then sent it back to Tony. Tony sent it to Regan, who was then inspired to dance to it. All in isolation, but all together. Created during the COVID-19 Worldwide Pandemic, April 2020, Adelaide South Australia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kc5ueDQnLn0

23.01.2022 We love to get out and about and here we are performing with the fabulous Adelaide African Beats led by Adrian Grigg at the Body Mind and Psychic Expo last year. Regan, Sarah and Harri are dancing ATS (Fat Chance Belly Dance Style) which is an improvised style of dance. It means we can be in the moment, its like a fun ride that you get to do with your friends! Connection and Creativity! https://youtu.be/2-fmbm-avN4

As we cant be together, we have put together this pic of some of our wonderful Adelaide team to share today.

If you or someone you know needs help you can reach out at 1800 RESPECT. #shimmymob
