When women gather and dance from within, is something magical✨After more than 20 years of practice as a professional, accompanying women of all ages, body types, nationalities etc, I can assure you that Oriental Dance is one of the best tools for women to combine introspection, connecting with your body and emotions with having fun, expressing yourself and connect with other dancing sisters 👯‍♀️ This a regular course with weekly classes on Fridays so you can tap deeper into the secrets of the most feminine dance! No previous knowlegde needed, it is for you if you are about to try, just come😉 If you’ve learnt oriental dance before, ask me about other levels, we have up to advanced level😉 The most characteristic movements are of pelvic area, our energy center of creativity and sensuality, that has greater capacity of storytelling that you’ve imagined. We will break down from where the movements come from, because yes, there is a technical part so that you get the right tools to start, know the muscles you need to use to make it simplier than it seems. You will see that oriental dance is much more than hip movements, you will also learn torso movements, graceful arms and hands etc It can be energizing , flowing, sensual, flirty, fun and much more! Long story short, as a byproduct you will gain elegance and sensuality in all your moves and expressive body language. You just have to come with comfortable wear for dancing, a scarf for your hips (whatever scarf will do, I will bring some decorated ones too so you can try😉) If you sign up for the course, it has a monthly fee of 47 euros. First class fee: 10 euros IMPORTANT!!! Spots are limited! Your spot is only booked if you register here: https://salimadance.wearebookable.com/event/382fbf0e It is not enough to sign up on meetup :-) We have in total only 9 spots available! Sign up in advance and get prepared for some fun dancing. You can also contact me on WhatsApp for an easier communication: +34670269726 (this option is better, here the DMs sometimes fon’t send the notifications ) Dancing regards, Rita Salima https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAis-g9ijDk/?igsh=MWUyYXhoMnV4cXBuYw==

Mi pasión por el básquet no se detuvo aquí, así que después de 8 años como jugador federado, quise ver el básquet desde otro prisma. Este, me llevo a trabajar de forma autónoma como arbitro en la Federación Catalana por mas de 4 años sobre las distintas regiones de Catalunya. Ahora, como profesional de la salud y el deporte con mas de 13 años de experiencia en el sector y tras mi regreso a Barcelona después de estudiar un postgrado de entrenamiento de alto rendimiento, crear esta escuela de básquet junto Alexis, es uno de los proyectos mas emocionante que he tengo en mi ciudad natal.
