What people are saying...
​"I have been taking lessons from Elizabeth since February 2018 and let me tell you it was the best decision I have ever made! At first I started with the mindset of what have I got to lose. After the first lesson I was hooked! The way she teaches and takes her time with you is refreshing. She always asks if we have any questions and is happy to answer and will take the time to show you if you don’t understand. I have a new found respect for this art and the women and men I have met on this new journey of my life. I have learned to love myself more and quit sweating the insignificant aspects that society has put on us about our weight and appearance. I now love me and she has shown me that none of that matters in the end. If you want an instructor that will change your life in more ways than one, she is the one for you!" - Jennie M.

What to Wear?
Wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move comfortably. Leggings or yoga pants and a tank top or fitted shirt is great.  Fitted clothes that will allow you to see your movements and check your posture is most helpful. Showing the belly is  totally optional.  

No special shoes required. Fusion belly dance is often done barefoot. However, if the floor is cold or we're doing turning footwork, you may find socks, ballet slippers, or other soft soled dance shoes helpful. 

What is Datura Style?
Datura Style Belly Dance refers to both a dance vocabulary and an approach to technique that can be used for choreography and improvisation. Learn more about Datura Style here.
