Holistic Bellydance with Fiora

Fiora Touliatou is holding a series of Ηolistic Bellydance workshops in Cardiff in the new year.

It is inspired by traditional bellydance moves, the North African trance dances Zaar and Guedra, the Persian Khaleegi, holistic therapies and elements of Kundalini yoga.

Holistic bellydance is a personal journey. The intention is to focus on the healing effects of bellydance and experience it as a moving meditation.

There won't be sequences, choreography or musical interpretation taught. From time to time, students will be asked to close their eyes in order to focus inside their body. Some dancing will be done while sitting down.

Holistic bellydance is about holistic movement, chakras, visualisation, releasing negative feelings, experiencing the flow of cosmic energies, being connected with our higher self and the Universal Consciousness.

The sessions will take place one Saturday a month: January 16, February 6, March 6, April 3, May 8 and June 5. One group will meet in the morning (10am till midday) while the second group will meet in the afternoon (1 till 3pm).

The workshops take place at the Gaia Studio, (entrance on Cottrell Road), at the rear of 173 Treharris Street, Roath, Cardiff CF24 3HQ.

Each workshop costs £15 - places are limited, advanced bookings only.
