Every 2nd Saturday in May, Dancers all over the globe host events to celebrate World Belly Dance Day in an effort to help combat the negative stereotypes that have unfortunately attached themselves to our art form. These celebrations are our way of reaching out to help change those misconceptions and let the general public know what belly dance is truly about: Joy!
All Points Belly Dance celebrated World Belly Dance Day 2010 with performances by Safira and Minowara Belly Dance Ensemble at the Mandeville Trailhead Saturday Market. After the close of the Market, we opened our Studio to visitors and hosted a free class for people interested in trying belly dance.
We had a great time and are looking forward to World Belly Dance Day next year on May 14th, 2011! Check back here often as we make announcements about planned festivities.
This event is part of Art in Motion, sponsored by All Points Belly Dance and Pandorium Belly Dance. Art in Motion is a series of performances, classes, workshops, and other events designed to help educate the general public about the wonderful Art of Belly Dance, showing them that its so much more than the stereotypes.
