Helia's Belly Dance, Together Ensemble

After expressing interest in a class, Helia contacted me right away and answered all my questions. I can't be more excited to start my classes.

I have been taking belly dance classes from Helia for around a year now. I never thought I would be able to dance, but have always wanted to learn, and Helia has helped me learn and find out I can dance! She is a great teacher, is fun to work with, and really cares about her students.

I've spent the past twelve years studying other types of dance and had wanted to try belly dance for a very long time. Coming into Helia's class made me feel warm and welcome and has helped me to grow as a dancer!

Pour moi, non seulement tu es une bonne danseuse, mais surtout une bonne pédagogue. Une personne généreuse qui prend vraiment le temps de nous apprendre. Tu n'es pas au cours pour te regarder danser, mais bien pour observer et nous amener à aimer danser. Tu nous donnes confiance en nous. Merci Hélia! To me, you are not only a good dancer, but also a good teacher. A generous person who really takes the time to show us. You're not there to watch yourself dance, but to observe us and make us love dancing. You give us confidence in us. Helia thank you!

I've been taking Helia's bellydancing classes for several months and I love it! It's an escape from the cares of the week. I always look forward to Monday nights! My balance has improved (considering how terrible it was!) and I have a greater sense of ownership of my own body. Helia is a patient and thorough teacher. She expresses an attitude that we will all learn in our own time, which is great, because she allows us to be patient with ourselves.
