Are you in the “before” of belly dancing?

 

The “before” of belly dancing is what you actually think and feel before you take a belly dance class or start asking about it.

 

Be in the “after” of belly dancing for $64.99/month.

Hi there! I’m Samantha!

 

I hear you say this often:

“I’ve always wanted to learn belly dancing!”
“That was so much fun!”
“Let me see if I can do it every week with my schedule”
“I’m not good with videos. I need a live class.”

 

But what you’re thinking is:

“I’ve been wanting an excuse to move my body but I haven’t given myself the permission to do so.”
“I have a lot of stress in my life and I need to do something about it now.”
“I have to justify why I would spend time on myself because I should be doing something else…not this…not for me.”
“I don’t trust myself enough to follow through. I’ve failed in the past before.”

 

Listen…
waiting to feel like you’re worth it,
waiting for time to open up before you can do it,
or waiting to believe you’re not the negative summation of your failures,
doesn’t get you any closer to belly dancing.

 

It doesn’t get you any closer to getting what you want.

 

In fact, you end up with no belly dancing, more reasons to keep you away from what you want, feeling shitty often and being a victim to it.

You don’t get out of that cycle by waiting for everything to line up just right.

 

There’s never going to be a “right time” for you to make a choice to do what you want.

 

You just make a choice.

Even if it means you have to start flipping your world upside down to get what you want.

But then you tell yourself…
“It’s too much work.”
“It’s not really worth it.”
“It’s okay, I’ll do it later.”

“Now’s not a good time.”

The truth?
It will take effort on your part.
That’s not a reason to stop and quit on you.
You will always be worth it. Non-negotiable.

Later is another excuse you tell yourself.
You don’t have to make a choice to go after what you want.
Because that would mean letting go of your reasons that you’ve held on to for years.

But you’re worth going after.

 

The “after” of belly dancing is worth it.

You’ll get freedom of movement in your body.

 

Your negative beliefs about you and your body will disintegrate.

 

You’ll connect with yourself emotionally and physically on a deeper level than you thought possible.

 

You make it work and learn how to not wait for the “perfect” time.

Don’t let your life be the culmination of your excuses.

You can move further away from those excuses so you can get what you really want.

Take the first step for yourself now and start being in the “after” of belly dancing.

Why get a membership?

Consider this:

  • The point of getting a membership is to have a sense of a long-term and continuing education in your training. Doing one offs, here and there, have a different impact on your knowledge, your consistency, and in the end, your effectiveness.
  • If you’re going to study, train, and apply yourself and enjoy the process, it’s more effective to be committed to on-going classes in an environment you love and crave. 
  • Creating a fun and open relationship with your teacher who can encourage and support you along the way is an amazing experience too. <3

What if I have physical concerns?

If you are worried about your pains, body limitations, or even how “in shape” you are…

  • Samantha has worked with many people who have physical limitations due to injuries, medical conditions, etc.  She can give you alternate moves.
  • This art form is for any “body” and you get to dance in YOUR body. Not someone else’s.
  • Always make sure you are cleared for physical activity by your trusted medical professional.  This will allow you to move with more confidence and make sure that you stay safe.
