Wild Woman Series presents.
The Rhythm of the Hips
A belly dance workshop

The Wild Woman Series is created by Dilara Akpinar, a belly dancer and somatic psychotherapist, with the goal of embarking on a journey that embraces and celebrates our beingness. 
The aim of these movement series is to fully inhabit the body and the present moment, filled with expansive emotions such as pain, grief, joy, and pleasure. 
The body acts as a connection between the conscious and the unconscious, and through movement, help facilitate a  transition between states of growth.

In the first of the series, The Rhythm of the Hips, we will explore our divine feminine energy through the timeless art form of belly dance. Starting with breath connection and a warm up, we will progressively introduce hip movement, circular motions, shimmies, locks, arm movement, and more.. We will close the session with a cool-down to gradually decrease our heart rate and stretch our muscles.

All are welcome.

**While it's suggested to bring a shawl or scarf for the hips, it's not mandatory. Please refrain from wearing belts with coins. Wear comfortable clothes that allow free movement and consider bringing a water bottle for hydration!
