Belly Dance Classes with Camille Coming to The Upstairs

There’s something exciting that just got added to The Upstairs calendar. Who’s ready to shimmy? Camille is offering a new weekly Beginner Belly Dance Class starting on Tuesday, September 1st. We want to see you there!

Move your body. Shake off the week. Learn something ancient.

Bellies, Beats and Bare Feets

Join Camille — a 30-year belly dance veteran — for a fun, judgment-free beginner class in Santa Rosa. No experience needed. Just show up, kick off your shoes, move, and let the music do the rest.

We’ll cover the foundations of belly dance: hip isolations, shimmies, arm movements, and basic combinations. Small group, intimate setting, real instruction from someone who has been dancing since she was 14.

This is not a performance class. There’s no recital, no pressure, no wrong way to shimmy. Just your body, the beat, and bare feet on the floor.

Reserve your spot now before it fills up, or pay $20 to drop in at the event — see you on the floor. 💃

Bellies, Beats and Bare Feets — where good music meets bare feet and happy hips.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What should I bring?

Yourself, bare feet, and clothes you can move in. Shimmy belt if you have one. Water bottle recommended. 

Do I need to have any bellydancing experience?

Nope, you’ll learn the basics and this class is suitable for all experience levels. You will be moving for an hour, so being capable of being active and on your feet for the class is the only prerequisite. No experience with any kind of dance required.

What can I expect to do during the class?

We’ll do a warm-up, foundations, a short combination, and a cooldown. You’ll leave feeling it in your hips and with a smile on your face, and you’ll be guided every step of the way.

How can I ensure there’s space for me in the class?

Get tickets on Eventbrite from Camille, and be sure to choose the Doobie Loyalty Discount if you’re a Doobie Dividends member!
