Tribal belly dance workshops - The art of fluid motion.
23 GBP
Liverpool presents... Melli Sarina!
About Melli.
This is the first time Melli has taught in the UK so it is an honour to have her over to teach us the art of fluid motion.
Over the past 17 years she has performed different styles of oriental dance, until discovering and falling in love with tribal fusion belly dance.
Studying ATS, ITS and tribal fusion with more than 30 different teachers, and attending the tribal massive professional track in Las Vegas twice already, Melli is dedicated to constantly improving her performance, dance technique, precision skills, and regularly invests in herself with workshops and private tuition with Zoe Jakes and Violet Scrap amongst many others.
Melli is currently on a workshop tour through Germany so we are very lucky to have her for this day!
The workshops.
We decided to create a progressive set workshops so you can start at the beginning and work through to the more challenging movements. Whatever you choose, you will learn something new and interesting!
After the dance workshops we have a treat in the form of a Yin yoga practice. The benefits of yin yoga are beyond what I can explain in words, but I shall try!
Quiet and calm, Yin is the perfect compliment to our busy, yang lifestyles and workshops. We work with gravity and not against it, so we will be laying on the floor in a passive stretch, no energy needed for Yin! Simply lay down and feel the benefits working with little effort.
The hour will consist of holding the stretches for a longer period of time, 3-5 minutes, and you literally feel the tension release from the muscles and fascia. With this release you will feel a lot lighter, relaxed, and feel that moving in general is a lot smoother and easier.
After the workshops.
After the workshops we will head to a restaurant called, Da Gurkha (Nepalese).The restaurant owner has kindly allowed us to hold a mini hafla!! So anybody who wants to perform a short piece are welcome to. We have an hour for performances so I am sure we will all have a chance to perform. We will also have the chancento see Melli perform for us!
Meals at Da Gurka are usually around £10-£15 per head, depending on what you get. They are vegan friendly and make the most delicious food! There is no obligation to eat here, but I suspect you will be wanting a good meal after a long day of workshops!

No charge to come to the restaurant, unless you eat of course! Even then, just pay for what you want.
I will provide vegan protein bites and fruit at the breaks, but please feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks.
Travel.
MDI is on Hope street in Liverpool city centre. It is approximately a 10 minute walk from central station or Lime street. I will post more details if requested.
Da Gurkha is on South road in Waterloo. I will have my car so can offer lifts. It is around 15-mins drive from MDI. There is also a train station a few yeards from the restaurant, Waterloo station.
We are looking forward to seeing you at our workshops and hope to have a wonderful day, and evening!
