About Maha's Teaching
Maha's teaching style is greatly inspired by her teacher and mentor Hadia (www.hadia.com) which involves an in depth knowledge of anatomy for bellydance and a sophisticated system for breaking down movements into their simplest components to ensure easy and safe acquisition for students. Employing Hadia's "Body Logic" system, students learn to move the body in a way that is free of restriction and will enjoy the bliss of dance movement. Maha has completed all three levels of Hadia's Teacher Training Program.
Maha attends weekly classes and workshops in bellydance with a variety of wonderful instructors to keep her skills current and inspired.
Maha is also a trained Bellyfit® instructor. Bellyfit® is a revolutionary fusion fitness for women combining Bellydance, Bollywood, Bhangara, and African dance movements to burn mega calories. The second half of the class is dedicated to sculpting and toning the body with a Pilates inspired workout and finishing with relaxing yoga inspired stretches and mindful Mudra Meditation.
Specialty Classes
Maha will be taking a break from Specialty classes for the summer. See you in the fall!

Private Classes
Private classes and Semi Private classes are an excellent way to get feedback and instruction on technique and choreographies that students cannot get in class. It is recommended to take a few a year as a supplement to weekly classes. For students wanting to achieve a high level of mastery of the art form or become professional, private lessons are necessary. Privates can be taken instead of weekly classes for out of town students or for those who cannot schedule a regular weekly class.
All Privates are 1hr long and cost:
- 1 student - $60
- 2 students - $70
