Absolutely love dancing at the academy . Always learning and improving ! Very professional and every class is filled with fun and joy !

Classes at Belly Dance Academy involve the exploration of various dance moves that focus on the movement of isolated parts of the body with an appreciation for detail, as well as the combination of these movements, creating an artwork that moves to the various rhythms learnt in class that are designed to communicate with the body.The class atmosphere is one of positivity and wellness, an acceptance for all individuals, which allows for an ease of releasing inhibitions and a break from lifes pressures.

Very impressed. I learnt great skills and techniques during my journey. Highly recommended.

We hired Kayla for my Husbands 60th Birthday Party this September in Pretoria East, since we were having a bohemian / gypsy theme, and thought it would be nice to add something special. Well it was super special and a huge surprise for all our guests. Kayla is really beautiful and the company super professional. She arrived and with in minutes was dancing to the tune of arabian music. Wow, our guests simply loved every minute and clapped to the beat, this was the best idea we have had so far. Thanks Ilona, we will most certainly do this again!

Amazing work out, plus it is fun! If you want to learn different styles and techniques, this is definitely the place to be. Lifted my spirit!
