Beginner Belly Dance - This class focuses on breaking down basic isolations, arm patterns, and footwork to prepare you for an intermediate class of any style of belly dance (Raqs Sharqi or Fusion). No dance experience is needed to join! We recommend taking Beginner Belly Dance for at least 3-6 months before an Intermediate class.

Intermediate Raqs Sharqi - Raqs Sharqi is Arabic for Oriental Dance (commonly known as Belly Dance) and covers American Cabaret, Classical Egyptian, Egyptian Pop, and some folkloric Middle Eastern stylings of dance. This class goes a step beyond a beginner class by focusing more on stylization, Middle Eastern Rhythms and cultural context, combos, and choreographies. We recommend taking Intermediate Raqs Sharqi for at least 1 year before registering for Advanced. 

Intermediate Fusion Belly Dance - In this class, students learn to stylize their basic isolations and steps learned in Intro to Belly Dance to fit the Fusion aesthetic. This alternative style of Belly Dance blends MENAHT (Middle Eastern, North African, Hellenic, and Turkish) elements with other styles of dance; often times Flamenco, East Indian Dance, Hip Hop, and Contemporary. It is a style that developed in the 90s and early 2000's in the US, pioneered by dancers such as Jill Parker, Zoe Jakes, Rachel Brice, Mira Betz, and more. We recommend taking Intermediate Fusion for at least 1 year before attending Advanced. 

Mixed Level Belly Dance Drills - This class is geared toward intermediate and advanced students with an understanding of basic belly dance movements. However, adventurous beginners are welcome to join! 
If you’re a beginner, you may attend this class if you are also attending a Beginner class at least once a week. 
In a mixed level class, basic movements are not always broken down. This class will drill movements from both Raqs Sharqi and Fusion style belly dance.

Advanced Raqs Sharqi - In Advanced Raqs Sharqi, students will take their dance to the next level by learning layered movements, and use drills to build on technique and exude feeling. Students will learn through combinations and choreographies, and props such as veils, canes, finger cymbals, are commonly used in class. 

Advanced Fusion Belly Dance - In the Advanced Fusion class, students learn more complex concepts, with a focus on layered movements, dynamic lock sequences, and props. Choreographies are more intricate and the emphasis in class will be on sequencing rather than technique. Students are expected to have a firm understanding of belly dance technique and fusion stylizations before attending this class. 

Advanced Layer Lab - In Layer Lab, Sadie teaches mind bending layers to get us out of our dance boxes! Challenge yourself with new pathways and patterns as we play with tempo changes, mixing smooth and staccato movements, and more! Through technique breakdown and drills, we will expand our dance vocabulary together.

What Our Students Are Saying

During the pandemic Sirena World Dance Studio has been a saving grace! These ladies have delivered excellent virtual classes in which I've been able to keep up with my personal practice. I don't live in ABQ, but if I did I would certainly try an in person class. If you're looking for some make-your-brain-work world dance fun I highly recommend these mermaids!"
-Yolanda

"I have been wanting to take classes at Sirena ever since their "open house" style day with previews of all the teachers and finally in quarantine have been able to take the zoom classes! I love them!! I have only taken zoom classes with Sadie so far, but they are a lot of fun. It is exciting seeing so many happy people come together to learn this beautiful art."
-Alex


"A wonderfully supportive studio with the most amazing, kindest, sweetest, and most creative teachers! This studio brings inspiring performance art and opportunities to be involved in new ways to Albuquerque. I am so grateful to this hardworking and talented community."
-Katherine

"This studio is my favorite part of Albuquerque. The teachers are excellent dancers, but also very fun and welcoming. I take all the intro and half the level 1 classes. It's my happy place and would be yours too if you sign up."
