Workshops & Lessons

Zafira teaches in different locations in Amsterdam and at the "Vrije Universiteit" Cultural Center and ,Haarlem and Heemstede. For information about the workshops check on the Bellydancing.nl agenda.

For a different sort of workshop, Zafira gives special workshops for Bride's Party's, a great way to surprise friends and the bride. (These workshops are also available at Shibli ). In the workshop, special attention is given to the bride (attributes such as hip shawls and costume are included in price), the basic techniques of the dance are given and a short choreography learnt. Light refreshments and middle-eastern snacks are served. At the end there is a performance by Zafira. In Amsterdam these workshops are held in a beautiful studio and are a lot of fun and a great way to surprise the bride.

These workshops can also be tailored for corporate events and other special ocassions (throughout the Netherlands etc).

As prices can vary for more detailed information about lessons and workshops, contact Zafira tel 020-6811573 / 06 2815 6962 or email:juliazafira@zonnet.nl
