Dance into shape with Sweetwater Center for the Arts

 

SEWICKLEY, Pa.- Love to dance? Come groove at Sweetwater this winter with three entertaining dance classes! First stretch and tone yourself with BALLET FOR ADULTS. This class is 8 Mondays from 9:30-11:00 a.m. starting on January 24 and ending on March 21, 2011. (No class February 21, 2011) Ballet is a great way to escape from the pressures of daily life while expressing yourself creatively and increasing your fitness level. Students are asked to wear ballet slippers and comfortable clothes that allow for stretching, such as a leotard,  tights or sweats. This class is $105 for members and $130 for non-members.

Next, celebrate your feminine side with BELLY DANCING. This class is 6 Mondays from 6:30-7:30 p.m. starting on January 31 and ending on March 21, 2011, 2010. (No class February 21 or March 14, 2011.) This entertaining class is a chance for those young and young at heart to let loose and have some fun! Students will be introduced to the fundamentals of belly dance through the history and steps from nine different styles. This high energy, low impact form of exercise tones the body from head to toe and helps improve posture and circulation. Dress in loose athletic pants or a long skirt with leggings and a comfortable shirt, and wear ballet style slippers or jazz shoes. No dance experience is necessary. A materials fee of $35 is payable to the instructor on the first night of class and covers the cost of a mandatory hip scarf. This class is $60 for members and $85 for non-members.


Finally, get your heart pumping with DANCE MIX. DANCE MIX is 6 Mondays from 7:30-8:30 p.m. starting January 31 and ending on March 21, 2011. (No class February 21 or March 14, 2011.) This fun, aerobic-inspired class will introduce students to a variety of different dance styles. Students will be taught a new style of dance each week, inspired by Jazz, Hip Hop, Latin, Modern and Hawaiian. Come learn new dances with a twist in a fun and relaxing environment. Please wear loose, comfortable clothing. This class is $60 for members and $85 for non-members.
