8 Elements of Belly Dance - Phase 2 - 2027

​This is an in-person event.

​Phase 2: Cultivation builds on the lessons from Phase 1, and shifts focus to Datura's challenging dance vocabulary, complex finger cymbal patterns, and developing ideas for dance composition. Dancers interested in Phase 2 must complete all requirements for Phase 1 to be eligible to register.

​About the schedule:
Classes run daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with additional homework each evening. The final day, Saturday, is testing and party day. We usually end between 7 and 9pm, depending on the intensive.

​Once registered, you’ll receive a confirmation email with everything you need to prepare, including a link to join our Telegram group—perfect for finding roommates, planning meetups, and staying connected.

​Optional Testing:
A skills assessment is available on the final day of the intensive. Registration for testing opens once the intensive begins. Successful completion qualifies dancers to continue to the next phase of the 8 Elements™ program.
