Love this studio. I signed up for the two week special, and thats all it took. Anna is an amazing instructor. Shes friendly, knowledgeable, and knows how to teach. Kelly also deserves mention for the beginners class. I specially love their patience and sense of humor. Im glad a found a group of women who respect and love the art, and I have learned so much in the few weeks Ive been going to the classes. They really break every single move down for you and differentiate for skill level and experience. So much fun!

The best dance instructors I have found in the area.Here you learn from day one!The lead instructor Anna, has a lot of experience, and knowledge about Middle/Near East and North African dances.They teach you from zero/little experience, and you can even become a certified dancer, even a dance teacher!Classes are affordable, and everybody there is very friendly. I love it!

Belly dance at BodyRaQ will change your life! Anna is such a wonderful teacher - she explains the movements clearly, gives you time to practice them, and peppers classes with cultural and historical facts about the dance form. Her classes are more than just exercise, although you will get a good workout! Youll learn different dance routines, work with dance props such as veils and zills, learn about the musical styles and instruments, and wont even realize youre also getting in shape. Shes supportive, high energy, and so much fun. Youll learn to move in new ways, love your body, and meet fun new friends!

I came here using one of the beginner specials and I am constantly glad I gave it a try. I never thought I could be a dancer and I never though I had the right body for it. The first class alone taught me I was wrong about both.The teachers here are wonderful at explaining things to students. I came in with no experience and never felt lost in the beginner classes. I also know many of my fellow dancers come from a background of dance and still find it challenging enough.I cannot recommend this place enough!!!

This place is incredible! The dance instruction is top notch, and you also get a deeper knowledge and understanding of this art form. And this is truly something anyone can do! I am forever grateful I found Anna and belly dance!

Anna is incredibly thorough in her training. She does not just teach the moves, but every aspect of Middle Eastern Dance. From history, choreography, costuming. props, performing etc. The teachers are excellent and they share their passion with each student they teach.

Amazing dance space, warm friendly instructors and easy convenient location. Anna offers a variety of levels from beginner to performance level belly dance. She is a vast resource for all things belly dance!

If you havent tried Belly dancing you must! It is fun, different and works every part of your body. Anna is an excellent teacher, she is passionate about this ancient art, and if you are a beginner she makes you feel right at home.

Anna is one of the most knowledgable teacher Ive known. She is kind and professional and will give you wonderful advise! Please look no further if you plan on taking a dance class, you wont be disappointed!

I am proud to be a student and dancer at Alham Academy! I started taking classes last year and fell in love with it so much that I joined the dance company. Anna is such a great teacher.
