Review β„–1

I was looking for belly dancers for my friends suprise birthday party. I got way more then I could hope for! There was fire, swords, and of course dancing. They even managed to focus on the Birthday girl without leaving out the rest of the attendees. They wore mask when they interacted with the guests and had special attire to hide there face mask so it didnt pull away from the vibe and decor. The perfect balance of fun and professional!!! Totally rehire πŸ₯°

The place is close and they don’t mind saying this. Drove from really far as it says it was open and now I arrived to find out the place doesn’t exist anymore !

I took my first class two months ago with Portia and absolutely LOVED IT! I definitely recommend trying her Cardio Dance & Conditioning class. If you want something upbeat and fun try this studio! The class was awesome with modern music. She really keeps you motivated to keep going and keeps an eye on all her students. Loved the energy and vibe. Cant wait for my next class... signing up for more :-)

The belly dancing level 1 class was fun, a light to moderate workout, I broke a sweat; the instructor, Alessandra, provides thorough technique verbally and physically. The environment is very clean, overall very inviting. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Portia and her Belly Motions team are the best! Portia is an excellent dancer and a wonderful teacher. All the classes break down the lessons so anyone of any age can learn. I have been going for many years because I love it, I get a great workout and my technique improves all the time. Thanks Portia...

My 2nd home! Home away from home! Ive been a student at Belly Motions for some time now and It has made me grow as a person and a dancer immensely. Im humbled by the opportunities the studio has provided me to express my love for the art of belly dance. The teaching methods advances anyone in any level to improve and nourish their desire to dance. My teachers are my mentors and have been there for me in any dance occasion and in my own personal life at times. The minute I walked into the studio I fell in love...In love with the art, the environment, the teaching methods, everything! I have also created amazing friendships with the girls that attend class. I recommend everyone to walk in and Judge for themselves, you will not be disappointed.

Fabulous teacher, fabulous workout. Belly Motions is so much better than the average workout! Portiass classes have clear movement directions, individual attention and a great knowledge of which muscles we are working on.... while we are dancing to great music. Im a dancer and I take classes here. The Low Cardio workout is for everyone at whatever level you are. Small group sizes.

Ive been going to this studio since i was 16 and am 23 now. I have learned and grown a lot, Portia is an amazing teacher, shes encouraging, helpful, supportive, has incredible experience and my personal favorite bellydancer. There is no way you cannot grow to love this woman, and the other teachers that work at the studio are amazing as well. Their spirit is lively and wakes you up to a positive attitude every time. I always leave feeling satisfied and fulfilled!

Very welcoming environment. Warm and loving instructors and non judgmental. Teaching skills are like no other studios. Ive visited a couple before and I couldnt of learned to the level I am in now anywhere else. Very professional dance studio. Besides all the technical aspects, it empowers women, brings unity, and encourages the art of dance in its unique way.

Belly Motions is a great studio! I highly recommend it for all the people who wants to try belly dance, African dance, Samba, Bollywood and Indian classical music. Even yoga, cardio dance and conditioning, and Zumba!The teachers are simply amazing! Everyone has a unique style, you choose the one who fits you best! If you need supplies like hip scarfs, shirts, pants, dance shoes, dresses, some jewelry, and beautiful art by local artist and teacher of Belly Motions, Alexandra Molina.Basically, you can find everything!I love Belly Motions!

I love Belly Motions I have been going and attending since 2008. I have learned with all teachers, each has their own beautifully way of teaching and different technique. I feel welcome and empowered by this beautifully dance. Love the yearly show and fundraise event that we can dance as student and wear our costume.

Review β„–27

As a longtime student of Belly Motions, I feel encouraged to chime in. Belly motions is expensive. There is no doubt about that and at times they take desperate measures to make money (burned CDs used to be free with a workshop, now they make you buy the CD ...and charging $15 entrance for a movie night where you sit on a yoga mat and watch a movie on their cheap TV? What the heck?! That costs more than a movie theater ticket!). I laughed at the comment about all of the pictures of Portia in the studio. Its really true! She has pictures of herself plastered on every wall. It looks like a temple for Portia worship! LOL! She is often self-absorbed but I believe that she is kind at heart. The reason why I return to Belly Motions is because it is the closest belly dance studio to my house and its light exercise. Now on to what bothers me the most about Belly Motions - they have no sense of community. They do not support other dancers in the community unless that dancer happens to be hosting an event that will give Belly Motions exposure. They discourage students from taking classes with other instructors. How can a student grow without studying with others? They also discourage students from performing outside of Belly Motions, especially if that means performing professionally. This make me question their intentions. Overall it is not a nourishing environment if you plan on going pro one day.
