About Rosie

Hi everyone,

I teach, perform and hold workshops and retreats. I also host Haflas and Top Professional Teachers to perform and deliver workshops.

I love dance and music. I have done Irish, Scottish, Tap, Jazz, Ballet, World Folk and of course Bellydance!

I have been Belly dancing for over 20 years, starting in a very small way on my own and eventually finding classes and training. I attend workshops, JWAAD and other relevant courses and am constantly updating my CPT record. (JWAAD Safe Delivery of Belly Dance Level 3, JWAAD History and Culture Level 3, JWAAD Music Level 3, Making the most of your Support worker, Managing Challenging Behaviour, Marketing Your business, Deaf Awareness, Prevent, Safeguarding

I perform, teach, travel, write and speak on Belly Dance: History, Culture, Music, Confidence and Well-Being and many more topics related to Middle Eastern and Arabic dance.

I teach and perform a number of classes a week with different ages and abilities. I also have monthly commitments and ad hoc contracts.
