Oriental Dance Classes
regular group classes
Classes & Levels
Beginner / Fundamentals
In beginners level, we’ll look at the basic core movements and isolations of Oriental dance. We’ll touch on the concept of folk styles and try out some simple combinations. No dance experience needed!
Open
In Open level we’ll look at more complex travelling combinations and layering of core movements. We’ll look further into folk styles, rhythms and props to start really building your knowledge and repertoire.
This class accommodates for different levels of experience and is tailored to the students enrolled.
Intermediate / Advanced
Private Lessons
For dancers looking to take their training to the next level, I offer private lessons tailored to your individual goals. Whether you’re refining technique, exploring new styles, preparing for performance, or seeking deeper understanding of musicality and expression, private coaching provides focused, one-on-one attention in a supportive and challenging environment. These sessions are ideal for intermediate and advanced students ready to grow their skills and artistry beyond group class settings.
Special Classes
Combo Lab
Combo Lab is a 30-minute session all about putting your technique into action. We’ll explore fresh combinations every couple weeks, try out different styles, and move to some of the hottest Arabic tracks.
Pop-Up Classes / Workshops
Pop-up classes will be announced throughout the year — covering a mix of styles, levels, and focuses like technique, combos, or choreography. Keep an eye on socials to stay in the loop!

Private Lessons
Private lessons are a great way to speed up your progress or get really detailed one-on-one tuition that is tailored to your level and goals. Private lessons don’t have to be just one-on-one, you can bring a friend and split the cost if you like. Private lessons are subject to availability. Please contact me for availability and pricing details.
“I have been dancing on and off over many years and have found my happy place dancing and learning with April Oriental Dancer. April is an exquisite dancer and a brilliant teacher, she has taught me so much when it comes to technique and every class is so much fun. Thank you April!”
