Three ways to find your joy through dance:

Online via Zoom

The best of both worlds! Learn in real time from the comfort of your home. Ask questions and get answers right away.

In Person

As we navigate the post-COVID landscape, I am slowly opening up limited enrollment in-person classes in Elgin, IL. 

On Demand

Total freedom! Learn where you want and when you want. See below for my latest announcement and serious savings!
COVID POLICY FOR IN-PERSON CLASSES:

In accordance with the State of Illinois mandate, all in-person students will be required to wear masks to class until further notice.

THIS JUST IN!

After quite a lot of planning and learning and preparing, I'm celebrating the launch of my on-demand online Belly Dance For Beginners Course. The wait is over and the course is available right now!

This course will be followed by a companion choreography course. Anyone purchasing Belly Dance for Beginners will get special pricing on the choreography when it releases.

What are you waiting for? Set yourself up for success now and start dancing with me whenever and from wherever you are!

Your instructor:

Let Christina show you how amazing it is to be part of the belly dance community. She believes in two things above all else in regards to dance:
  1. Dance is for every body, no matter one's age, size, shape, skin tone, or gender identity. 
  2. Through dance we can find empowerment, self-acceptance, confidence, community, and joy.
Now doesn't that sound worth looking into? Christina offers several live streaming classes per week, some in-person classes in Elgin, IL, and an online platform so you can dance whenever and wherever works for you.
Christina is an official Datura Style™ instructor, having completed 250 hours of training in the 8Elements program by Rachel Brice.
​
Additionally, she holds certificates in the first two levels of Zoe Jakes' DanceCraft program with the intention of continuing those studies.
