SALIMPOUR INTENSIVE MONTHLY WORKSHOPS


Want to train in the Salimpour formats but can’t make it to Maëlle’s weekly classes? Or you are taking classes and you need a catch-up? Already hooked on the formats and craving more?

👉 These monthly intensives are just what you need!
✨ What’s inside each workshop?
  • 3 hours of dance goodness: Suhaila Salimpour Technique + Jamila Salimpour Vocabulary + Finger Cymbals
  • A well-deserved break to recharge
  • A smooth cool-down and stretch to end on a high note
💃 Who can join?
It’s multi-level! Beginners and advanced dancers train together, with tailored exercises to match your level.
🔑 Prerequisites
To join, you need some Salimpour basics under your belt:
  • an introductory workshop, OR
  • at least 8 weekly classes, OR
  • other Salimpour workshops
💡 Why? Because the Salimpour formats are unlike any other belly dance style. Everyone starts from the same foundations. And Jamila’s legendary vocabulary takes practice to really shine—especially when you’re adding finger cymbals into the mix!
Come dance, sweat, shimmy, and zill with us—it’s a workout for the body, brain, and soul.
