Beginner belly dance notes:

1, learn belly dance, even if you do not have a strong sense of rhythm or the stomach hangs on the "swimming circle" is nothing to be embarrassed about. The body should be open, can not be stiff, or not only can not play a fitness effect, but also a blow to self-confidence.

2, belly dance requires wearing loose comfortable pants, bare feet or wear dance socks. Before and after the course must follow the coach seriously soothing exercises to prevent muscle strain.

After eating 30-60 minutes before practicing, practice should not be bathed within 1 hour after the end of the shower, because the skin sweats a lot after the exercise, the pores expand, hot and cold stimulation is harmful to the body.

3, women in menstruation can be adjusted according to their own physical conditions on the amount of exercise, the degree of intensity, too violent between rows of shaking crotch and other movements should be avoided.
