Seven-Week Beginner's Dance Session

Learn
the ancient art of women's dance. Become uniquely more beautiful, regardless
of your figure or age. Become sensual, powerful, and alluring. Allow even
your smallest gesture to become compelling. Integrate your "internal energy"
with your everyday life. In a seven-week introductory course with Alay'nya,
you will learn a new way to "be in" your body. You will become more dynamic;
more elegant and sensual at the same time. (In just the first class, you'll
learn "body presentation" secrets that will make you look as though you've
lost ten pounds!) By the end of seven weeks, you will have mastered a
simple dance. You will also move more confidently, more gracefully, and
more beautifully. You will tap into a "new you," accessing new energy
from within.
