Phoenix Belly Dance

The best thing about belly dancing is that it is a way for women to take time for themselves, have fun, make new friends, improve fitness and learn a new skill. We try to promote it to all women – of any size, age, culture, shape, background or ability.

In 2011, Candice started an initiative called the Phoenix Belly Dance Scholarship which is available to all students who have a serious desire to further their instruction in Belly Dance and develop their interest and passion in the dance. We’d like to help dancers to realise their potential and to encourage their interest in belly dance! Our recipients have all grown so much in this dance form, it has been a pleasure to witness. 

Recipients:

2012 - Molly Dennis, Nicole Sharman

2013 - Rachel Boyle

2014 - Jennifer Richardson

2015 - Bex Wilson, Evge Niia, Tamara Raschka

2016 - Jyotsna Poosalingam

Each year, the Scholarship recipient will receive:

• Two terms of free belly dance lessons
  
• Two free private one-on-one lessons
  
• And 40% off the price to attend the Belly Dance Weekend Retreat
  
• Photo Shoot with Nina G Photography
