Welcome to the Women's Bellydance Center Website!

We are more than just Belly dance!

The Women's Bellydance Center of Tallahassee started out as a place where women learn to express themselves through the art of Middle Eastern Dance, also known as Belly Dance. Since our inception we have added more styles of dance for you so you can explore the many possibilities available. Women all over the world have discovered that this is not only a form of dance; it is a way to love yourself, your body, and grow in confidence of your capabilities. This dance is for everyone! The WBC is a very accepting and supportive environment where women of all ages and backgrounds can come together and dance.                                                                                                                 Julianna

The instructors at the studio are all very knowledgeable and experienced teachers and dancers. They are more than happy to give you plenty of individual attention during classes, which will help you reach your full potential and grow as a dancer. The teachers are approachable and supportive, and you will most certainly feel at ease asking for assistance in your learning. The teachers are also very helpful in modifying moves for your comfort level if you have a health issue.                                 Rachel/ Isolda             

  I have had a lot of people ask about the size of our studio and mirrors - Our studio is 1200 sq ft with 24 ft of mirrors. Plenty of room for dancers. Pictures coming soon!

 

 Take a look around the site to see what the studio has to offer!

Listen to your Heartbeat and Dance!
