Subscribers to my Belly Dancing newsletter have been asking me for ages to find the best free online Belly Dancing Lessons and put them all in one place. So that’s what I am doing here. This is the equivalent to having free Belly Dance classes in your own home. I will also be reviewing some of the dvds that are available for learning belly dance too.
I’ll state right now that none of these videos should be a replacement for “live” dance classes. Belly dancing with a teacher in a live class environment is definitely the best way to learn. But, as many of you have told me, a local class is not always available, or your classes aren’t moving quickly enough for you, or you just want to brush up on your skills between lessons. I hope this will help all of you in those situations.
All these videos have been graciously recorded and placed on the Internet for everyone to use. Thank you to them for letting me use their work. Please be aware that if a video stops working it may be because the publisher has removed the right to use (embed) the video on another website, in which case you will need to go to YouTube or whichever site the video was originally put on. In as many cases as possible I will credit the creator of the video.
To find the videos you need please look at the categories on the right. Videos will be separated into categories for Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced, plus DVD reviews etc. Within categories there will also be categories such as shimmies, arms and so on. Gradually, I will be building up a library of videos, so if you get confused in your search, please just do a full blog search.
Now, without any more ado, here are your online Belly Dancing lessons – happy shimmying!

P.S. Please remember that Belly Dancing is an exercise as well as an art form, and should be approached with this in mind. Always warm up and cool down, do not attempt moves that feel uncomfortable for you, and always consult your doctor before attempted any exercise if you have health problems that may affect your ability to dance.

Thank you, this is a very informative and helpful website. I did a belly dancing course which finished over a year ago so I don’t do it as much now, but am always inspired to have a little dance when I look at this website.
