Testimonials

"For anyone thinking of taking up bellydance teaching or someone who has been teaching but without a set plan, then this package is invaluable... I found the whole package impressive and only wish it had been around when I started teaching." Review by Ayesha - Editor Bellydance Oasis Magazine 2008 

"I have had the fire in my belly stirred up again with Shemiran's beautifully presented course for teaching bellydance...This was the perfect way as a working single mum to get my dream up and running. I found Shemiran's course inspirational and easy to pick up. It has a warm and kind feel to it and is very intelligently put together...Thank you Shemiran". Lisa H. 2008

Empower the Feminine

A three part series

The Feminine has been beaten out of individuals, girls and boys, and society at large for so long, that our world is like a desert dying for some rain to bring back the balance. The female body, feelings and sensuality, the expression of emotions, imagination and intuition, and everything else that is of a Feminine nature became demonised in our history. The result is generations upon generations of women disconnected to their true femininity, deprived of a joyful experience of their feminine bodies, and what it really means to be female.

As a teacher and performer of the ancient practice of Belly Dance, I have seen how this dance has imbedded within its movements and practices a very powerful antidote to the degradation of the Feminine that we all suffer from today.

If you’re asking “what is the Feminine?” please read on, these articles are for you! If you understand the gender of things, and feel the excruciating imbalance in our personal lives and around the world, I hope this series of articles will give you some solace and further information.

This series of articles includes three parts;

Part 1; What is the Feminine? Understanding the Principle of Gender.
Explains the gender of things in simple terms.

Part 2; What happened to the Feminine?
How the Feminine got denigrated and how it affects us all today.

Part 3; How to Empower your Feminine spirit through Belly Dance
