Belly Dance near Kailua Kona, Big Island, HI

Welcome to Aloha Belly Dance! We hold belly dance classes and workshops in South Kona, within 20 minutes of downtown Kailua Kona.

Classes and How to Be Informed

Classes are held at SKEA, the Society for Kona’s Education and Art, in South Kona.

Classes HAVE BEGUN for Winter Quarter. To get your first class free, please “opt-in” using the form to the right.

Class times are on Saturday mornings, from 10:45 AM – Noon, except for holiday weekends, and a few times when there is a day-long workshop at SKEA.

Three ways to be sure that you have the latest word:

  1. Use the Opt-In form on the right; this will give you weekly emails – schedule updates, cool self-study resources, music lists, etc. Look for your Monday Morning Message from Alay’nya.
  2. Check this web page; but really, who can remember to do that? Use the Opt-In form on the right. Opt-In. Confirm. Move the Alay’nya on behalf of Aloha Belly Dance emails from Promotions or Junk to your Primary Inbox. (REAL important!)
  3. Check Facebook; and of course do that “Friend” thing, and ESPECIALLY check in on Aloha Belly Dance!

Class Schedule

Class schedule for Winter Quarter, 2020: January – March: Saturdays,  (10:45 – Noon): Regular class – Introduction to belly dance with veil – no known class cancellations at this point.

Things to bring:

  • Yoga mat.
  • Water. (Coffee, if you like – the Menehune Coffee shop is just a few hundred yards further up the road towards Kona, makai.)
  • Veil (preferably: at least three yards long, and silk; currently, we’re working with four yards long of iridescent silk chiffon; you can buy the raw yardage from Mood Fabrics; if you don’t have a veil, I have some simple polyester ones that you can borrow during class.)
  • Zills. (If you don’t have a pair, order a set online; I’ve always ordered mine from Turquoise International.
  • Notebook (so you can record notes on techniques, music that we’ve used, recommended YouTubes, etc.).
  • Yourself!
