"FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT BELLYDANCE AND SALSA"
"FREQUENT QUESTIONS ABOUT BELLYDANCE:
"Q: Will bellydancing help me to lose weight? Will it give me a flat stomach?
A: Yes, bellydancing will help you to get a flat stomach, as well as lose weight, because bellydancing is a full cardio workout. But you must maintain a good balanced diet and exercise at least 15-30 min. per day, if you are serious about losing weight.

A: Yes, because bellydance is a low-impact, moderate exercise. When bellydancing pregnant be sure to avoid sharp hip movements and listen to your body and do what feels comfortable to you.
