From the reviews
Alexandra is the best Belly Dance teacher in SB. I like that she emphasizes the proper technique to build a foundation for combining patterns into the musical interpretation. My favorites with her are veils, cymbals and the sword.
Alexandra King is an exceptional dancer and an equally exceptional teacher. She not only teaches technique but infuses historical roots and culture of the dances and its people.
Alexandra King is an amazing dancer, choreographer and instructor. She is knowledgeable and passionate. I've learned so much from attending her workshops and certification program. Every show I've attended that she helped produce, has been fabulous! - Deannza
Alexandra's classes are not just about learning moves. In her classes she includes the rich history, the rhythms and the many different styles of belly dance. I've enjoyed taking her classes for years.... never boring.
Your first ballet class at Alexandra King Dance
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
