A dancer's dream
There is nothing like the soft, ethereal flow of silk; especially as an ultimate feminine expression in your dance.
Interest in Karima's gorgeous hand dyed silk veils is growing; and they fly off their hangers quickly!
Each veil is its own unique creation to add to your elegant bedlah. They are made from real Habotai or China Silk, durable yet lightweight, and available in either rectangle or half-circle shapes.
With every colour you can imagine, the perfect veil of your dreams is waiting 4U!

Anyone can enjoy the endless benefits of belly dance; and now you can explore it with trained teachers within the art form who really know how to show you!
Brantford's Only Belly Dance FOCUSED studio: Previously affiliated with a Toronto M.E.D. school, Karima Helou established her own belly dance groups since moving to Brantford, Ontario in 2002. Ancient Moves Dance Company was officially born in 2006 and has nestled into a beautiful studio that specializes in this art form only. Area women can now enjoy the benefits of this art as a regular part of their fitness schedule and achieve far beyond beginner levels if they desire. Ancient Moves Studio cultivates a unique, relaxed atmosphere (staying true to the art) where there are no signs of dance competition or attitude. Students benefit most in a setting where they are inspired to grow in their own way ... enjoying a beautiful, blissful escape to the belly dance world.
Classes run in Fall, Late Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer seasons at all levels: Beginner, Recreational, Intermediate, Advanced and Specialization. Exciting, guaranteed original choreographies.
