The Motion Bliss

Dabke is one of the best Cardio you’ll ever have 🔥

Anatomically speaking, Dabke can elevate your heart rate.⁣ ♥️
It's quick steps will boost your agility, endurance and precision to stomp your feet with the music, it will also activate your calves as you stand and spring constantly on the front of your foot.⁣ 🦶🏻

The jumps and feet floor stomping will fire up your Quadriceps, activate your glutes and lower back to bring you back up.⁣ 🍑 🦵🏼

To hold the posture and turning will improve your proprioception and body balance.⁣ 🌀

To learn different step sequences improves your cognitive thinking and memory.⁣ 🧠
⁣
On social and cultural level, Dabke carries a huge history and cultural background⁣ 🤓📚

Dabke is the folkloric dance of the Levant, it's joy in celebrations and anthem in sorrow times.⁣
This dance doesn't discriminate, is made for men and women, old and young, is a dance for all. Represents unity.⁣ 🙂☀️

If you been following this space, you might have noticed we’ve been very VERY quiet, my life got a detour that took me to a different country.
With sadness I had to let Harakat Studio behind me, however the friends, learnings and experiences came with me to my new home in The Netherlands.

A fresh start, same passion for dancing, teaching and empower women and girls to be the best version of themselves in and out through movement.

Stay with us during this transition.
I will be teaching in different locations around The Netherlands and online on a more regular based.
Keep tuned… you will hear from me soon 🫂💋

2021 when Harakat Participated on the annual Warrior Princess at Lake Umuzi
It was such a fun day to share, in Harakat we did a lot of activities outside of the classroom to bring us together and break the routine ❤️🌻

❤️ back to January 2020
After tons of paperwork, and permissions delays, Harakat started promoting Bellydance classes early January with a free trial class to kick off February 2020, little we knew that COVID-19 would hit us all and send the world into a lockdown.
Very soon classes had to be cancelled and me and my friend Nadine, the owner of Lpfit studio whose venue I would use for my bellydance classes were among the many affected businesses in Secunda.

Happy faces on our last day of classes

Thank you for support all these years, it has been an absolute pleasure to dance and train with you❤️

Harakat is permanently closing but you can follow my dance adventures on my personal account on IG and Amar Lammar on Facebook.

Harakat SM will keep online for a short while sharing memories and unseen footage material through these years as well as the students who had made from Harakat a wonderful place of Art, Fitness and Confidence.
Thank you! DANKIE 🙏🏼
