About Shimmy Social!
Greetings from Alexandra and Valerick!
We’re so excited to invite you to our Shimmy Social events—a joyful blend of dance, community, and celebration! At Belly Dance Stories, we believe that dancing is a powerful way to connect and share stories, and we’ve created Shimmy Social as a space where dancers of all levels can come together to have meaningful connections and grow.
Shimmy Social is more than just a dance event—it’s a women's networking experience where women of all walks of life can connect, share, and celebrate the art of belly dance in a supportive and empowering environment.
Our Mission & Vision
Our mission is simple: Community. Our initiative is to cultivate a welcoming space where women can expand their network and build relationships in meaningful ways. Our vision - well - we see YOU! A community of brave, vulnerable, smart, beautiful women that support each other! THIS is your new favorite way to network!
What to Expect at a Shimmy Social
Each Shimmy Social is a unique experience filled with fun, connection, and creativity. Here’s what you can look forward to:
A unique Belly Dance Class: Thoughtfully designed, this beginner-friendly belly dance class weaves in guided networking and dancing. Taught by both directors, Alexandra and Valerick, it’s guaranteed to open doors to new friendships and connections.
Live Performances: Watch (and meet!) incredible dancers from our community share their artistry and passion on stage.
Networking & Community: Meet fellow dancers, instructors, and industry professionals in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
Local Vendors: Browse from local vendors and soak in the lifestyle of belly dance! Shop gorgeous belly dance costumes, class wear, and accessories to enhance your dance journey.
A Celebration of Dance & Culture: More than just a class or a show, Shimmy Social is all about embracing belly dance as a way to express yourself and connect with others.
Our Next Event!
Mark your calendar! Our next Shimmy Social is happening on Sunday, March 2nd, and it’s going to be extra special. We’re teaming up with OnBeat Miami and welcoming Arielle, a talented dancer visiting from Egypt. She’ll not only perform but also bring a stunning collection of belly dance costumes and class wear for you to explore!
