Bellyup Bellydance

Based at the Tuggeranong Arts Centre in Greenway, Bellyup Bellydance brings the artistry and joy of belly dance to Canberra's south. This is a warm, community-minded group that celebrates the dance as much for its expressive movement and connection as for the fitness and coordination it builds, welcoming dancers of all ages and abilities into a friendly, inclusive space.

The school spans two distinct belly dance traditions, with teachers guiding students through both Oriental and FCBD-style tribal forms. Students can expect a supportive learning environment where technique is built gradually, costumes and performance are part of the fun, and the emphasis stays on shared enjoyment rather than competition.

Beyond the weekly classes, Bellyup has a performing side that brings polished choreography and vibrant costumes to local events, giving members who want it a path from the studio to the stage. Whether you are drawn in by the cultural richness of the dance, looking for a creative way to stay active, or simply wanting to meet like-minded people, the Greenway studio offers a genuinely welcoming entry point into belly dance in the capital.
