Set your Course by the Stars!

Set your course by the stars and dash into dance with **Hip Motions Shooting Stars Workshop Series**. Our workshops are designed to help students and experienced dancers alike broaden their dance experience! What is a Workshop? These are common in the dance world and considered "intensives", a way to study with a specific instructor that sometimes you wouldn't normally have access to because they live somewhere else. It is also a way for local dancers to give a specific topic in a 2-3 hr timeframe instead of over a month or two in a regular hourly class. Think of it as a special 2 hour class with a professional dancer. Always a great way to enhance your dance and learn as much as you can!

Valentina’s Vibrant Vision - 1pm - 3pm ($40 in advance, $45 at the door)

Elevate your dance by working with the dynamics and elements of a performance. Learn how to work with musicality, level changes, energy, crowd, and environment in Valentina’s unique style. Master the elements of “less is more”. Valentina has learned throughout the years being exposed to dance structure that "more is better" she realized that doesn't work for everyone. Work with controlling the energy in the room and in yourself while also allowing some vulnerability without losing sight of technique.

Valentina is one of south Florida’s most sought out performers. She started studying the art of raks sharki (BellyDance) at the early age of 12 years old. Valentina’s love for raks sharki (BellyDance) has taken her across the globe to study with highly sought out performers. Her love for the art has taken her all over the United States, South America, and the Middle East.

Valentina is known for her elegant style, stage presence, and knowledge. She graduated from the University of Central Florida with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. Her goal is to integrate her education and artistry to further women’s mental health and empowerment in the international sphere.
