Get Bent public drop in classes are all about the fun! Whether you come for the music, the workout , the costumes, atmosphere or fabulous social time, you'll feel great.
Variety is offered not only in the classes - beginner, beginner workout, egyptian, tribal fusion, bollywood, zills and veil - but also with teachers, as there are eight to choose from.
The performance program offers two youth and teen troupes - Youth 9-13 years , Junior Performance 14 - 18 years.
For ladies that love to perform and dance exclusively with Get Bent there are three performance group options . Auditions are held each year in August.
1.The newbies! Don't worry, it doesn't take long to kick that scary feeling of joining a big group. The enterance program is for those who want to start performing, and want greater experience in the studio's three belly dance styles. Group performances are done locally throughout the Okanagan with the option of a few trips a year.
2. The Get Bent Local Troupe. For those that can make a restricted commitment to perform, practice and travel (because you have another life...kids, serious job, ect) All performances are within the Okanagan. Extra rehearsal time is kept to a minimum. Volunteer shows throught the year are expected, and there are many opportunities for compensated group and solo performances. Dancers must be well rounded in all the three studio styles and are encouraged to develop a specialty.
3. The Get Bent Tour Troupe. Dancing and performing are your life! (Or at least you would like it to be that way) This dance group is highly committed. Each year the tour troupe goes on a ten day tour the last week of spring break, and also tours numerous weekends throughout the year. Performing solos in each style is required. The tour group performs both traditional and modren belly dance styles while blending other dance influences into each season's show. Although not required, a background in other dance such as jazz, hip hop, ballet, or latin dances is helpful.
All teachers and dancers are representatives of Get Bent's four core studio values. - Belief in the Potential of People - Respect - Honest and Integrity - Dedication.
We are high energy and loads of fun!
