Brenda Bechtel
Certified Essence of Bellydance Teacher
I have always had a passion for music, art, and dance. I started taking belly dance classes in 2009, exploring various styles and techniques. However, when I discovered the Essence of Bellydance method, I was truly captivated. I love its natural movements and earthy feel. Through this style, I enjoy expressing myself through dance from the inside out.
I’ve come to realize that no two dancers are exactly alike, even though the same movements are taught. Each dancer interprets this beautiful art form in their unique way, allowing for the freedom to dance authentically.
As a fashion designer and professional seamstress for over 40 years, I am now teaching the Essence of Bellydance method and designing my Body and Soul brand of earth-inspired dancewear. and designing my Body and Soul brand of earth-inspired dancewear.
