Review of Bellydance Level I (Introduction to Belly Dance), October 18, 2009

This was the very first bellydance classes that I took. Amy paced the class very well that I can enjoyed the class from the first moment. The classes had very good energy - good music, great movements and workout and students in the class have good concentration. I actually work and live on the eastside, but I remember every wednesday I'd look forward to Amy's class and it totally worth the commute. Everytime after class I felt uplifted and energized and happy!

And just as all the other reviewer said, Amy is amazing teacher. She pays a lot of attention to the students so I got enough attention even it's a group class. Bellydance involves a lot of internal muscles and a lot of times it's really hard for the teacher to describe where the "trick" is. But Amy uses very well intuitive instructions and gave us visual help, so I can easily understand the magic that I needed to work on.

But what's the best is that Amy is simply a gorgeous, inspiring and amazing being. She's a very earthy, warm person and kept her students well connected. Because of Amy, I got to participate in the parades, bellydance retreat (it was tons of fun and amazing!) and always informed with cool bellydance shows in the area. I'm really glad to know Amy!!

Review of Bellydance Level I (Introduction to Belly Dance), October 17, 2009

Amy makes you feel good about wiggling your hips, encourages you to be comfortable in your body, and breaks down bellydancing into foundational movements. You may be a beginner now, but stick to it and you're building towards being a gorgeous dancing goddess. My only disappointment in the class is the lack of a sense of community. I half wanted to try something new and half wanted to make friends (I'm quasi-new to the area and fighting against the "Seattle freeze"). Alas, no friends, but my buns are toned and my abs are tighter. And Amy is just a really great person.

Review of Amy Horn, March 15, 2009

I've worked with Amy intermittenly over the past 2 years participating in parades, randomly bumping into her at classes, then finally taking her class, being in her workshops, and simply hanging out with her has been awesome. This is a person with so much charisma, GORGEOUS, and yet is so down to earth/Big Sister-ish it's freakin great that she is also a skilled performer and instructor. I was not able to complete her entire series with Seattle Central, but in that short time I learned how to actually DANCE! Not simply performing move after move with technical precision, but making use of space, spins with precision (I'm top-heavy so this was a goal of mine!), and getting into earthy, gypsy style moxie, all of which is what I feel my dance journey was leading up to. Amy was, and continues to be a phenomenal source to draw from; she offers her palpable energy always and unconditionally. She has even led workshops as a favor to me in which she only made a handful of sngles compared to the info that was offered; how cool and un-diva-like! Excellent/Simply the Best is not too far off a description of Ms. Horn, TAKE HER CLASSES, ESPECIALLY BEGINNERS, YOU WILL SHOCK YOURSELF WITH YOUR PROGRESS.

Review of Amy Horn, March 15, 2009

She has the patience and understanding to work with anyone. Amy pushes you to always do your best and what she knows you are capable of. Her choreography's are original and fun. Amy's attention to detail in her classes helps you feel you have gotten the most possible out of her classes. Her prices are reasonable and you will always have room for advancement in Amy's classes. You could not have a better teacher in this challenging dance form.
