Bellies in Beirut
From the village shimmy, to the Lebanese hip circle, to zar head, moves taken from Middle-Eastern folk dances give this episode a particularly authentic feel and remind us of the joy of being with a community of dancers. Our gorgeous Shimmy Dancers next teach that signature move that no belly dancer's repertoire can be complete without: the belly roll. For some it comes naturally, for others it takes and effort. Take it slow, following the break-down exactly, repeating if you until you can smooth it out, and by the end of the episode you'll be able to roll along with us!

When Calls the Heart
When Calls the Heart is inspired by Janette Oke's bestselling book series about the Canadian West, the series tells the captivating story of Elizabeth Thatcher, a young teacher accustomed to her high society life, who receives her first classroom assignment in Coal Valley, a small coal mining town where life is simple, but often fraught with challenges. Upon arrival, Elizabeth befriends Abigail Stanton, a wife and mother whose husband, the foreman of the mine, along with a dozen other miners, has just been killed in an explosion. The newly widowed women find their faith is tested when they must go to work in the mines to keep a roof over their heads. Set against the wild canvas of a 19th century coal town, Elizabeth will have to learn the ways of the frontier if she wishes to thrive in the rural west on her own.
