Customize That Choreo With Melanie
Because dance should fit you, not the other way around.
You just learned a killer workshop choreo—but something feels off. It’s beautiful, but it doesn’t quite fit your body, your vibe, or your style. So now what?
In this creative, hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to take choreography you’ve worked hard to learn and make it your own—without losing the integrity of the original piece.
Because dance is not one-size-fits-all. Every dancer brings their own strengths, personality, and flair. It’s time to let that shine.
What to Expect:
• A real talk on intellectual property—what’s cool to change, and what’s not
• Tips for adjusting tempo, transitions, and styling to match your aesthetic
• How to modify levels, arms, and footwork across different styles (think folkloric, cabaret, fusion)
• Practice on a short choreo phrase and start customizing it—your way
• Share your take and explore different interpretations in a supportive space
Come ready to explore, play, and celebrate your individuality. Let’s transform movement into something that feels like home.
Melanie is a passionate bellydance instructor and performer who graced major bellydance productions, lit up stages in Las Vegas, and proudly earned 3rd place at the prestigious Open World International Belly Dance Competition.
As the Director of Raqs Farasha, Melanie leads her troupe with creativity and heart, while also performing as a member of the innovative 4th Moon Dance Collective. Her love for storytelling through movement shines through every performance.
Beyond the stage, Melanie is a skilled performance coach and choreographer, helping dancers refine their technique, boost their confidence, and bring their unique artistry to life. Whether she’s leading a class, crafting choreography, or mentoring performers, Melanie brings energy, encouragement, and excellence to everything she does.
