ROC'N Wednesday! Pure Onyx Movement Is Back At The 2017 R.A.N Expo


I am excited to announce the return of Pure Onyx Movement at the 4th Annual Roc-A-Natural Hair, Health and Beauty Transform Your Life Expo, Saturday, May 13, 2017 at The Watson Hotel, formerly known as the Holiday Inn Midtown, 440 West 57th Street, New York, N.Y. 10019!

Pure Onyx Movement will be delighting us with an alternative to fitness Belly dancing workshop and a performance to include interactive audience participation. Belly dancing is an art form that embraces all woman and teaches you to revere the curvy female contour, something that society has told us was too much to love. Abundance in flesh is considered a bonus and belly dancers of all sizes and ages discover and enjoy confidence in displaying their shape. Women dancing together create an atmosphere of empowerment and trust.

Pure Onyx Movement uses the art of Belly dance for inner womb healing, and as a way to pay homage to our ancestors. Belly dance or raqs sharqi or the dance of the east, dates back more than 6000 years. Rooted in Africa, Bellydance is one the original art forms of dance. Belly dancing evolved from ancient spiritual movements that honored fertility. As the survival of our species relied on our success in reproducing, our ancestors devised rituals such as the belly dance to gain favors from the fertility goddess. The earthy, sensual movements are said to unite the body with the spirit of the Earth. Belly dance was also used in the temples of ancient Egypt in various rituals. The people used dance to celebrate festivals, harvests, warriors, love, marriage, life, death, births and just danced for fun.

Many today considers Belly dancing as an alternative to fitness and one of the main movement principles of belly dancing is isolation. You will be moving one part of the body and relax the rest of the body and that’s a challenge. It’s a mindbody concentration that takes a little time to be able to do that, but that’s what actually gives you such a great workout. For instance, when you do a figure eight with your hips, you’re going to keep your chest perfectly still and that’s going to add resistance and work your side abdominal muscles. That’s what gives you a good waist.

To learn more about this fun alternative form of fitness, join Pure Onyx Movement for a 30 minute interactive Belly dance and fitness workout at the 4th Annual Roc-A-Natural Hair, Health and Beauty Transform Your Life Expo or by visiting their website at www.pureonyxmovement.webs.com.
