Desert Journey School of Dance describes the journey through each of the styles in Belly Dancing.  The journey from Traditional to Cabaret, American Tribal  to Urban Tribal, Folkloric through fusion styles.  Our school celebrates all forms of Middle Eastern Dance and provides a wide variety of classes to teach you all about belly dancing movements, the different styles, and the history of Middle Eastern dance.

Desert Journey is currently located at 3500 South 1251 West in West Valley City, Utah, inside the Mountain Path (MPMA) studio.  We offer a variety of instructional classes designed to take you through the journey from beginning to advanced, as well as a variety of technique classes and specialty classes designed to teach you isolation, choreographing, floorwork, and more.  We design Belly Bance to be fun and educational, and to increase your strength, flexibility, and overall fitness.
