Irkosily Beledi

Irkosily Beledi is the sassy sister of Irkosily Veil. It was originally choreographed by Margo Adu O'dell and spiced up a bit by Schadia. This dance lets your sassy and playful side come out. It has some really innovative steps & gives you the opportunity to learn horizontal, vertical and traveling hip movements. Irkosily Beledi is fun, fast-paced & playful with touches of elegance and grace too. It is a great dance for strengthening and toning your abdominal muscles, hips, and thighs -- while being sassy!
