Hi, I'm Sara and am so happy you are here!
I'm a fusion belly dance enthusiast who supports and empowers dancers that want to have a deeper connection to their body and soul through fusion bellydance so they can confidently step into their authentic selves.
I've been obsessed with the magic of dance for as long as I can remember and a devotee to Fusion Bellydance for 15 years. When I'm not teaching, practicing, or learning, you can find me chasing my toddler around and exploring the world with my husband (ok, pre-covid but finally getting closer to traveling again!)... and probably still nerding out or thinking about dance!
Let's discover, evolve, and transform together, the world needs your art!

Your All Access Pass
The dancer you want to be is already within you! This is a guide to help you on your journey. Here you will be given the tools and space to explore your creativity and refine your technique in a self-paced format. Each class has detailed and thorough instruction while completely breaking down movements at a comfortable pace before diving into more challenging concepts or technique. Even though there is a computer screen between us, it is my ultimate goal to give you the tools you need to create quality practice habits and proper form and beautiful technique!
You will have warm ups, drills, technique, choreography and strength training in the comfort of your home as well as a warm invite to join our private, supportive facebook group to connect with other amazing movers all over the globe.
The All Access Package is for the enthusiastic and dedicated dancer of any level. New classes are added regularly to keep you progressing, along with bonuses (like music playlists & goal tracking) to boost your motivation and keep you moving after the class is over!
Typically $20 will be the cost of one drop in class at your local dance studio. For this same price each month you have access to an evergrowing library of 100+ classes, workshops, full choreographies (and more) at your fingertips with full control of your learning pace. Pause and rewind are great features! This price of this package will increase in 2022 so lock yourself into this rate now!

More packages from Sara Lyn:
The Fundamentals are so important! These are the building blocks for a strong foundation to your dance, without them we are not able to speak fluently to our audience. This course takes you from the VERY beginning and progressively becomes more challenging with each class.
Little to no dance experience? No problem! This series was carefully designed for the beginner dancer as well as one who would like review of basic movements, because let's face it.. we are never too good to revisit to the Fundamentals!
This package is INCLUDED in the All Access Package
