Bellates® (Pilates for Bellydancers) was created by Bhrigha as a combination of Pilates with bellydance technique. This unique cross-training class is performed on a yoga-type mat, utilizing the benefits of gravity and a solid foundation, as you learn to connect to your core, tone and strengthen your powerhouse, lengthen and elongate for a lean body, as well as learning proper bellydance body mechanics, stomach isolations, authentic belly rolls, and proper breathing techniques. It also provides a classical “East Coast” Pilates mat workout and is open to all levels! Beginners get in touch with their core and more advanced students learn new ways of connecting with their body.

The class is taught by Bhrigha Rebecca Murphy, BA, Licensed Massage Therapist since 1995 (FL#MA20757), Certified Power Pilates® Intermediate Mat Instructor (2004), who brings a wealth of anatomy, physiology, and holistic knowledge, as well as a lifetime of dance experience & training to these classes. Formerly a featured bellydancer at Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure, Arabian Nights Dinner Theatre, the award-winning Shredd! Theatre Troupe/Ensemble, many corporate events in Orlando, FL and the Southeast, Bhrigha also taught beginner-advanced bellydance classes and created Bellates® to help her students. She is passionate about perfecting posture and is happy to share her unique workout with the Portland community!
