Stepping into the New Year

​Hello and Happy New Year! 2025 feels like a significant year. In January 2020, I couldn’t imagine how much my dance business was about to change. And stepping into 2025, I am starting to find more focus and attunement with where I want to go!

I’m excited to get back to teaching online classes, and I’m starting small but with great intention! I’m thrilled to announce New Moon Barre Stretch – a monthly barre stretch class held on varying nights corresponding with the New Moon.

The New Moon is my favorite of the lunar phases. Symbolically, it represents a fresh start, and really being present in the moment. A snapshot to reflect where you are putting your energy, and embracing the mindset to make changes if needed. As we kicked off 2025 by making a big New Year’s Resolution, I love the idea of having a check in with myself every month, to ensure I’m staying true to my path, dreams, and heart.

New Moon Barre Stretch is a 45-minute class and will incorporate favorite stretches to help release and unwind, as well as gentle isolations to help strengthen our body. With the online format, I invite you to wear your pajamas, grab some tea, and create a little haven in your home, to connect with yourself each month.

Speaking of more change, I’m using a new tool to help keep me motivated and moving in 2025. I love this idea, though I may have been a bit skeptical how it would personally help me. And I am thrilled to say I’ve been enjoying the journey for far. Curious? I’ll be sharing on the official BalaChandra BellyDance Instagram page – if you haven’t followed yet, please do!
