In our ongoing belly dance courses (levels A to M), we learn a new choreography on a new theme each course period. A course period lasts 8 weeks, and there are 6 course periods a year. The themes reflect the diversity of oriental dance, with choreographies set to oriental pop, drum solo, classical oriental, and oriental folklore. All courses of the same level dance the same choreography, so you can easily catch up a missed class in another course without falling behind.

In all ongoing courses (except introductory courses and workshops), you stay automatically enrolled for the next course period, unless you cancel up to 21 days before the end of the current one.

You'll find information on the subscription, the catch-up system, and our terms and conditions here.

At ZeoT, you'll find a diverse team of teachers, bright, spacious studios, and a timetable that leaves nothing to be desired.

If you'd like to attend more than one dance course per week, the ZeoT Abo is perfect for you!

Register for two ongoing courses via the registration form, and you can attend as many ongoing courses as you like without pre-registration. (For administrative reasons, you're registered for two courses.) Excluded from this are the fully booked courses marked on the timetable, unless you are registered for that course with the Abo.

The Abo is valid for one course period; missed lessons cannot be made up in the following period.

We offer all dancers with a Legi the Abo for CHF 450 (instead of CHF 490).

If you've completed an introductory course with us or already know the basic movements, you're ready for the beginner course.

In A, you revisit and practise the basic movements and the movements built from them, and add further isolations and steps. Dance accessories like veil and cane come in too, and you'll get to know the basic oriental rhythms.

As a beginner, you can also join our Shimmy and Oriental Dance Technique classes (open level, without choreography).

For dancers with around one to two years of experience. You combine isolations of the pelvis and upper body with steps and arms (layering), learn new movements, and perfect your existing repertoire and dancing with accessories.

For dancers with several years of experience. The movements become more three-dimensional, combined with steps in different directions and tempos. You'll get to know further accessories such as the double veil and cymbals, and improvisation and expression grow in importance.

No choreography, just time for technique. Isolations, steps, and combined movements are explained, practised thoroughly, and danced in short combinations or improvisation. Ideal for beginners who want more practice, advanced dancers refining their base, or anyone who prefers technique to choreography. We offer technique at open level and from A/M level.

Known for its variety, from the proud dances of the steppe peoples to graceful court dances. Each course period brings a new style and a short choreography: fan dances, water sleeves, umbrella dances, peacock dance, Central Asian and Tibetan dances, and more. For anyone who loves variety and something new.

Two worlds meet: the subtlety, sensuality, and inner-muscle work of oriental dance, combined with the broader lines, weight changes, and power of jazz and contemporary dance.

A dynamic group dance with led improvisation, where leading and following alternate, always with cymbals. Basic FCBD knowledge is required (leading/following, trio and duet formations, basic vocabulary, cymbals).

Fitness with a twist: strength, stamina, and shimmy technique in a non-stop 50 minutes. Different shimmies every session. Shut up and shimmy!

Strong, sensual, and playful. In this class you move with confidence and attitude, learning to own your walk and feel completely yourself in heels. You'll build strength, posture, and stage presence while learning choreography with a sultry, powerful edge. Open to all levels, no experience needed. You can dance barefoot or in proper heels (dance shoes), whatever feels right for you.
