What my Badass Students say…

Private Classes & Party Lessons
I have found confidence I never knew would be possible. I have a group of sisters that don’t judge and lift each other up. I have found self esteem that has taken a lifetime.
Being in an environment of empowered people learning together has healed many parts of my soul.
This dance is something everyone can do and it speaks the same language of connectivity and togetherness. I am better in so many ways for conquering the fear. I am more patient, loving, empowering, focused, and spiritual due to this amazing experience.

Before taking the program I was a little lost and unsure of my physical capabilities. I was recovering from a running injury but still wanted some type of physical activity for my health. I had also wanted to try belly dancing but in my previous marriage I did not feel secure nor supported in doing so. While taking the courses in person and online I felt very supported by those around me and when I needed help. I had found friends and a family! My favorite thing was learning the history of the moves. My experience was an extreme confidence booster!! I would tell anyone thinking about it to definitely give it go!! Even for the friendships created, it's worth it.

I cannot recommend Black Cat Belly Dance enough! Sol is a fantastic, friendly, and knowledgeable teacher. She is nit-picky in the absolute best of ways. I made the best and fastest progression in technique while learning from her. She also gathered together other amazing teachers in her online school to teach a variety of techniques and styles. I've loved every class I've ever taken with Black Cat Belly Dance!

I've been going to Black Cat Dance for about 10 months now, and I can't say enough great things about this studio! It's so hard to find dance classes for adults, but this place is absolutely perfect. Sol is an incredible teacher, she creates a welcoming, empowering environment where we can express our feminine side, no matter our age or physical status. The classes are fun, engaging, and truly help build confidence. If you're looking for a place to move, grow, and feel amazing, this is it!

I have been a part of black cat belly dance for a few months, and have already learned so much. I was nervous to take the leap, but it’s the one thing I do for myself and look forward to class each week. The women in the classes range from all ages, shapes, and backgrounds. That’s just one of the things that makes it so fun and a judgement free zone. Sol, the teacher, is AMAZING. She’s so sweet, knowledgeable, patient, but also pushes us past our comfort zone. And her dancing is beautiful.
If you’ve ever considered stepping out of your comfort zone, doing something fun thats good for the body and soul, join Black Cat Bellydance!

If you are in the Mt. Juliet, TN area, I highly recommend Sol at Black Cat Belly Dance Studio! She came to a private party and taught us all how to do low impact belly dance moves (our group contained women ranging in ages from ages 53-74). It was so much fun. We definitely want to check out her in studio group lessons!

had always wanted to get back into dance, but it wasn’t until I found Black Cat Company that the spark returned. For the first time in years, I felt excited to dance again—to feel like a woman, to reconnect with the part of myself I thought I had lost. This dance brought me back to my old self—my confidence, my sexiness, my joy. It challenges my mind, strengthens my body, and gives me the chance to make new friends. It’s a reminder of how beautifully we can grow and transform.
Dancing again has made me feel powerful, fearless, and alive.

If you've ever wanted to feel stronger, more confident and lose weight at the same time, I can't recommend this bellydance class enough. Sol creates a welcoming, uplifting space where every student- no matter their age, size, or experience feels celebrated and supported. Each session blends graceful movement with style and energy. After class, you walk out feeling happier and proud of yourself. If you are looking for a positive class that blends skill, sisterhood, and exercise all at once, this is the class for you.

What is ATS®
( American Tribal Style®)?
ATS® is a unique dance style created by Carolena Nericcio. The movements are inspired by folkloric dances of the Middle East, North Africa, Spain, and India. It celebrates the strength and beauty of working together as a group. Formatted steps, cues, eye contact, and the familiarity of musical phrasing allow dancers to stitch together an improvisational tapestry each time they dance.
