Just wondering if you've checked out the Middle Eastern Belly Dancing Class....if so, how is it?
I've gone to the Masala Bhangra class and LOVED it! Hope my expectations for the belly dancing class are similar...

I am jumping in here, though I am a member of Crunch. I have taken belly dancing at a dance studio and classes at the gym.
at the dance studio, they are teaching you to be a belly dancer, and the gym, they are using techniques of belly dancing in an aerobic way. it's fun, but if you are a belly dancer, it may seem a bit simplified....but it's still a lot of fun- just maybe a bit watered down? I dont' really know how to explain it well.
have fun- they have masala bhangra at Crunch too. I was thinking of taking it.

I've gone to it before. It was fun! but i don't feel I get as much of a workout as I do when taking other classes, so I only go once in a while.

It's awesome! I really loved it. Basically it's an Indian dance that's set to the Indian drums and then thrown in with some Hip Hop and Reggae....it's hardcore aerobic...lots of jumping around and dance moves...
I love classes like that - more dance 'related' - such a workout though!
Oh, here's a description from the NYSC website to describe the class:
masala bhangra An Indian dance-inspired workout that uses the sounds of the Dhol drum mixed with mainstream music such as reggae and hip-hop.

I haven't checked out the new classes yet, I still have the damn winter/spring schedule!!!
Usually I just take the kickboxing classes, but who knows, the belly dancing could be a better bet!! (and easier on my screwed up knees!!)
