Friends, class is this Saturday and I want to see you there!

Join me, Tirra, for SharQui Bellydance Workout on June 13 at 10:30 am at Global Education Center. We are going to move, have fun, and feel amazing doing it. This is not your average workout.

It is good music, good energy, and good people moving together.
Come experience what happens when you stop dreading exercise and start looking forward to it. Your body and your spirit will thank you.

🎨 Did you know a license plate can fund the arts?

In Tennessee, the Specialty License Plate Program provides 80% of the grants awarded to arts organizations across all 95 counties — including programs right here at the Global Education Center.

When you swap your plate, you invest in dance classes, cultural education, and the community-building work that makes GEC possible.

Here's how easy it is:
✅ Visit your local County Clerk's office
✅ Ask for the Tennessee Arts Commission License Plate
✅ Swap your old plate (tag fees are prorated — no waiting!)
✅ Drive around Nashville repping the arts every day
