About Belly Heat
Movement with a purpose
Belly Heat is a dance fitness brand centered on rhythm, consistency, and movement that supports strength, confidence, and long-term growth.
It began as a simple sunrise practice and evolved into a structured way to build momentum through movement. Each class invites you to show up, move with intention, and reconnect with your body without judgment or performance.
This is a space where progress comes from consistency, not perfection, where confidence builds over time, and movement becomes something you return to again and again.
Every Sunrise Creates Change
How you start your day shapes the energy you carry forward.
When women gather tom move, breathing fresh air, following rhythm, and staying present, small actions compound. Each smile, each shimmy, each shared morning in motion strengthens confidence and creates lasting change.
Strength grows, joy multiplies, progress continues long after class ends.

The 77-Day Challenge
The 77-Day Challenge is a guided reset built around consistency, movement, and intentional daily action.
Instead of constant restarts, the year is broken into a small number of focused 77-day cycles. Each cycle offers enough time to create real change, settle into rhythm, and move forward without pressure for perfection.
Only a limited number of 77-Day Challenges are offered each year, allowing space for integration, rest, and life in between. Each cycle stands on its own, while still contributing to long-term growth that compounds over time.
About the Founder
Belly Heat was created by Uyanga, whose love for dance and movement shaped the foundation of the program.
After years of prioritizing work and putting movement on the back burner, dance became the catalyst for change. Starting later in life reshaped how movement was experienced, not as performance, but as connection, confidence, and freedom.
Uyanga created Belly Heat to offer women a space to move without judgment, reconnect with their bodies, and build strength from the inside out. Her approach blends structure with flexibility, discipline with joy, and progress with patience.
Belly Heat is built on showing up consistently and moving forward, without chasing perfection.
“For a long time, I waited to feel perfect before starting. Consistency is what actually worked.”
