Tribal bellydance is a fun and empowering dance form that creates camaraderie, celebrates the feminine form, and builds core strength. This class will be specific to American Tribal Style (ATS) as established by Fat Chance Bellydance. ATS utilizes non-verbal cues to allow a group of dancers to improvise and dance together in the moment.

This class will focus on conditioning and drills appropriate to beginning dancers as well as experienced dancers interested in refining technique. Conditioning exercises provide a foundation to build the strength and flexibility to execute movements safely and gracefully and drills will aid in committing tribal style movements into muscle memory. Over six weeks, you will learn basic tribal bellydance posture and movements, as well as the cues and formations to dance in a group improvisationally. Other topics, such as costuming, dance history, and music appreciation will be presented.

No dance experience is necessary. Please wear comfortable, close-fitting attire, and a quiet hip scarf (no coins) if you like. You will need zills by week three of the session.

This class follows the FCBD Format
