INTRO TO IMPROV TRIBAL BELLY DANCE at
The Promenade Dance Sport Facility
Sunday April 8 - June 2nd, 1-2pm
The class will be geared towards people who have had at least one session of belly dance in the past (experience with basic moves like shimmies, body rolls, snake arms, etc.), though I can also offer "prep sessions" at my house for those interested who need to learn the basics.
Improv Tribal Belly Dance is a series of moves that are woven together through hand and verbal cues. In this sense, it becomes a universal dance form wherein anyone who learns the moves and their cues can dance together in an improvisational lead and follow fashion. It's a very liberating, proud and joyful dance form that celebrates women in all of their shapes, sizes, colors and emphasizes spontaneity, interaction and a fusion of both individual and group dynamics.
The class will focus on American Tribal Style moves as well as other fusion and tribal choreographies that draw from various forms of dance, including Cabaret, African, Indian, Middle Eastern and Greek.
Each class will include a movement-focused warm up, drills/new elements portion and a free dance period in which the improv movements are solidified in a lead/follow to music. My goal is that everyone will know and feel confident in dancing with basic moves in an improv tribal belly dance format by the end of this class.
Class size will be limited to 15 students to ensure personal attention. Students are encouraged to sign up for the 8 week session in advance to ensure a space in the class.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please come in form fitting clothes that ensure easy movement and comfort. NO COIN SCARVES OR DISTRACTING ACCESSORIES ALLOWED. Please be kind and respect the right of your fellow students to learn in non-distracting environment. Shawls and hip wraps are fine, as long as I can still easily see your muscles/hip movements.
Class Rate: $12/drop-in rate or $80/8 week session in advance.
