Mon, 7 - 8pm (Kimberly)
Using isolations and footwork, you will begin to learn a vocabulary of specific moves, each with their own pattern variations, turns, and arm positions. Then, you will use a system of signals that will enable you to non-verbally communicate your dance intentions to your fellow dancers so they follow you smoothly through your combination of moves. Slow Taksim & Fast moves will be covered.
Tribal celebrates the origins of the dance as a community experience, an expression of celebration shared between dancers. Learn to dance smoothly in a group, transitioning between leaders, followers, and formation changes... it’s lots of fun!
Bring your zills; we’ll work on particular zill patterns with each move we learn.
No tribal experience is necessary, but dancers should be familiar and feel comfortable with all Level 1 isolations. We recommend dancers also continue taking other technique-focused belly dance classes since this class will focus on transitions, patterns, styling, and the group dynamic.
July - Taxim and All that Oozes
Tribal is a new style of Belly Dance that combines elements of dances from the Middle East, India, Spain, with Modern and Western innovations. It takes the traditional, combines it with innovation, and continues the evolution of the art of belly dance.
