American Tribal Style Belly Dance - Instructor Jennifer Secrist-Goran:
Thursdays 6:00-7:00pm; Ongoing, drop in class
What has made American Tribal Style (ATS) Belly Dance such a wildly popular belly dance form? The power and presence of the moves? The lush and exotic costuming? The sense of community created by a group of dancers working together in an 'improvisational choreography'? All of the above??? Come and find out for yourself with an instructor with almost 20 years training in ATS! American Tribal Style (ATS) Belly Dance with Jennifer: In this class you will learn the fundamentals of tribal style steps, foot and arm placement, posture, simple zil patterns and the mechanics of each movement. Towards the end of class we work on putting the movements and steps together in formations geared towards group improvisational dancing. Emphasis for this portion of class will be on gaining leading and following skills thru development of cues, transitions and fundamental formations. Although this class is suitable for the new student, it is also beneficial for the more advanced student to review, refine and "polish" their ATS movement technique, cues, formations and transitions. Movements are repeated every 20 weeks or so. There is no official start or stop to the sessions. You may begin taking this class at any point during our curriculum as each week we break down the movements from the ground up. Contact Jennifer: instructor@tribenawaar.com 303-859-5599 Thursdays 6:00-7:00pm drop in class: $12
Level 2-3 ATS with Jennifer is offered right after the level 1-2 class. Thursdays 7:00-8:00pm instructor permission required for the Level 2-3 class.
