Sunday 1:00pm until 5:00pm
Peak Performance Dance & Fitness Center
Quezon City, Philippines
Learn the basics of American Tribal Style from Inez! She’ll teach you the fundamentals and foundations, slow and fast moves, some basic transitions, basic zilling, and concepts in the Fat Chance Belly Dance™ format, the base and originator of ATS.
You’ll get a taste of the history of tribal belly dance, the aesthetics and dance concepts of the style, the basic steps and families of movements, and the concept of group improv.
Wait – what? Group improv?
Yes! GROUP IMPROVISATION!!! That's what ATS is all about. You’ll learn to speak (and dance) a movement vocabulary based on dances from North Africa and the Middle East. It’s a language founded on control, contrast, and a smile of strength.
Let’s Start this Slowly
We’ll learn the basic dance concepts in FCBD and ATS, and practice the postures, positions, and placements. We’ll go into embellishments, then a few basic moves. In tribal, slow is super…duper…slow, so you’ll get a lot of tips on muscle control.
Now Let’s Go a Little Faster
We’ll do some leading and following using the slow movements as our warm up for the fast families of FCBD. You’ll learn the parent moves of the tribal families. There are over 60 movements and combinations in FCBD, so we’ll get started on the basics! We'll also practice a bit of zilling just to get your train fully on the ATS track!
TRIBAL JAM!
We’ll get the chance to use all our moves in a big class jam to tribal music! We’ll do both fast and slow moves, change leaders, and have fun!
WORKSHOP FEE: PhP 3,000 (includes handouts with ATS concepts and descriptions of basic moves and cues)
Invite your friends! Invite your students! Invite your classmates! We'd love to see you there!
