Aimed at the beginner or the more advanced dancer wishing to revisit and strengthen elementals, this course goes back to basics: over six weeks, we will become acquainted with the conditioning required to build the body for tribal fusion movement, and also be introduced to drills for building muscle memory of the fundamental movements.
By the end of the course, dancers will be acquainted with the basic components of the tribal fusion movement vocabulary, and will also have some practice integrating them into combinations. This class will involve yoga- and pilates-based conditioning, so come dressed to move and bring a bottle of water.

Over six weeks, we will put technique into practice--honing moves through drills designed to get you improvising and building combinations for dance. Each class will deal with a handful of moves in detail, and through these we will explore concepts essential to constructing one's own choreography, such as musicality, transferring movement, and fluidity in improvisation.
Aimed at the dancer familiar with tribal fusion, this class is for students who have completed the Elemental Movement course and are seeking to expand their understanding of the tribal fusion movement vocabulary and gain a sense of how movements work together. Classes may be taken as a course, or on a drop-in basis. This class will involve yoga- and pilates-based conditioning, so come dressed to move and bring a bottle of water.

"What's the difference between the Wednesday and Thursday classes? Am I ready to move on to Combinations and Drills? Can I come to the Thursday night classes if I have limited experience with bellydance?" --These are some of the most common questions asked by students, and this one-night special class intends to answer them.
All students should attend at least one course of Elemental Movement before moving on to Combinations and Drills, and students are encouraged to take Elemental Movement as many times as they feel necessary to get comfortable with the roots of good technique. But how do you know where you stand with the elemental movements?
Tribal Fusion 101 is a great chance to try the essential moves we put into practice on Thursday nights without taking the leap of registering for the full Combinations and Drills course if you're unsure. In Tribal Fusion 101, class moves at a brisk pace, drilling all of the basic moves in the hips, core and chest with minimal explanation. The aim is to put these moves into motion, drilling them thoroughly and precisely to feel one's own confidence with the basic technique. At the end of Tribal Fusion 101, you can get feedback about which class would be the best fit for your skill level.
Tribal Fusion 101 is the week before the February courses in Elemental Movement and Combinations and Drills begin, so it's the perfect time to drill the essentials and figure out which class is best for you.
