Raqs Sharqi
Beginner
No prerequisite
Bellydance Basics
Congratulations! You've taken the plunge and have decided to try Bellydancing! Literally translated Raqs Sharqi means "Dance of the Near East" but is also referred to as Cabaret. This is the style that most Westerners are familiar with as it is often seen in restaurants, festivals, weddings, and various other celebrations. Traditionally Raqs Sharqi is an improvised solo dance, however dancers may also dance choreographed pieces in groups. This is where it all begins! Learn basic bellydance technique and gain a better understanding of this ancient celebration of the female form. We'll put it all together in a fun choreography.

Fine tune your craft while you hone your skills and develop your stage presence. This term we'll be tackling a fresh and minty Pop choreography to Yamnana.
Tribal Fusion
Prerequisite at least one session of Intermediate Bellydance or permission from the instructor.
Tribal Fusion flowed out of American Tribal Style and is sometimes an improvised art form, but certainly not always. From my humble point of view, I would say that the key word in Fusion style dance is “evolution.” Oriental, Cabaret and American Tribal Style provide the solid platform from which Fusion artists can jump in order to create their ever-changing style. Tania likes to think of her particular style as "Theatrical Fusion" as she likes to tell stories (usually slightly weird ones) through dance.
Tribal Fusion with Tania
Tuesday 6:00 - 7:30pm
This year marks 10 years as a dance teacher for Tania, and she's feeling both nostalgic and super grateful about it. Who knows what she has in store for 2019!
