Ever been to a ren faire and wanted to learn the style of dance you saw? Look no further than this Tribal Fusion bellydance class! Come learn the basics and have fun moving with us.

Tribal Fusion is a western (mostly American) style of dance inspired by various forms of bellydance from all over the world. This class will focus on laying the foundations of movement in this torso driven art form, from the ground up with an emphasis on hip articulation. We will also focus on isolating different parts of the body. 

As we progress through classes, we will learn how to layer movements, traveling while moving, and level changes!

No skill or experience needed. 

Please bring:
- coin belt or hip scarf (limited number are available to borrow during class only.)
- water bottle/hydration
- small towel for sweat
- yoga mat (optional)
- notebook for notes (optional)
