About the Class
This Belly Dance Combination Class is appropriate for beginning and beginning-intermediate students. We will cover two levels during this one class. There will be one warm up at the beginning of class.
Level 1 Dance Fundamentals – Learn to dance by drilling the basics in fun combinations. Using both slow movements and fast steps, we'll get you dancing in your first class! All basic movements and group formations are covered including posture and body awareness, zils, and music. You are welcome to drop-in on this class after the course has started as we have plenty of review built into each class. There will be an introduction to partner and group dancing. Six-week cycle.
Level 2 – In this part of the class you will refine individual technique by drilling basic steps and their variations in creative combinations. Although open to all levels, Level 2 is best learned simultaneously with Level 1 Dance Fundamentals. You need an understanding of basic steps and partner and group dancing. Twelve-week cycle.
Additionally, in both levels finger cymbals will be incorporated with the ATS movement and some basic Middle Eastern rhythms. This special combo class will help build a foundation of techniques, moves, muscle memory, and confidence so that you can successfully move up through the next levels of the dance.
About the Instructor
Nancy a.k.a. "icy" has danced all her life, but found her way into belly dance in late 2001 while attending a wedding in Bellevue, WA. FatChanceBellyDance was enchanting and mesmerizing; and Nancy was drawn into their performance completely - it was so unexpected. Early on in 2002, Nancy started down her path into ATS/Tribal belly dance.
Nancy learned a mixture of vocabularies within the Tribal community allowing her to perform in a wide variety of events comfortably - both internationally and locally, with troupes and soloing, from private parties to large international festivals.
She is certified by Carolena Nericcio, Founder/Director/Master Teacher of FatChanceBelyyDance in her General Skills Certification (Feb 2009) and her ATS Teacher Certification (Aug 2009) and is now a FatChanceBellyDance Sister Studio.
