Welcome to the FatChanceBellyDance® On-line Studio! I'm Carolena Nericcio-Bohlman and I am delighted to meet you. Please join me in the first of six classes introducing the basics of American Tribal Style® Belly Dance. We'll start with a description of ATS® and a warm up stretch, and we'll learn the importance of Posture and the Moving Mediation before we add two slow steps: Taxeem, Hand Floreo and finally a quick and fun overview of the 4 families of fast steps: Egyptian, Arabic, Pivot Bump/Choo-Choo and Shimmy. Oh, and drills...lots of drills!
