Indian Fusion Belly Dance: This multi-level class begins with a yoga practice, warm up, drills, combinations and often some spinning technique. Eclectic belly dance movements (ATS inspired, Tribal Fusion and folkloric) fused with Indian movements, philosophy of Indian Aesthetics and yoga are all a part of this fusion.

Belly Dance Choreography: Gnawa - Belly dance choreography: North African inspired movements.

2:00pm - 5:00pm ~ The Lady Fred
The Art & Skill of Improvisation: Improvisation allows the dancer to connect to their deepest creative self, which in turn clears the way for pure invention on the spot. Frédérique will experiment with you on the concepts of shape, space, and time while moving without inhibition using intuition.
 
Monday September 8th
9:00 am - 1:00 pm ~ Colleena Shakti
Indian Fusion Combinations: New phrases which highlight a careful blend of Indian and Belly Dance.

2:00pm - 5:00pm ~ The Lady Fred

Workshop Descriptions:

Saturday September 6th
9:00 am - 1:00 pm ~ Amy Sigil
Hi! My Name is Improvisational Tribal Style, ITS Nice to Meet You : Days 1-3: This workshop starts at the very beginning of UNMATA's improvisational vocabulary. The concepts, the stall moves, leader position, lead changes, circles and chorus-lines. Inspired by Carolena's American Tribal Style, then re-vamped and re-styled to fit the powerhouse that is UNMATA. Level 1 and 2 vocabulary.

2:00 pm - 5:00 pm ~ Heather Stants
Moving Beyond: Through exercises, drills, and dance combinations we work to move beyond the intricate isolated movements of belly dance and into more expansive expressions of line, shape, gesture, interaction, and emotion.
Please bring a yoga mat and knee pads.
