In these Covid Normal times, a minimum number of attendees are needed for this class to go ahead. You will be notified if the class needs to be cancelled. A minimum of 6 weeks participation is highly encouraged to start gaining an understanding of this dance form.

An open level environment for anyone new to belly dance, new to Group Improv, or an experienced Group Improv/Fusion dancer wanting to get back to basics.We will discover which muscles to use with healthy dance posture and technique and learn the Slow and Fast fundamental movements of ATS/FCBD®Style that make this dance form so unique - with its specific cues, body language and transitions. And moving on from there, we start expanding your technique and repertoire! We will work on the principles of “Improvised Choreography” (lead and follow) dance, explore the nuances of how to move with your fellow dance mates, and play with formations. Lots of short drills with fingers cymbals will be used to have fun and bring the dance to life!

Moving on from the ATS/FCBD®Style fundamentals, we start to seriously have some fun! We will delve into the more Advanced Movement Vocabulary, along with expanding Improvisation, Formation, Staging, Musicality, Finger Cymbal and Performance techniques. And just for fun, we often play with variations from ATS/FCBD®'s "cousin" format Global Caravan®.If you wish to perform, this is the class for you!

Plenty of opportunities will be available throughout the year to perform at local outdoor festivals and Melbourne Bellydance stage events.

This is also the class where we play with PROPS - such as Skirt Work, Flamenco Shawls, Pots, Baskets, and the performing troupe's personal favourite....SWORDS!

Minimum 6 months experience in foundations of movements and Group Improv dynamics is needed for this class.
