Tribal Techniques, Level 1 (beginning
and intermediate level)
with Jennifer Secrist Goran
Every Tuesday 6:00- 6:45pm

~ 303.440.3647
punch cards: 5 classes for $45 or 10/$80
What has made American Tribal Style (ATS) Belly Dance such a wildly
popular belly dance form? The power and presence of the
moves? The lush and exotic costuming? The sense of
community created by a group of dancers working together in an
'improvisational choreography'? All of the above??? Come
and find out for yourself with an instructor with almost 20 years
training in ATS! In this class you will learn the fundamentals of
tribal style steps, foot and arm placement, posture, simple zill
patterns and the mechanics of each movement. Although this
class is suitable for the new student, it is also beneficial for the
more advanced student to review, refine and
"polish" their ATS movement technique. Movements are repeated every 20
weeks or so. There is no official start or stop to the
sessions. You may begin taking this class at any point during our
curriculum as each week we break down the movements from the ground up.
Prerequisite: there is no prerequisite to start taking
Tribal Techniques.
Dress for class: Any fitted top and pants or skirt that provides
full
range of movement. Hip scarves, jeweled or tassel belts are
optional. Quest Center requests socks or dance shoes. You
will
eventually need a pair of zills (finger cymbals).
