Workshop #1: American Tribal Style Bellydance
After a grounding full body warm-up, this class will introduce you to the basics of American Tribal Style bellydance as created by Fat Chance Belly Dance of San Francisco. These slow movements and fast steps are easily recognized by the global family of Tribal dancers and can be used in any setting. Learn to both lead and follow, and create small group dances at any skill level to the beats of a live drummer.
Workshop #2: Big Asana Yoga
Big Asana is a safe space for people with larger bodies who may not have felt welcomed and honored in other movement classes. Perhaps you were discouraged by a sequence that wasn't designed with your body in mind or have dreamed of practicing in a room with other people with big bodies. We believe in the possibilities inherent in all bodies, that you can be strong, balanced, open, relaxed, and adored at any size. We understand how to help you become comfortable and serene in any pose you want to tackle and can give you space to create a relationship with your fullest self. As an added bonus Zach Beery will be playing Indian Tabla to set the mood for you to go deeper into your practice.
Workshop #3: Dancing and Drumming Together
In this class Angie Never and drummer Zach Beery will explore 8 common rhythms of the arab world and how one might explore dance steps to these drum beats. As a drummer, one can find the basic groove to help your dancing friends enjoy the thrill of movement, and we will know we are doing a good job when the smiling starts. As a dancer, one can find the downbeat in the groove and where to start your dancing feet with some simple combos. Dancers and drummers of all skill levels are welcome, and the class will run according to who would like to attend.
