We will spend the beginning of the day covering the foundational moves of the FCBD® Style of Belly Dance. Dawn will introduce you to the Shimmy, Swivel Step, Rhythmic Undulation, Pivot Bump and its variations, slow movements, basic formations, and chorus. We will explore how all of this comes together to create a totally improvisational dance. The second part of the day we will have an open dance and trunk sale, in which we will put on some music and dance together in a very informal setting. Additionally we will have some used costume pieces available for sale at reasonable prices.

There is a minimum of five registrants needed to hold this event. $50 for the whole day (Includes Morning, Afternoon, and the Open Dance). $30 for the AM or the PM lessons. $20 for the Open Dance.
