Workshop descriptions:
Saturday, February 8th, 2020
Tribal Bellies Studio located in the Body Dynamics fitness Center
1810 County Line Rd. Huntington Valley, PA
10AM- 11:30AM
Across the Floor with Tessa
We all can imagine the quintessential Belly Dancer in a low light night club draped in silk and captivatingly dancing on a dime. But what about when you have a whole big beautiful stage to fill? Do you have to tools to move yourself across the floor, seamlessly get from point A to point B without just looking like your walking? Work with Tessa as she teaches you fun foot patterns, undulating traveling combinations and the sassiest strut that take you sweeping across the stage.
$50
12:30PM- 2PM
BIG Juicy Combos! with Tessa
Want to take your dancing up a level of lushness? Join Tessa as she shares some of her signature combinations. Sure to be packed full of exaggerated 8's, gyrating locks, rolling undulations and some drop kicks! If you're feeling like you want some ready made combinations that ooze sensuality and gush, this is the class for you!
$50
Both Saturday Workshops - $90
Sunday, February 9th, 2020
Pennsylvania Dance Institute
1458 County Line Rd. Unit G Huntingdon Valley, PA
10AM- 12PM
BellyEsque with Tessa
All that Shimmies & Shakes: The Unconventional Jiggle
Come rediscover some of your favorite conventional shimmies with a new twist and some not so conventional (think thigh giggling, Tata tornadoes, booty flicking love) After we get all nice and loose we'll put our new tricks to test featuring them in some of Tessa's most over the top combinations that shine a spotlight on the graceful sensuality of belly dance with showgirl sensibility and sauce.
$60
1PM-3PM
Partner Play (AKA #dancewifelife)
With Jo and Rose of the Lunachix
It takes two to tango. Two heads are better than one. All that jazz - it's true tho! The only thing more fun than dancing alone is with somebody else! Even if you are a soloist, this workshop will address creative choreography generation and clean technique. All levels welcome to learn some combinations that will rock with one body, or two, or seven. Come on Sunday for a little #dancechurch with the sometimes honorable Rose and Jo!
$60
Both Sunday workshops - $110

West African Dance with Shelby
Shelby Jones Collett has been dancing her entire life. She’s studied many forms of dance as a young girl, but truly fell in love with the art of West African dance in 1998 in Montana! Since then, she has been living in Vermont where she’s studied with Sidiki Sylla and Seny Daffe of Burlington’s West African Dance troupe, Jeh Kulu. She owns her own dance and gymnastic school in Rutland, Vermont where she enjoys teaching all ages in gymnastics as well as Tribal Bellydance.
This workshop will be a journey of joy and storytelling as the style of West Africa Dance emotes all. Basic steps and isolations will be introduced, then a traditional dance from Guinea will be taught, danced and celebrated. Class will end with a circle of inclusion, honoring our connections to our drummer, ourselves and each other.
Fantastic Fans with Ameena :TBA
Dance the Heartbeat of Light and Shadow with Tempest
This workshop focuses on a balance between "light" and "dark" concepts - particularly sacred vs. daily movement, invigorating vs. calming - rooted in Arabic/folkloric dances from North Africa (Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Egypt, etc) and the Mediterranean. In this workshop, you will not only deepen your understanding of the folkloric dances we will explore - especially their key movements and music, but you will also take home with you practices and exercises that will energize and renew your dance! Suitable for all levels and styles of dancers. Please bring a 3 yard rectangular veil and water.
Tempest pulls from her visual arts background, literary tendencies, and global inspirations to create dance that crosses the boundaries of time and culture. Her compellingly artful performances exemplify her distinctively theatrical, unique, and expressive style that are rooted in oriental dance technique with a transcendent approach. Tempest's fascination with sacred and ritual dance lead her to bellydance over 20 years ago, and the exploration of Myth is an important and recurring theme in her work.

Mira Betz is coming back to Catskill in April of 2020 to teach a Solo Performance Intensive!
REGISTER HERE: https://www.francescaavani.com/workshops/mirabetz
About this intensive:
A unique, versatile approach to the bellydance intensive, a week-long designed for experienced dancers, who are looking for inspiration from an artistic standpoint and who are interested in honing their ability to express through dance on stage. This intimate group exploration will stretch your notions of how dance can be striking on stage, and allow you to unlock new areas of creativity in your bodies and your mind. The seminar brings together many of the styles and forms from dance to theater which Mira has carefully integrated into an exciting, powerful, liberating approach to creation, including: personal expression, musicality, historical and contemporary contextual analysis, structured improvisation and choreography making tools, focused writing exercises and more.
This exciting extended intensive offered in the beautiful Catskill, NY will include an additional workshop in a professional theater with Mira and a lighting technician. They will cover lighting terms, color play and costuming, and how to utilize the lighting you have available to you to enhance your presentation on stage. The final culmination will include an optional public performance and a video of your finished piece (regardless of participation in the final performance). Mira creates a warm, supportive environment focusing on growth potential and risk-taking. It is for those enthusiastic about performing, working towards performance or wanting to take their performance skills to the next level.
