and Folkloric dance, technique for tuning your zills,
and getting different sounds from them, then a short

Stage Dynamics for the Multi-level Troupe:
Utilize and incorporate the different experience levels and skill
sets of all members of a troupe & student troupe for stage performances. Simple and effective techniques for creating layers of breathtaking eye candy for your audience! While based in Tribal Improv theory, Britt teaches how these techniques can be useful for
troupes of any genre.

Traveling Steps:
Learn to glide across the stage with ease, as Aradia teaches many of the beautiful traveling steps from the Lebanese style of dance. Fun and sassy layers will be added, as well as entrances and exits to get you on and off the stage to a Malfouf rhythm.


Intro to Tribal Fusion:
