Oakland's original Urban Fusion innovator, Frederique David, comes to the IE! Don't miss this incredible opportunity to learn from one of Tribal Bellydance's Hottest performers! Two days of workshops, one hot show!!

Saturday, October 4 Workshops:

New 'Urban Tribal Style' Moves (Always Evolving): Skill Level 2 :: 12:30-2:30 pm

Want to add to your tribal vocabulary? Learn new moves with the ATS concept of lead and follow developed with non-verbal cues. Frédérique has created new Urban Tribal moves that have been inspired by a variety of ancient and modern dances with fundamental roots in ATS and Cabaret stylized belly dance. Class will begin with elementary yoga / pilates based stretches / exercises, ending with isometric upper body strengthening that will help develop excellent upper body posture for dancing as well as our daily life. Be prepared to focus on strong technique throughout the class. By the end we will all be dancing new tribal moves together, as a tribe. *Prior knowledge in ATS is recommended but not necessary. Frédérique will go over this concept in class.

Gooey Pops: Skill Level 2-3 :: 3:00-5:00 pm

Wanna learn the fundamentals in pop 'n lock? This class will guide and drill you through the fundamentals in applying pop 'n locks to gooey movements and how to combine them in an improvisational performance. These exercises will build muscle memory in order to apply the nuances, details, tempo change and most importantly, control you need for the deed.


Sunday, October 5 Workshop:

Charm Arms: Skill Level 2 :: 10:30 am-12:30 pm

Learn Frédérique's individual and unique approach with arms, upper-body gesticulation, and more importantly, exploration to find your own style. Arms are your opportunity to apply your manner, personality, and expression through dance. Often the focus are on hips and abdominals in your belly dance training. In the workshop, it will be all arms with torso, shoulders, and head subtleties for defined or refined expression, and let's not forget the final frontier in dance expertise...hands, right down to your finger tips. Frédérique has many details to share with you on hand and finger placement with a relaxed feel and look. In this workshop, we will work on obtaining elegance, grace, pose, and polishing your individual style. Strengthening, emotional expression, and drills specifically developed and designed by Frédérique for the this task will be the class focus and content.
