&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Kallisti Tribal would like to invite you all to their first ever
&lt;br/&gt;Inappropriate Hafla. It's all about being silly and having fun.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Have you been craving to do that new solo to the latest Justin Timberlake song but feel it's too cheesy to break out? Have you been wanting to put on an outrageous bedlah and get down to Madonna? Or maybe you have a little Moulin Rouge in you that's dying to get out? Feel free to bring it all to The Kallisti Tribal Inappropriate Hafla. The only rules are to keep it PG (we're trying to make this kid-friendly) and have fun with it!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Hafla will be free to all (byob and bring food stuffs) and will be segmented into two portions- the performance portion and free dance. If you're interested in performing, we will have 10 5-10 minute slots available. Feel free to contact me brooke AT kallistitribal DOT com.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;When: July 14th 3pm-8pm
&lt;br/&gt;Where: Lyra's place (email me for directions)
&lt;br/&gt;What: who knows?
&lt;br/&gt;Who: dancers, drummers, family and friends.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hope to see you there!

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;INTRO TO IMPROV TRIBAL BELLY DANCE at
&lt;br/&gt;The Promenade Dance Sport Facility
&lt;br/&gt;Sunday April 8 - June 2nd, 1-2pm
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The class will be geared towards people who have had at least one session
&lt;br/&gt;of belly dance in the past (experience with basic moves like shimmies,
&lt;br/&gt;body rolls, snake arms, etc.), though I can also offer "prep sessions" at
&lt;br/&gt;my house for those interested who need to learn the basics.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Improv Tribal Belly Dance is a series of moves that are woven together
&lt;br/&gt;through hand and verbal cues. In this sense, it becomes a universal dance
&lt;br/&gt;form wherein anyone who learns the moves and their cues can dance together
&lt;br/&gt;in an improvisational lead and follow fashion. It's a very liberating,
&lt;br/&gt;proud and joyful dance form that celebrates women in all of their shapes,
&lt;br/&gt;sizes, colors and emphasizes spontaneity, interaction and a fusion of both
&lt;br/&gt;individual and group dynamics.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The class will focus on American Tribal Style moves as well as other
&lt;br/&gt;fusion and tribal choreographies that draw from various forms of dance,
&lt;br/&gt;including Cabaret, African, Indian, Middle Eastern and Greek.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Each class will include a movement-focused warm up, drills/new elements
&lt;br/&gt;portion and a free dance period in which the improv movements are
&lt;br/&gt;solidified in a lead/follow to music. My goal is that everyone will know
&lt;br/&gt;and feel confident in dancing with basic moves in an improv tribal belly
&lt;br/&gt;dance format by the end of this class.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Class size will be limited to 15 students to ensure personal attention.
&lt;br/&gt;Students are encouraged to sign up for the 8 week session in advance to
&lt;br/&gt;ensure a space in the class.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;IMPORTANT NOTE: Please come in form fitting clothes that ensure easy
&lt;br/&gt;movement and comfort. NO COIN SCARVES OR DISTRACTING ACCESSORIES ALLOWED.
&lt;br/&gt;Please be kind and respect the right of your fellow students to learn in
&lt;br/&gt;non-distracting environment. Shawls and hip wraps are fine, as long as I
&lt;br/&gt;can still easily see your muscles/hip movements.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Class Rate: $12/drop-in rate or $80/8 week session in advance.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you have any questions at all about the class structure or need any
&lt;br/&gt;more information, or want to pre-register via Paypal, feel free to email
&lt;br/&gt;me brooke AT kallistitribal DOT com or message me through tribe.&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Dear dancers,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I am glad to post an announcement about my flamenco teacher's last show in DC/the US. Ulrika Frank, one of the most talented flamenco dancers AND instructors to have graced this city is moving back to europe this summer. It will be a huge loss for the area...(and needless to say i'll be very sad for a long while as her mentorship in my advanced studies has been invaluable) 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For those of us that delve into fusion, and that are moved by Tribal style, this would be an incredible opportunity to see a master at work--and to provide a sample of dance technique and stylization that is one of the foundations of Tribal belly dance. For straight up oriental style dancers, this is really a show not to be missed. PLEASE COME OUT AND SUPPORT A TALENTED ARTIST!

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Anyone planning on going to the Evening of Gothic Bellydance performance in DC this Sunday??
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There are workshops being taught during the day as part of the Durga Tour, then there is a show in the evening from 6:30 till 9ish with both local and out-of-town bellydancers performing.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I cannot afford the workshops but would love to go to the show.  I recently moved to the Eastern Shore of Maryland, I'm new here, new to the East Coast actually and I'm nervous about driving to DC by myself.  I may get lost or end up walking to my truck alone at 9pm in an unfamiliar town... not a wise idea.   Soooo, if there are any dancers from maybe the Annapolis or Severna Park area that plan on going, perhaps I could meet you somewhere around your area and we can carpool the rest of the way to the show.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Feel free to reply on here and/or send me a private message!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Address of the event is
&lt;br/&gt;5207 Wisconsin Ave NW
&lt;br/&gt;Washington DC 20015&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;My name is JT and I'm out here in Lincoln Nebraska and dance with Benu Dance Co. formorly In Your Dreams. We dance ATS, what I call old school these days. I grew up in Maryland, in PG County area but years have passed and my family have all moved to Annapolis. I'm coming home the first week in November for my brothers wedding and would love to see a show or meet up. My mother has never seen me dance yet, I haven't been home in 4 years..tsk. tsk. So my mother has no idea, I've never sent her videos either.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I read Tribal Pura will be in the area the second weekend but Tribal Dreams is at the same time. I would love to meet more bellydancers!&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The most exciting birthday gift that we've received yet is that
&lt;br/&gt;BRIGHTHAWK will be joining us from Colorado!!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;DRUMMING WITH BRIGHTHAWK
&lt;br/&gt;To Register: 301-977-4547, mzimani@consciouscollaborations.com
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Drumming is a very joyful experience and gets to be a whole lot more
&lt;br/&gt;fun when you begin to understand the language of the drum, basic
&lt;br/&gt;drumming technique, and a set of skills to help you get on board the
&lt;br/&gt;rhythm train. Join Bright Hawk for a fun filled class of drumming from
&lt;br/&gt;the heart, feeling the groove and creating the polyrhythm. Please
&lt;br/&gt;bring drums, percussion toys, and water. Some drums will be provided.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;About Brighthawk:
&lt;br/&gt;Bright Hawk is an inspired and inspiring story teller, djembe drummer,
&lt;br/&gt;performer, teacher and playful spirit. She shares her expansive and
&lt;br/&gt;playful spirit with the all night Fire Circle and drumming communities
&lt;br/&gt;she is a part of.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In 1994 Bright Hawk began performing with Mz. imani and Rhythm Alive!
&lt;br/&gt;She has performed with Circle Skin and Bone, Sister Adsum, Jeff
&lt;br/&gt;McBride, Abbi Spinner, and Billy Woods, to name a few. She has studied
&lt;br/&gt;Abdoul Doumbia from Mali for more than a decade and performs in
&lt;br/&gt;benefits for the Mali Assistance Project. She currently lives in
&lt;br/&gt;Boulder, Colorado.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please take advantage of the opportunity to study with this
&lt;br/&gt;extraordinary woman of the drum. And tell all your friends!!!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;_____________________________________________________________________
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The community potluck will begin at 5:00. If you know what you would like to
&lt;br/&gt;bring, please email Debby at dsugarm@efn.org. To limit our time in the kitchen,
&lt;br/&gt;please bring your dish ready to serve, complete with serving utensils. Please
&lt;br/&gt;provide an ingredient list for your dish, so everyone knows what is on your dish
&lt;br/&gt;(a 3x5 index card works great for this). Please remember to bring a plate,
&lt;br/&gt;eating utensils and a water bottle. We are collectively aware that we want our
&lt;br/&gt;potlucks (&amp;amp; our events) to create lot's of energy, with little to no trash.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thank you for taking all this in and Helping to Make the World a Better Place!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;peace matters,
&lt;br/&gt;The Soul Fire Inside Crew&lt;/div&gt;

LOL  All of you who did not come, well you just missed out on a lot of fun!   Once again, thank you all for everything!  Gypsy Fusion loves you all for it!!!  Looking forward to dancing &amp;amp; drumming with you all again some time soon!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hugs &amp;amp; Shimmies!

I had a great time meeting you all and dropping in on rehearsal on Thursday, and your performance at First Night was wonderful!  It was so nice to get in a little bellydancing during my vacation, and to get to meet some local dancers.  :)  I'm heading back to Indiana tomorrow morning, and am looking forward to rehearsing with my own troupe.  Hopefully I'll make it back for another visit in less than a year, but if not, I wish you all a fabulous new year.

&lt;br/&gt;I'll be visiting my parents in Severna Park from Dec. 23 through Jan. 2.  I know it's a long shot, but is anything dance-related going on (with Gypsy Fusion, or elsewhere in the Baltimore-Annapolis area) next week?  I'd love to catch some dance sisters in action if possible.  :)

&lt;br/&gt;It's a fusion group working with different styles of dance (african, belly dance, romany, flamenco) and inviting other artists to join and create new fusions. It also is about belly dance classes and performances in Ireland.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hey kids, 
&lt;br/&gt;i am planing a Niger food crisis benefit for sept 10th 7-10pm in sterling VA and i am looking for a few performers willing to dance and raise money for people in need. we buy Jewlery from these tribes so i think it is also upto us to try to help them out. all of the tips and money raised at this event will go toward feeding these people in need... 
&lt;br/&gt;looking for 4-5 solo dancers 5-8 min sets. 
&lt;br/&gt;please email belladonna@belladonnadance for more info. 
&lt;br/&gt;thanks! 
&lt;br/&gt;Belladonna 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;bellow is the posting from the Indigo tribe, who started spreading this awarness.... 
&lt;br/&gt;follow the link to the wbsite for more info on the food crisis.

&lt;br/&gt;Fulani, Tuareg, Woodabe Photos 
&lt;br/&gt;These posts about the crisis in Africa relate to this tribe in a number of ways: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;1) Yoga: These tribal people need help... consideration and non-violence is AHIMSA... if we see pain and do nothing, that is violence. Maybe this is an extreme viewpoint, but it's the way I feel... 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;2) Art: As lovers of adornment and beauty we must safeguard these tribal arts and the people who continue the traditions. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;3) Dance: this is a cause we can all get behind! This is a reason to dance! Create a hafla! Post photos from Africa Adorned all over the room! Donate your tips! Gather your friends! LET'S GET IT DONE! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;4) The Indigo: This company takes it's name from the Indigo dye that's used by the Tuareg people among others, and we've been GREATLY influenced by the arts of these people. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I know you may feel you don't have cash, but think of it this way: your electric bill will be late. Their BABY will be dead. The goat which gives milk to feed the whole tribe will DIE... Their way of life and folk arts will DIE. Which is more final? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Their entire way of LIFE is at risk, and the apathy of the world ushers it on...

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hello Folks!  Please bear with us as we get our tribe up and running!  We had our photo shoot this past Sunday (5-23-05) and we are waiting for the photographer to get us the proofs by the end of this week.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A little bit about us...There are three of us that have started Gypsy Fusion!  We come from 3 different belly dance backgrounds, American Tribal Style, Egyptian Cabaret and Folkloric.  And we come together to fuse the 3 together!  The path that we have been traveling in this adventure has been fun and exciting!  Never in our wildest dreams did we expect it to come together so smoothly and so quickly!  The troupe is only a month old and we are already getting gigs!  How cool is that!!  We will do our best to keep things posted as they come on this blog, so keep checking back with us!  Happy Dancing!&lt;/div&gt;
