Fusion bellydance /"Transnational dance", is a largely improvisational dance style, inspired by folkloric dances of the Middle East, North Africa, Spain, and India.  It celebrates the strength and beauty of diversity and dancing together in a group. It is suitable for all genders. 

The FCBD®Style (ATS®) / (Fat Chance Bellydance) style that serves as the foundation for the dance moves, is a low-impact dance style incorporating slow and fast movements. Each movement is well defined, and has a cue to allow followers to easily anticipate what is coming next.  There is a dance leader, who interprets the music and selects moves for others to follow.  Other dancers are positioned behind the leader in a formation and follow from this position. The leader rotates throughout a dance, so that everyone has an opportunity to assume this role, if they desire.  

FCBD®Style (ATS®) is truly a global/transnational dance  that invites participants to share in the feeling of being a part of something bigger. It affords the opportunity to experience parts of the world one might never otherwise have been exposed to. It’s a beautiful reminder that every time we dance, we are weaving together stories, traditions, and connections across cultures. Whether dancing to World, Spanish, Balkan, Indian, Nordic, Celtic, Latin, alternative, classical, modern, or other music, there is something for everyone!

If you are 18+ and are seeking a non-competitive dance experience in a supportive environment, this may be what you are looking for. All body types are welcome and the dance is LGBTQ2+ friendly.  We'd love to hear from you and welcome you to come and dance with us!
