Frèdèrique began studying American Tribal Style belly dance in February of 1997 and after a long journey of experimentation and self realization, she is now known for her voix de ville (voice of the city) style and pushing musical boundaries by arranging music to enhance her conceptual narrative, creating a sound and sight stage reflecting the intricate nuances of her movement and complementing her technical skill combined with her depth of heart in performance.
NEW URBAN TRIBAL STYLE MOVES
(Always evolving!)
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 / palates 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.I will go over the concept in class.*
