Hit, wave, and roll - Funkifying your bellydance and bellydancifying your funk (events » arts) Saturday, July 18, 2009 - 3:00 PM 100 RSVPs I'm pleased to finally be teaching in SF for the first time

Hit, wave, and roll - How to funk-ify your bellydancing and applying bellydance technique to funk styles and hip hop.
We will be going over how to utilize bellydance technique to create illusory effects in popping, contracting different muscle groups to create a hit, breaking down boogaloo rolls in bellydance terminology, and flipping arm waves inside and out. I will also be discussing different dance styles that are commonly performed with popping, and the distinction between popping and locking.

So, the list is up and I am not one of the performers at Tribal Fest this year. I am completely heartbroken.

Since January I've been taking locking classes at City Dance Studios in SF. I've been interested in learning how to lock for a few years now, but haven't really been able to figure it out. Bellydance always kinda took priority. But, I figured I'd sign up for the 10 week session, bite the $$$ bullet, and finally get my lock down. Thursday night we had our performance at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. I was really happy with how it went. Learning a new dance form is NOT easy, p... read more
