TRIBAL BELLYDANCE
American Tribal Style (ATS) bellydance is a fusion of dances, costuming and music from along the Romani Trail, also referred to as the Silk Road.
Developed by chance in San Francisco by Carolena Nericcio and her dancers, the defining concept of ATS is it's synchronized group improvisational choreography. The dancers share a common vocabulary of movements and use a cueing system to communicate with each other, creating the succession of steps live and on the spot without the use of choreography. Other key ingredients include trust, sisterhood, and group awareness. Being in the moment with the music and each other is another vital component to ATS.
This dance form is empowering and earthy, yet sensual and feminine. It never objectifies the dancer, rather, it celebrates her and her sisters as unique, divine and beautiful. ATS allows dancers the freedom to express themselves through movement without the confines of a choreography. Dancers schooled in this form of dance are able to execute a synchronized group performance at the drop of a hat, both to music they've never heard before, and also with ATS dancers they have never met!
