Class 2 Strike a pose! Spinal articulation technique for evocative poses in belly dance

A pose can be amazingly evocative and it can be banal depending on how you execute it. One element that is typically overlooked in bellydance instruction is the role of your spine and spinal articulation in expressivity of our body language. Today we’ll learn to add spinal articulation to poses - the most obvious application of expressive body language.

Evocative, lyrical arm patterns and gestures for belly dance - step-by-step plus practice in mini-combinations; Level: Open

Class 4 Art Deco Dancer Poses in an Oriental Dance/Belly Dance Routine

Oriental dance routines always have a section of cinematic music that is larger than life - sometimes it's a grand entrance, and sometimes it's a refrain. This is a very melodic section with a soaring, swirling melody and dramatic accents. We'll add that choreographic grandness to our Oriental dance routine by exploring the elegant and streamlined poses often associated with Art Nouveau and Art Deco images of dancers.
