Find Your Flock: Discover Black Sheep Belly Dance!
Ready to discover something a little different? Come and fall in love with Black Sheep Belly Dance (BSBD)
🖤 Workshop 1: Discover Black Sheep Belly Dance
10.30am – 12.00pm
A branch from the roots of FatChanceBellyDance®, created by Kajira Djoumahna, Black Sheep Belly Dance offers a fresh take on improvisational dance, with unique combinations and cues that you can weave into your own dance creations, no matter what style you dance.
After a short warm-up, you'll get hands-on learning some of BSBD's signature moves and combinations. Heike (Akasha) will introduce you to the art of leading and following, including the exciting concept of leading from multiple directions.
We'll also explore the idea of making living art – using the stage and dancers creatively through some of BSBD's signature chorus structures and featured dancer formations.
🖤 Workshop 2: Sword – But Not As You Know It!
1.00pm – 2.30pm
Think a sword is just something to balance on your head? Think again!
Using slow, signature BSBD moves and combinations, we'll explore new ways to bring these movements to life with this powerful prop. Discover how to work with your sword to create something dramatic, expressive and unexpected.
After all, a sword is NOT a hat!
Please note: This is a single-sword workshop. You will need to bring your own dance sword. Both workshops are best enjoyed if you have some knowledge and experience of bellydance in any style.
