11:30-12:45 Veronica Lynn: Sharp As Knives
Carve those isolations sharp enough to cut a man! In this workshop we dive deep into the musculature that allow for small, precise, and snappy isolations. Using targeted exercises for various muscle groups followed by challenging drills, we’ll explore what it feels like to nail precise isolations and create fast, interesting lock patterns on the fly. (Intermediate to Advanced)

12:45- 2:00 Liz Azi: Micro to Macro
You’ve drilled for years to get all your isolations crisp and perfect! But are you now stuck with small movements that may be hard to see from a larger stage? In this workshop, Liz will have us explore getting back into huge and juicy movements that take up SPACE!

2:30- 3:45 Olya Clarkson: FIRE ARMS!
How do you achieve that gooey, flowy, mesmerizing intelligence in your arms that is awesome enough to stand as its own movement? And can you imagine, instead of the standard “low-A” you get stuck in all too often, you added those same snakey arms to your isolations and steps? Learn all the tricks known to me, along with a few sample drills to take home, plus tips on developing your own unique combos! Workshop includes upper body conditioning, short theoretical part on arm and hand position with their belly dance stylization, and lots of practice!
