After a fun and successful workshop last spring (look for the footage on YouTube!), Valizan finally makes a triumphant return to MizzKhizz's studio in Cambridge with a weekly class in American Tribal Style (ATS) bellydance.
ATS mixes Bellydance, Flamenco and Indian dance in a group improvisation format that forgoes set choreography for dancing “in the moment” while celebrating the bounce of a hip. Learn the basics of ATS, from cueing to formations, posture to working as a team, and the palette of moves that make this a fun form to dance with friends.
This flavour of bellydance, started 20 years ago by Carolena Nericcio of FatChance Bellydance in San Francisco, is where the modern tribal movement began. Jill Parker, Rachel Brice, Kajira Djoumanha, Paulette Rees-Denis all learned from FatChance Bellydance before breaking out and creating their own fusion and ATS styles.
Classes commence Tuesday January 8th, 2008 at 5:30 pm. at the Khizmet Studio in Hespeler, ON.
Valizan began teaching American Tribal Style bellydance at Arabesque Academy in 2004. He recently completed the FatChance Bellydance General Skills Certification and the Arabesque Academy Professional Course. He also performs ATS with his troupe, Shades Of Araby.
Valizan will be handling registration himself, so please contact him at valizan at Pathcom dot com for more information.

Re: Valizan returns to Khizmet Studio to teach ATS!
Mon, November 19, 2007 - 10:47 AMdefinitely triumphant! i'm sure you'll be a hit at khizmet's- she's the real deal, and a no-bullshit professional to boot. she's already been advertising your class and talking it up like crazy.
since 2002, members of khafif have performed with khizmet, taught workshops at her studio, partied with her on roadtrips, sold our cds through her studio, and i take currently take classes with her, and we have had only good experiences. it's great to see you and khiz working together, too, v.
