Bellydance and Flamenco are a match made in heaven. Tribal fusion bellydance has always been inspired by Flamenco: the strong arm postures, floreos and spins. In this workshop we will give an extra Spanish twist to our dance and add some eye catching Flamenco elements to our bellydance.
Beginner workshop (18.30-19.45)
In the beginner workshop we will learn a few basics from both tribal fusion bellydance as well as flamenco. Of course we will also focus on the powerful Flamenco attitude. We will end with a choreography at the end of the workshop combining everything we learned.
Intermediate/ advanced workshop (20.00-22.00)
After having a look at some of the Flamenco fundamentals, in this workshop we will dive into the fun world of layering. What happens when we layer flamenco movement on top of our tribal fusion vocabulary? We will have a look at hand work, attitude and of course the famous taconeos footwork. Ole!

Inspired by the apocalyptic feeling that was created by the pandemic situation and 3 months of lockdown, this workshop is all about bizarre and unconventional movement. Expect dysfunctional body parts, strange hand/arm twists, and weird expression.
Beginner workshop (18.30-19.45)

Intermediate/ advanced workshop (20.00-22.00)
Let’s feed our dance souls, shimmie our booties and layer our zombie heads. This workshop is all about adding layers of weirdness to our dance: from tutting armwork to kickbox moves. Starting from the duality of the zombie and the apocalyptic warrior, you will also be invited to use your own creativity for impro and group work. Have fun assembling your brain-eating zombie and release it in the dance studio!

Event Details
This unique workshop is a fusion of martial arts, bellydance and Chinese fan work. The traditional Chinese fan dance is rooted in over two thousand years of history. We will dive into the strength, authority, confidence and elegance so typical of Chinese fan work, and combine it with the grace of bellydance. Who knew fans could make such an elegant but deadly weapon?
Beginner workshop (18.30-19.45)
The beginner workshop will teach the basics of martial art fan technique, characterized by a strong, quick, and combative style. A flow of drills and poses drawing from Kung Fu, Tai Chi, and folkloric dance will teach you the essentials of powerful fan work. We’ll end the class with a short combination, blending traditional Chinese movements with belly dance to create a unique form of fan fusion.
Intermediate/ advanced workshop (20.00-22.00)
This workshop will teach you precision fan techniques, learning to spin, open, and close your fans with speed to create more dramatic effects. With a warm up focused on building strength and flexibility for fan work, we’ll put all these new moves to the test through a short tanggu (Chinese ‘hall drum’) choreography to show off your warrior fan skills.
What to bring
– If you want to try out the moves with your own props, please bring any dance fans you may have already (not fan veils!). One fan per student will be available during the workshop. Of course, if you love them, you can purchase one (or two!) to take home.
– Make sure to bring a bottle of water.
– No need to print your ticket, we have a list with your names on it.
What to wear
Make sure to wear clothes in which you can move freely. We dance bare foot.

Teacher
Chantal fell in love with Tribal style belly dance over ten years ago for its feminine strength and grace. Her style is influenced by a childhood in traditional Chinese dance and ballet, and later in contemporary and belly dance. She has been teaching and leading her group, Mascarié Tribal Fusion, since 2013. Now a student of the Salimpour School of Belly dance, Chantal is certified Level 2 in both Jamila and Suhaila format. For Chantal, every dance is an opportunity to bring a unique form of storytelling to life. In addition to a focus on technique, her goal is to teach her students to express themselves and move in the way that is most intuitive and unique to them.

Event Details
This unique workshop is a fusion of martial arts, bellydance and Chinese fan work. The traditional Chinese fan dance is rooted in over two thousand years of history. We will dive into the strength, authority, confidence and elegance so typical of Chinese fan work, and combine it with the grace of bellydance. Who knew fans could make such an elegant but deadly weapon?
Beginner workshop (18.30-19.45)
The beginner workshop will teach the basics of martial art fan technique, characterized by a strong, quick, and combative style. A flow of drills and poses drawing from Kung Fu, Tai Chi, and folkloric dance will teach you the essentials of powerful fan work. We’ll end the class with a short combination, blending traditional Chinese movements with belly dance to create a unique form of fan fusion.
Intermediate/ advanced workshop (20.00-22.00)
This workshop will teach you precision fan techniques, learning to spin, open, and close your fans with speed to create more dramatic effects. With a warm up focused on building strength and flexibility for fan work, we’ll put all these new moves to the test through a short tanggu (Chinese ‘hall drum’) choreography to show off your warrior fan skills.
What to bring
– If you want to try out the moves with your own props, please bring any dance fans you may have already (not fan veils!). One fan per student will be available during the workshop. Of course, if you love them, you can purchase one (or two!) to take home.
– Make sure to bring a bottle of water.
– No need to print your ticket, we have a list with your names on it.
What to wear
Make sure to wear clothes in which you can move freely. We dance bare foot.
What level am I?
– Beginner: Never done bellydance before? Or have less than 1 year experience in (tribal fusion) bellydance? Then the beginner workshops are for you!
– Intermediate/ Advanced: Already have at least 1 or 2 years experience in (tribal fusion) bellydance? Know the basic bellydance moves like mayas, bellyrolls and shimmies? Then the intermediate/ advanced workshops are for you!

Teacher
Chantal fell in love with Tribal style belly dance over ten years ago for its feminine strength and grace. Her style is influenced by a childhood in traditional Chinese dance and ballet, and later in contemporary and belly dance. She has been teaching and leading her group, Mascarié Tribal Fusion, since 2013. Now a student of the Salimpour School of Belly dance, Chantal is certified Level 2 in both Jamila and Suhaila format. For Chantal, every dance is an opportunity to bring a unique form of storytelling to life. In addition to a focus on technique, her goal is to teach her students to express themselves and move in the way that is most intuitive and unique to them.

Event Details
Inspired by the breathless elegance of Chinese dance, in this workshop you will learn to belly dance with Chinese Fans. Short silk fans are used in traditional Chinese dance based on a series of symbols and movement vocabulary that help communicate clear emotions and tell a story. Learn how to bellydance with this mesmerizing prop and embrace your most elegant self.
Beginner workshop (18.30-19.45)
This workshop starts with a ballet-inspired warmup. Through a series of bellydance-Chinese fusion drills, it will teach short silk fan technique with a focus on flow and elegance of movement. We’ll end all together with a short group combination to showcase the beauty of short silk fans when they are used in harmonious coordination between dancers – the way short silk fans are most often used in Chinese dance!
Intermediate/ advanced workshop (20.00-22.00)
The focus in this workshop will be on using fans to make your movements look longer and more delicate, with plenty of spins, turns, layering and elongated movements. A final theatrical combination about the Moon Goddess will show how fans can be used not only to accentuate your dance, but tell a story as well.
What to bring
– If you want to try out the moves with your own props, please bring any dance fans you may have already (not fan veils!). One fan per student will be available during the workshop. Of course, if you love them, you can purchase one (or two!) to take home.
