Imagine this: there was a time in history, a long time ago, when the bounce and sway of a woman’s hips were considered so beautiful that they set it to music and made a dance out of it...~ Carolena Nericcio

American Tribal Style® (ATS®) Belly Dance is art in motion.  It is a fusion of many dance forms including belly dance, traditional Indian dance, and flamenco. The  primary characteristic of ATS® is  group improvisation.  The dancers share a common vocabulary of movements, steps, and cues.  This allows for any dancer to lead or follow, creating an improvised performance that appears choreographed.  ATS® celebrates the female form  in all its beautiful shapes and sizes, promotes positive self image and creates community among women.
