Tribal Fusion Fundamentals: Hips, Shimmies, and Traveling Moves
This class is geared towards new beginners, continuing beginners, and anyone else who wants to improve their technique by focusing on the fundamentals of muscular technique.The next class session will focus on hip and pelvic articulations, shimmies, and traveling hip moves. We’ll use conditioning exercises and visualizations to learn how to use our glutes, obliques, abs, quads and hamstrings to control our hip movements. We will combine moves into short, versatile combinations and experiment with the basics of layering.
Everyone is welcome in this class regardless of experience level or stylistic interest.

Fusion FLOW Saturdays from 2:30-3:45PM at World in Motion
Egyptian/Tribal Fusion
This class is geared towards continuing students with at least six months of previous experience and is not appropriate for beginners.The next class session will focus on Egyptian-influenced moves and combinations reimagined to fit in a Tribal Fusion context. We’ll learn movements from the 1950s to today and combine them into short and long combinations that would look great as part of Oriental or Tribal Fusion performances alike. Each combination will have two variations: one that’s a little more Oriental, and one that’s a little more Tribal.
As a bonus, we will learn a little bit about the history of Egyptian dance in each class.
This class is a great way for continuing students to familiarize themselves with the stylistic conventions within bellydance and learn more about ethical dance fusion.

"Sara's clear instruction and attention to detail make her classes interesting, challenging, and fun no matter what level you're at, while her own dedication to her art elevates her teaching. She has a real talent for explaining how a move works, which is great for improving form along with enlarging your dance vocabulary and gaining confidence in improv. I've taken classes with her for two years now and every session has brought something new and exciting to my dance experience." -Ginny M.
"Sara Beaman is an amazing belly dancer, teacher and human being. As a dancer, Sara is one of the most talented performers in the triangle (and even the state). Her technique is impeccable, her stage presence is magnetic and her choreography is enchanting. As a teacher, she is incredibly patient and considerate of her students varying levels of experience and ability. She emphasizes posture and safety to ensure that her students do not hurt themselves, something many belly dance teachers fail to do. She teaches a wide variety of styles, from traditional tribal to cabaret fusion, giving her students exposure to the many different areas of bellydance. As a person, Sara is warm and approachable. She is sweet and supportive and extremely creative. Her dedication and passion for dance are inspiring. Her genuine kindness makes her a delight to work with." -Meg E.
"Sara Beaman is a graceful dancer, a creative and thoughtful chorographer, a stunning performer, and an exemplary teacher. From body mechanics to musicality to cultural context, she knows it and she can teach it to you." -Sarah M.
"I have studied with Sara in class, workshops and private lessons. She is inspirational, fun, and motivating. Her detailed knowledge of human anatomy and physiology enables her to explain technique and body positioning in such a way that I really "get" what my body is supposed to be doing. Under her instruction I have mastered difficult moves and my dance has significantly improved. Her encouragement and creative ideas help her students improve while having fun and feeling supported. I highly recommend her for group or private lessons!" -Lisa Allred Draper, Director of Happy Hips
