10:00am Rockin' the Tribal Boat
Jump in feet first into the UNMATA Sea of Bellyance Fusion! You will get wet - but let's see how many moves you can fit into your tribal boat. This workshop features some rowdy Sigil Signatures strung together with "make-sense" transitions. Take it all apart for choppy waters or string it together for smooth sailing.

12:00pm Lunch and Shopping

1:30pm Turbo Tribal Tricks
Strap-on your jet-packs. In this workshop you'll get the skinny on what happens when you let off a lot of steam while dancing really good, really fast. You'll learn and drill two original combos snatched directly from the Hot Pot Studio tribal vocabulary, both equipped for improv and ready for show. You will have fun. You will sweat. You will be inspired. And after class when you're sore and on the floor, remember, "Horsepower" is defined as work done over time. We just teach you the tricks.

10:00am UNMATA 110%
No belly dance fusion enthusiast ever drowned from sweat, and to train like the UNMATA grrrls, you've got to be willing to get down and get wet. After this rigorous workshop you'll walk away with two of Amy Sigil's signature combos, broken down into movement components, boot-laced together, and drilled 'til you're ready to drop. Be prepared to tap into your hidden reserves of strength and sass as you take on this class. Warning: 110% is not for paper dolls. And yes, the music will be very, very loud.

12:00pm Lunch and Shopping

1:30pm Overlaying Isolation
Amy's Art of Overlay is at the heart of this intermediate to advanced belly dance workshop designed to add expressive layers and distinction to your dance style. Although controlled simultaneous movement is a complex idea, this class provides a simple approach certain to bring impressive results. Beginning with a thorough breakdown of basic isolation technique, Amy will expand such elements as core strength and relaxed tension, and then demonstrate helpful exercises that are necessary to develop the awareness needed to isolate key muscle groups. Then she will teach and drill an isolation combo that incorporates the artistic flare unique to Amy Sigil and UNMATA.
Prerequisites: Because this class is designed for the intermediate to advanced dancer, a sufficient understanding of balance and timing is prerequisite.
