MORIA'S WORKSHOPS

BONES & SINEWS

Open level, 1.5 hours

 

Learn a new set of Tribal Fusion Bellydance combinations that takes dancers beneath the surface, behind the veil, to the bedrock and bones of body and self.

 

This step-by-step workshop offers a detailed look at the anatomy of movement and sinewy muscular mechanics in order for a dancer to achieve mastery over her body resulting in exquisite presentations of the femme physique.

 

In BONES & SINEWS, Moria will lead dancers through drills and combinations eliciting a trance over self and audience that will culminate in the new Tribal Fusion Bellydance choreography “Curdled.”

SLOW & STRONG

Open level, 1.5 hours

 

SLOW & STRONG uses multiple fusion combinations to focus on steady and smooth transition techniques for complete body fluidity.  In this essential workshop, dancers will learn the power of smooth, slow movements into and through a variety of shapes and poses.

 

Dancing slowly has its own principles and ideology emphasizing extended muscle contraction and flexibility with the goal of creating big, sensuous combinations pouring through the limbs.

 

As we focus on the muscles between the muscles by using a variety of shapes and poses inspired by Indian Temple Dance, we will begin to incorporate jaw-dropping backbends and elegant level changes.

 

The SLOW & STRONG workshop culminates in aesthetically sumptuous tribal-fusion movements that can help punctuate and add dimension to any choreography.

ADVANCED LAYERING & SHIMMY TECHNIQUES

Open level, 1.5 hours

 

ADVANCED LAYERING & SHIMMY TECHNIQUES is a workshop designed for the more experienced dancer who is looking to expand her movement vocabulary and push her abilities to the max.

 

Topics include musicality in layering; playing different rhythms and tempos within different sections of the body to create orchestrated movement; layering shimmies with precision on virtually every part of the body; and footwork and patterns as part of the layering extravaganza.

 

ADVANCED LAYERING & SHIMMY TECHNIQUES puts together the various drills and traveling patterns previously learned in order to build control and stamina in layering.

 

Advanced drills will show dancers how to maintain deliciously crisp isolations while layering 2, 3, or 4 different components of bellydance's fundamental moves.

 

Some of the more advanced elements presented in this workshop include using turns, traveling, and layering movements which culminate in new, advanced combinations that can become the foundation of a Tribal Fusion choreography.

PERFORMANCE PROJECT WITH MORIA CHAPPELL: “Starlight”

 

During Moria's PERFORMANCE PROJECT dancers will learn a choreography titled "Starlight" to be performed at the "Universe" Gala Show.
 

Moria's PERFORMANCE PROJECT welcomes intermediate as well as advanced Tribal Fusion Dancers and is limited to a small number of participants.

GALA SHOW

"Universe"

Event horizon, Dark matter, Clash of Galaxies

and Сosmic dust...

Every time we look up at the sky, we dive into the incredible world of far away space.

 

The universe doesn't have borders and time.  It has no end. Which secrets of creation are hidden in its depths?

 

The Festival Concert will be held at the Kraków Opera as a theatrical dance-performance show designed in keeping with the traditions of previous years.


"Universe" is the thematic concept for 2023.


We have invited famous and professional tribal dancers to participate in a grandiose and unique concert.  Together, we are creating a Gala Show for Tribal Festival 2023 using strong images and beautiful performances to showcase tribal life in Poland!
