COURSE
OVERVIEW & DESCRIPTIONS
Egyptian Style
with Dahlia Moon
Dahlia will begin with a tutorial in
Egyptian basics and then teach a choreography. She also has
a improv class she's inspired to share with you and a folkloric
Saidi style Cane Dance. Canes can be ordered closer to the
event if you need one.
Power Belly Class with Delilah & Erik
This is Delilah's popular style of workout done in the round, with or
without the Powerbelly weight belts. This is done to a unique live signature
style of music composed by Erik Brown; Bass, hand drums, samples and looped tracks.
The weight belts challenge the dancer to work a little harder. It can also be
done isometrically without weights. The work improves muscle memory, core body
balance, and agility for learning new combos and isolations. Its a perfect mix
for the UNMATA style, as well as learning and retaining new isolations and choreography.
Tribal Hula Fusion with Amy Sigil
Amy will be introducing you to her unique
body mechanics and UNMATA styling that came out of Hula, Hip
Hop and Tribal Belly Dancing. The music will be loud and you
will get very very wet! We promise! Amy’s course work
with include elements of:
• Sigil School
• Signature Combos
• UNMATA au Nature with Hula
• Hot Pot Fusion
• Fast and Furious

Special Note About the Music:
Erik Brown will be bringing gear to play his inspiring
brand of Live Power Belly Music which is a mix
of live and looped sound tracks. But Amy Sigil's music is very
specific, and she will be using recorded music. Dahlia Moon may
use a little of both live and recorded music, but for her choreography
you will be dancing to recorded music.
Extra Class Opportunity**

Demystifying the Drum Solo with
Delilah & Erik
Delilah and Erik are offering a two part
live drum solo dance class for a limited number of dancers.
It is two more classes (afternoon on Day 3, and
evening of Day 4). It involves instruction in rhythm patterns,
attitude and then soloing to Erik’s live drum. Everyone learns
by doing and watching. These classes really develop the dancers’
skill. The number for this class will be the first 8 to request
it. The time duration may change, + or - in regards to the number
of dancers, so that every one gets equal time.
Cost $80 (must sign up with registration and pay sometime before
you arrive)
**Extra charge for this class, above and beyond
the overall cost of the retreat.
