As always, if you like the music, BUY the music!
(This doesn't benefit us, of course - only the musicians who create the art you enjoy!)

No class in Los Gatos today, but a new series of classes starts next Saturday, June 6! Bellydance Foundations w/ Petra are Saturdays, 11am-noon, at the Los Gatos Youth Rec Center, at 123 East Main St. Los Gatos, June 6-August 1.

Focus on growing your body awareness and capability to isolate and coordinate muscular and skeletal movements, which will result in more precision in your dance, and elsewhere, too! We'll be doing a combination of body isolations, yoga and some calisthenic activity as we build our skills! EVERY body is welcome: all sizes, shapes and genders.

See https://www.lgsrecreation.org/adults/adults-classes/ for details and to register.

We also have ongoing classes on Monday nights in San Jose, and online Thursday nights via Zoom!

Oops ! We missed World Goth Day! Better late than never. So today for we are sharing the song “Bela Lugosi's Dead“ by Bauhaus. Enjoy this throwback to Petra's childhood favorite song, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMOKpcY12jI

As always, if you like the music, BUY the music!

From 6 years ago!

“How will you ever know what kind of dance you're capable of dancing, until you actually dance?”

For Wayback Wednesday, a fun show from Tribal Fest some 15 years ago - the all-male Uru Tribe!

The Uru Tribe @ Tribal Fest 13 Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Stacy didn't actually perform at unSCruz (too busy running Off-Playa Info, teaching some flow toys, and monitoring the Silly Walk Zone), but she did get some fun photos taken by Gayler Photography!

We found the ATS Dance Moves list again! It used to be an app, then it was "app" that was just a link to a webpage, which then moved. It's now here: https://isabellebidou.com/moves/

Note that each link leads to a performance video at the moment when the move starts, so you can see what it looks like "in action". It does not provide any sort of repetition or instruction.
