Kari teaches the highly-stylized improvisational belly dance format known as FatChanceBellyDance Style® (aka American Tribal Style®, ATS®, or FCBD Style®). Developed in the late 1980s by FatChanceBellyDance in San Francisco, it embraces dynamic improvisation for group performances rather than relying on memorized choreography. Because the leader changes and each dancer interprets the music differently, performances are created in the moment. The movement vocabulary is a fusion of traditional belly dancing techniques inspired by classical Raqs Sharqi with other folkloric and modern dances around the world. You may recognize dance influences from the Middle East, Mediterranean, India, Central Asia, North Africa, and Spain.
