They perform a unique style of belly dance that has affectionately been called "Old School Tribal." It is a structured non-verbal language created in America, which is inspired by Middle Eastern dance with influences from around the world, including Indian, North African, Spanish, and Modern dances. There is no choreography. The dancers exchange lead and follow roles in a unique group improvisational format, supported and enhanced by the evocative rhythms and haunting melodies of their live musicians. www.tapestrytribal.com |
