What is FCBD® Style?
FatChanceBellyDance® Style (formerly known as American Tribal Style) is a modern style of belly dance created by Carolena Nericcio. Its main characteristic is group improvisation using a codified vocabulary of natural movements and signals that allow dancers to communicate through gestures and eye contact while dancing together. It is a fusion inspired by folk dances from the Middle East, North Africa, Spain, and India, creating a unique and modern expression.
