Dance Fundamentals (Level 1)

Hello To You ALL!
Tribal Muses has had a wonderful few years of dancing all over the US. We are now even more connected to FCBD with Cat's status of Sister Studio. We have also been honored with many ATS dancers from all over the world, to grace us in class. So with all of this, we would like to follow along a little more with FCBD class lineup. This way when the traveling goddesses grace in the temple we are all on the same page. We are super excited to dance with you soon......
To all upper level students....it would be a good idea to come into Level one for review. You will learn something new this go around. Plus a great review is alway a plus.
