following. This dance allows for all students to move together as one unit, inviting many possibilities for creative
expression within the framework of this style. This style is set apart from others by its strong center, and
grounded presentation. This style also focuses on group dynamics which help to foster strength and connection
with other dancers.
This form of ATS utilizes both sides of the body for balance, as well as unusual and exciting concepts in chorus
work, props and zills. This style of dance will be taught in Kajira Djoumahna’s format.
In this 8 week session you will learn basic fast and slow movements, understanding a chorus, cues, as well as
leading and following your fellow dancers. Come prepared to have fun as you explore this amazing phenomenon
known as ATS!
