About American Tribal Style ® Bellydance

American Tribal Style® is a modern genre that evolved in San Francisco, USA. It is a modern reinvention of ancient art forms, inspired by Middle Eastern, Ghawazee (Gypsy), Indian and Flamenco dance traditions. 

It is danced completely improvised as a tribe, and has cues built into the moves to enable people to follow a leader and exchange leadership. It has flourished as a style around the world.

The style emerged from a rich folkloric dance history in San Francisco, with the genre of ATS® first formally put together by Carolena Nericcio from Fat Chance Belly Dance®.

Since then tribes have formed around the world based on ATS® and other formats that have sprung from ATS® (by Carolena's students who've become celebrated dancers and creators themselves).
