Learn to love your zils!
Finger cymbals, or zils, are an essential part of learning FatChanceBellyDance Style, but for most dancers, learning how to play an instrument while dancing can definitely be a challenge.
This course covers everything you need to know to learn how to love and play your zils!
Kelley walks you step by step starting with how to chose your zils, then takes you through all of the sounds and rhythms we play while dancing. Her fun dance drills guide you through layering the rhythms with the steps and will have you dancing and playing your very best in a fun, educational and bloody brilliant way!
This is a course you will come back to time and time again!

Her annual Serendipity event at the Devon “Hogwarts” guarantees 9 of the 10 FCCE hours required for re-certification and attracts dancers from all over Europe.
Based in SW England Kelley regularly trains with Carolena Nericcio and other FCBD®style masters and became a certified teacher and Sister Studio in 2010.
