The four-day long event (War Memorial Auditorium, 800 NE 8th St., Fort Lauderdale) is part workshop, part shopping spree, and part performance. By bringing in the best teachers from around the world, specializing in styles as diverse as Bollywood and salsa and gothic pop lock, Spirit has become the most popular fusion bellydance workshop on the East Coast. Start your day off right with some morning undulations at the Sensual Zumba class ($10), or just be a spectator at tonights big troupe performance ($35 at the door). Whatever your style or agility level, youll find something perfectly suited for you (ahem, shopping?) during Spirit of the Tribes.
