The troupe was formed in 2003 by Vikki before the birth of Hipnosis. Vikki decided on the name Tribal Spirit after the groups first performance when several of the dancers commented on feeling a new sisterhood, a connection that brought forth a new confidence when dancing together.... one dancer commented "The more we dance together, the more our individual energies mingle to create something greater than ourselves, the "tribal spirit" so to speak.", and so was born Tribal Spirit.
Today, students with a serious desire to pursue the Hipnosis vocabulary and explore the creative aspect of dance will be found performing together in Tribal Spirit.
We feel this troupe truly embraces what tribal belly dance is all about.....dancers being able to come together and dance as one moving unit!
