While the Pivot Bump may be one of our easiest steps in the FCBD®Style Vocabulary, it is a core step for an entire family of movements. This means the technique of this step is key to your success and ease for all the other pivot bump steps like the Single Bump, Double Bump, Up2 Down3 and more.

Join DeAnna for a detailed look at this step including clarification on some of the common "mistakes" that can limit your full range of motion as well as impact more advanced level steps.

She owns and runs FatChanceBellyDance®University, the official learning source for FCBD®Style, where she oversees certification and continuing education and mentors teachers around the world.

She was among the very first to receive Sister Studio and Teacher Certification outside of FatChanceBellyDance®, is one of only a handful of FCBD®Style Continuing Education Instructors in the world, and was part of the inaugural FCBD®Style Advanced Teacher Training group. She has taught and performed on stages and in studios worldwide.
