Carolena Nericcio started the Fat Chance Belly Dance troupe (a registered trademark), formerly American Tribal. FCBD/ATS developed a unique style of belly dance known simply as the FCBD style,[1] of which the primary defining characteristic is group improvisation. It is generally performed at community events such as festivals and parades, with dancers typically favoring a look provided by wide-legged pants gathered at the ankles (also known as harem pants or parachute pants), tops known as cholis and full skirts.[2]
