Styles Offered: ATS, Fusion Availability: Evening classes. Private classes. The Teacher: A Student and Performer with the Zenda troupe since 2005, my growing interest in (ATS) style and Tribal Fusion and the shortage of teachers of these styles in my area meant soaking up knowledge wherever possible and then undertaking online training to be able to offer these styles here. A successful beginning means more classes to come. Started MED: 2005 Started Teaching: 2017 Joined MEDANZ: 2014 Has current First Aid Certificate: 2016 Updated: 24/03/2017 Gretchen Howard
