Different types of Belly Dance styles | How many do you know

[@Mmbellished]

First time I came across a Professor in Oriental dancing . I have learnt from many people who teach how to belly dance but sorry to say they all are great dancers…none of them concentrate on teaching the historical and artistic perspective beyond the art . Its just focusing on the performances. I still dont understand how each style is different from another .. hope to learn one day 😊

Thank you so much dear Mmbellished. The main concept is explained through the geographical region and its climatic effects through the influence of customs and traditions as well as beliefs. These environmental and cultural elements have a strong influence on the forms of movement during dance, which helps to understand how each style differs from the other.❤️️

Yeah, I agree with you, but... In now days egiptian modern bellydancers, are fast, strong and very modernized. So it's hard to explain people what to do or don't, cause for Oriental Dance created in golden era, was completely different from today's. Lovely video by the way

Dear Wardamaravilha, Thank you so much, I also agree with you.😍 Today's dance form is different from the past which was slow dance forms. But we cannot develop our dance without knowing its roots and foundations. I see great dancers mixing sports steps with dance as well as some performances that they call Egyptian which they are not. What do you think about that?

@@TamerAziz definitely. Totally agree with you. There's no feelings and understanding about Egyptian traditions and /or Arabic meaning on the stage
