1-30-09 Say
Thank You! Gracefully Accepting Compliments by Chandani
Responding with a simple “Thank you!” should be rewarding to both parties.
By receiving praise from another, you acknowledge that you did your job
well. It should be a merry moment that enhances your spirit. You have an
accomplishment that you should be proud to share, and the audience member
offering you the compliment is acknowledging that your dance has touched
something in the life of another.
12-16-08 Whose
Dance is This, Anyway? Where Do Men Fit into the Belly Dance World? by
Lara
As
soon as he was born, dancers of all stripes immediately started in with "Oh,
a new little drummer for the troupe!". Excuse me? Why is there an instant
assumption from birth that all little boys will be drummers and all little
girls will be dancers just like mommy.

Eastern Dance

Wedding Stories by Leila of Cairo
All
the guests were staring at us. The father of the bride demanded to know who
ordered the bellydancer and it seemed a fight was going to break out between
representatives of the brides’ family and the hotel organizer.
7-12-08 Jodette:
Undeniably Authentic by Sausan
“Why
do students go against their own teacher,” Jodette continued , “and
spread ugly rumors?” I looked at her a shook my head. It's a lament
that I, too, have experienced from time to time as teacher of this dance.

Two Doors Close Two Doors Open, New Venues in New York City, by
Sarah Skinner
Scott
was thrilled with the new place and said it reminds him of the late night
clubs in Istanbul, Turkey. At the end of the night I walked out into the
hot summer air feeling invigorated and inspired.
7-3-08 Belly
Dancing in Estonia by Ines Karu
As
in the rest of the world, the Egyptian style of belly dance is the most popular
one in Estonia. Most of the instructors and dancers are specialized in that
style. The American Tribal Style Belly Dance is also becoming more known
each day. The general impression of belly dance in Estonia is glamorous,
feminine, luxurious, modern and elegant. It's a time where Estonian dancers
can truly say that they can be proud to be a Middle Eastern dance artist
in Estonia.
