A classic Golden Era belly dance move - with an extra twist!

When I first started bellydancing, back in 1981, there was a classic move that dancers would typically use to finish their dance. It's a classic Golden Era move and I associate it with wonderful dancers like Mona Said and Hanan (my two personal favourites). It’s a great move for when the music gets very fast (such as at the end of a baladi progression) but it’s not used very much any more, although personally I always use it when I dance baladi. In this video I show you how to do it, but I start out by teaching a lovely variation on it which feels more modern and is really good for layering and travelling. The first move has some similarities to the Aida Nour circle that I taught in my previous video:    • Learn this great variation on a travelling...   I hope you enjoy them both… and enjoy adding them to your own repertoire if you don’t already use them!
