Hello Ladies and gents, We ofetn discuss various styles of oriental dance, i.e. Egyptian, Turkish, Lebanese and American style. But what about other style that have been transported to Russia or Korea?

Do you think there is a different approach to styling exhibited by dancers from other countries?(other than American)

Can you tell the difference btween a Korean dancer and one from Brazil?

Do you think these dancers follow the Egyptian or Turkish stylings?

I'm curious because Oriental dance is so global, even in America we have fused the dance and created other styles. I think it's ironic when I see Korean dancers perform ATS. What is your take on this?
