Well, I don't follow a particular classy style. That's the point that my aunt would say " bla-bla" about. I don't look classy. I'dalways insert smth on my own. Even when I'm supposed to look classy. I usually mix a turkish style with new style. I miz everyhting I like or see. watching Didem's videos has made me mix it with gymnastics rythmics. LOL. Think I need to dance more classy. But what can I do? If my nature is tyomix & to be mixed? LOL

Mine was not in the list so I voted 'other'. I think my favorite style would come close to Egyptian and tribal fusion. Sounds a bit strange but my favorite style is tribaret, a fusion of both.

Question still confused

I'm still so new that for me, it's hard to tell the difference between Egyptian and AmCab, because I have a sneaky suspicion that a lot of what passes off for Egyptian is probably actually AmCab. As much as I love, love, love Ansuya, she's one of those that calls herself Egyptian, so does Jillina. They both use a lot of music that even I can tell is not traditional, and I know that Jillina fuses other dance styles with bellydance moves. Anyway, the point is, I'd like to say that caberet is one of my favorites; I'm just not sure which caberet I would like best.

I definitely know that Tribal Fusion is one of my favorites, and I love the dancing that is done in Bollywood films (even though it has nothing to do with bellydance, I still love it). I think for now the best thing for me to do is to continue in the basics, and worry about what style I like best later.
