Idly googling for London belly dance classes: London Bridge Belly Dancing Class : Salty Pepper London Events

Er...who?

Another dancer I've never heard of: Entertainer EDGWARE (UK) - Reshma Rose If she specialises in Modern Egyptian, those sure aren't Modern Egyptian costumes.

Interesting! Do you think they are making up their past history in belly dancing?

I suspect those favourite marketing tools exaggeration, inflation and all the other -ations!

Interesting. I took a look at the first one, Anna K and she lists her style as a fusion of a variety of different dance styles. The other states five years in the industry. I'd like to know precisely what that means? vagueness seems to be in vogue now.

Does this mean I can market myself as a professional dancer after only taking classes for a year? lol (Trust me when I said I am kidding

)

Probably

I can do fusion - fusion of just on one year of bellydance instruction and some half-forgotten ballet from when I was a lot younger and some slightly more recent-but-not-well-learned salsa and merengue - and I could call it 'international dance' and make ZILLIONS!

Hey, me too! It isn't just some half-assed fusion though, come on, think marketing! It's a transglobal dance phenomenon that encompasses the life-experience of many women across the world, uniting them in the common fulfillment of... oh I dunno, the fact they turned out not to be Margot Fonteyn after all, and couldn't find a salsa partner who would lead properly, and lurrve all those sequins and dressing up without feeling too old and having to pull their tummies in all the time...

My belly dance marketing skills just gave out. I was on a roll for a moment though

I love "exotic and nonetheless sportive".
