I pretty much agree with everyone else. You can see the breakdancing in him for sure. I wouldn't call it Belly Dance, but agree that if its taken in its own context as a fusion, its pretty good! I sure wish I was that flexible!

He is a very good dancer! He has amazing body control and he is really well trained. But as everybody else said, this is not belly dancing. It is brake dance with belly dance elements, but a really good fusion. This guy can also belly dance though, even if he has a very unusual style. Watch this video:

Fusion again. I see ballet styling in there as well as the breakdance. I think fusion is inevitable and unstoppable... We are going to have to let the term bellydance go where it will and be sure to say egyptian BD, Turkish BD when we do the real thing

So it can't be bellydance right. Better let the competition organisers know they've got it all wrong!
Ok I'm being sarcastic.

Yea, well, I don't care for the bare chested look myself; and like shirts even less - but who am I? This look seems to be all the rage in Greece right now, maybe Russia too?

Actually after 10 years of male dancers going naked chest the last year they are starting to getting kind of dressed at upper body also.
Ofcourse the ones that are performing arabic style are with gelebias.
