Is there any such thing? After Kashmir's recommendation of watching a native Egyptian dance to see how they dance the dance of their own country I started wondering if there was an Egyptian teacher who has done a DvD.

What are your favourite songs to dance to? Hiiii! I was just listening to Yearning by Raul Ferrando and thought "This is a song I can't wait to choreograph to". The music speaks to me and fillms my head with images of two lovers seperated and well, yearning for eachother :lol:, I would never...

Hello everyone! I have been mulling over the thought of going to Egypt for a Belly Dance holiday for both training and fun. Probably not any time soon, I think I will wait until Egypt is a bit more settled until I go. But I would be looking for specifically Folkloric and/or Egyptian style and...

Hello everyone! I have been thinking, a lot, about performing. Finally coming to the conclusion that it is something I would love to do. I am shy by nature with people but it goes away when I act, and dancing is akin to acting. Of course my University studies have first priority but I love...

I have never worn make up in my life and I was thinking about trying some out. But the problem is I have NO idea where to start. I don't think I would ever wear heavy make up, but more natural looking stuff. So how do I do that? What do I need to get? Do I need to get everything (foundation...
