What books should I buy?

Do you recommend any books on BD? My old teacher had a book that was like the history of BD. It was a big coffee table type book.

But really I'm looking for any books of worth on BD. Thank you.

"Snake Hips" - its a fun read and every Belly Dancer can relate to it!

I have a soft spot in my heart for The Serena Technique of Belly Dancing by Serena and Alan Wilson. As a baby belly dancer, I studied it religiously. As a belly dance teacher, I incorporated several of her expressions and descriptions into my teaching vocabulary. Some jokes just don't get old.

I’ve seen that book Shanazel and almost ordered it. Will do now.

If you are into Egyptian style dancing, "A trade like any other Female dancers and singers in Egypt" should be in your book collection.

I'll second this one - Egyptian style or not!
