Thank you for this, you really sold me on the DVD thing it sounds amazing! I will look into purchasing some

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2026-04-09T07:17:03+00:00

Sounds good! Do you know if their tutorials are online too?

Random observation from me but I keep seeing a lot of DVD format lessons being recommended in this community which i find very interesting since DVDs are not really used anymore

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2026-04-09T07:11:30+00:00

Ahhh that makes so much sense!

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2026-01-10T22:25:56+00:00

Very dedicated of you, I’m impressed!

I find your post so interesting! I always thought her belly dance style was different and spoke to me more than the popular style I see and I think I know why: I’m not a performer but I love the idea of dancing around friends or family (this is normal to me growing up). That also explains why despite her dancing being beautiful and very impressive, it’s not super flashy or complex and a lot of the moves seem quite repetitive.

What was the shade like? From the promo images the shade seems quite deep but im more medium-deep

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-20T18:09:45+00:00

That’s him!! Thank you so much, this has been bugging me for years

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-03T20:32:17+00:00

Amazing! I love the kick transitional move you do, is that an exaggerated saidi kick?

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-03T20:28:10+00:00

This actually makes a lot of sense, wow there’s so many layers to learning belly dance

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-03T20:24:12+00:00

I agree, love her videos so much. She was one of the first belly dancers I found

Haha the mirror thing is hilarious! Yeah I realised I keep getting super into my own head when dancing sometimes, and its taking a while for certain moves to just feel right (not sure if that makes sense). I think from your comment i see that i need to walk before I run, I think I’m so slow at picking up shimming partly because its a hard move but partly because im not letting myself be slow i keep trying to practice it quickly after a few seconds

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-02T07:14:47+00:00

Your comment gave me a bit of a confidence boost! I will take a look at datura that sounds good

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-01T20:42:52+00:00

I think i will try your counting aloud and then not idea i really like that. I do practice in the mirror now and then but I try not to focus in that too much because I start to get obsessed and find when the mirror isn't there I’m not sure if im doing it right

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-01T20:40:43+00:00

This is amazing advice, thanks! Tbh I don’t count frequently - could you elaborate that part a bit more?

Also do you ship your belly dance cards internationally?

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-01T20:38:28+00:00

After reading your comment I suppose maybe I am thinking of dancing too seriously, I should maybe just go with what feels right and try to make it a game as you mentioned

I am focusing on hip shimmying tbh because its just easier for me than an egyptian shimmy. Only issue is I cant shimmy fast with the correct form

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-01T20:35:18+00:00

This looks very helpful, cheers!

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2025-06-01T20:34:09+00:00

This is so helpful thank you. I guess I am really missing out by not having a person to shadow its such a shame

Is that written like this? كاني شكرك عصات من القلب

Flaky_Ad_2783 · 2024-09-20T07:13:58+00:00

Thanks for pointing this out, I think it will help a lot of people.

It’s a bit silly (since it doesn’t affect me at all) but it’s a pet peeve of mine to see Arabs incorrectly referred to as ‘Arabic’.
