A Note on Belly Dance
The Dance of the East, raks sharqi, widely known as belly dance or danse du ventre, is not a dance that only focuses
on belly or hip movements but a dance that is done by the entire body; a dance that uses one's body as an instrument,
glorifying both female and male form, bringing out it's beauty and the harmony it creates for eyes to see. That is how
ancients saw it and that is how we see it here at Dance of
Venus.
