Belly Dancing is as majestic and regal as classical Ballet but, differs because it offers it's practioner's a total experience, a sense of well-being, joy, freedom and most importantly, is a celebration of the femmine soul and inner spirit through movement.
A bellydancer is proud of her costume, and it is crucial to wear the most elaborate and elegant dress to convey class and professionalism.
Belly Dance is a dance of the heritage of Middle Eastern culture that transcends a wide variety of nations reflecting a common art with different variations and styles.
Turkish dancers are known for their energetic and athletic style, and particularly, until the past few years, their adept use of finger cymbals, also known as zils.
The term "belly dancing" (believed to be a mis-translation of the term for the dance style Beledi or Baladi) is generally credited to Sol Bloom, entertainment director of the 1893 World's Fair, the World Columbian Exposition in Chicago.
Hollywood didn't help any by only having three roles for a bellydancer (that of slave to be saved, background dancer for the main characters to talk, or deceitful woman who uses her wiles to trick the main character) which created stigmas involving belly dance that many dancers and instructors are working hard to overcome.
