SPANISH + BELLY DANCE

Rhythms of the soul (Arab Dance)

Dancing is undoubtedly the mother of all arts, and ignoring it is just like ignoring life. Long after archaic times, it became a means to express the most inner and sacred emotions, the celebration of events such as births, weddings, death, sacred rituals, etc.
Oriental dances particularly integrate a wide range of forms and senses.
Belly Dancing, originally known as RAKS EL SARK (oriental dance) is more than 6000 years old and was originated in Predynastic Egypt, where priestess
of Sun God (or “RA”) and Mother “HATOR” danced in the temples in order to get the favor of Gods, the fertility of soil, animals and women, goodness of crops and the Pharaoh’s long life.

In the past, and even nowadays, Belly Dancing tries to imitate special movements of nature, such as the camel’s pace or the serpent’s movement, waves, the trembling of falling leaves, or the sound of birds flying, etc. The dance is sometimes accompanied by additional elements: sticks, finger cymbals, candelabra, sables, tambourines, etc.
