The very first Oriental dancer the Egyptians have known was "Shooq" . She's reached the climax of her career in 1871 and starting from Shooq many Egyptian Belly dancers have successfully followed her footsteps. One of her successors was "Shafiqah Alqebtieah" whom later has become the Icon of the Oriental dance that remains in the Egyptian memory.

Perfumes of Araby Anaheed Middle Eastern Dancer, Performer, Instructor Director of "Perfumes of Araby" Dance Company photo by Walter Rasmussen Anaheed has been performing and teaching for many years. She loves sharing the joy of this art form. Belly Dancing is a powerful, feminine form of artistic expression. Give yourself the gift of dance and try Belly Dancing! Note: Anaheed is an Armenian or Persian girl's name, sometimes spelled differently (for foreign languages it's usually phonetic choice!) as in: Anahid, Anahed, Anahita, or variation Nahed. The meaning relates to the Goddess Diana, or Moon Goddess, as well as a famous ancient Persian Queen named Anahita known for her good deeds toward her people. I use the name to honor a little bit of Middle Eastern blood in my background and as part of my real name. The spelling is my choice for easier pronunciation.

127. Exactly What Is Middle Eastern Dance? I have come to define middle eastern dance by the following categories Culture, For instance, many people equate middle eastern dance with Belly dance. http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/lod/vol5/middle_eastern.html

Exactly What Is Middle Eastern Dance? [ This article appeared in volume 5 of the Letter of Dance by Lady Blodwen ferch Maergred, Tribe Zareefat Seven and a half years ago, I joined the SCA and began my studies in Middle Eastern Dance. In all those years, I have rarely met two people who can agree on what Middle Eastern dance in period is, much less how it should be recreated within the SCA. This article represents where my research and that of my household has led us. I have come to define Middle Eastern Dance by the following categories: Culture, Geographic Region, Time Period and Type or Style. All of these things have a bearing on what constitutes Middle Eastern Dance. For instance, many people equate Middle Eastern Dance with Belly Dance. They completely forget or are ignorant of the fact that Belly Dance is a post-period term that was applied by Western Europeans to only one type or style of Middle Eastern Dance. Belly Dance is the modern version of the women's solo, but does not encompass all the other types of dance such as line dancing, folk dancing, men's dance or ceremonial dance. I hope that this article will give the reader more information upon which to base their own recreation of Middle Eastern Dance. When doing research on Middle Eastern Dance, considering the period can change everything. Pre-Islam is still within the SCA period, but the Middle Eastern world was vastly different!

Explore the Ancient Art of Middle Eastern Dance The allure of Middle Eastern dance (bellydance) is as old as this ancient dance form itself. There are many theories about the dance’s origins. Some believe that it stems from childbirth practices (the dancers’ undulations being used to encourage women in labor) while others think it originated in connection with goddess worship, just to name a couple of the theories. Bellydance is very popular in the United States today. Classes are popping up all over, and they’re filled to overflowing with students. Latifa is fast becoming one of the most popular teachers in Maryland, and her classes, located in Millersville near Annapolis, are always full! She's very well-qualified (see her credentials ) and she teaches a variety of styles: Egyptian oriental and folkloric, including milaya, raqs assaya (cane dance), Ghawazee, Sa'idi, and Hagallah; Turkish; Lebanese Oriental and folkloric; Saudi women's dance; and good old American belly dance.

Welcome to Horace Mann's webpage on: Islamic and Middle Eastern Music and Dance Part I: What is Classical Middle Eastern Music Like? A. Tones: The Arabic scale is very different from the Western (from the U.S. and Europe) scale. On a Western piano, for example, there are 8 "white keys" and 5 "black keys" . This octave (from middle C to high C, for example) then has 13 notes. In Arabic classical music, music can be played with 17 notes, 19 notes, or 24 notes in an octave! Therefore, the human voice and stringed instruments can more easily get these notes that are "halfway between" the notes on the piano's octave. They are called " quarter tones " and are not part of Western music. The Western octave (8 notes) scale sounds like this: Do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, ti, do In Arabic music there may be up to 24 tones in an octave. Arabic music has quarter-tones that can't be played on the piano scale above because they're "in between the keys". Here are samples of many "Arabic" scales. (Courtesy of MaqamWorld.) [Learn more about the Arabic scales and rhythms at " Arabic Keyboard " Sample Sounds 1 - 4 by GEM Keyboards] B. No Harmony:
