TRADITIONAL ARABIC DANCE

[TEDI808]

Wow!! Awesome! Mesmerizing!!! I'm amazed ... Had not fallen or dizzy! o_O

[dancesansfrontieres]

well done mate, I mean the dancer. I've started doing tanoura and performing it but even I can't see how you lift the skirt with one hand only! you really have the technique down to a T. !!!

just my penny's worth re: arabic/turkic. Almost all things like attire, footwork, attitude are different in Turkish & Egyptian whirling. Regarding the origins of whirling it goes back to Rumi who was Persian and died in Konya which is in today's Turkey.

[arzadi11]

this must be a gay bar in arabia

[sarahshafiahsiddiqi]

Whoa!!! it's awesome whatever it is

[alwanalwan1]

it's sufi dance ,i wouldn't say it's Arabic or Turkish

[MountAnalogue]

[AnnettaAlan]

Как же он поход на того человека, который танцевал это в нашем отеле...

[AresTheJoker]

can anyone tell me the name of this song please...i am searching it for like a year maybe more...

[Ojoku12]

If one looks closely, you will see the the style of belt wrapped around his body and the type of decor on the outter most skirt in not in arab tradition. This is a Turkish style of dance that some have confused with being Arabian since the Turks popularized this style of dance as it comes from the Sufi tradition of Al-Islam. Moreover Arab styles of dance are very different than this. Arab dances are harder to come by as the laws in Saudi Arabia are strict concerning types of entertainment.

[TheOrientalEast]

Anyway such dances are just for comercial atraction...for tourists, it has nothing to do with the real sufi dances.

[TheOrientalEast]

@MrPersianlion Strange...i knew that egyptians are semits. Nationalism has nothing to do with soul. You speak about Molana but you ignore his philosofy regarding nationality of a man! Pathetic!

[musixmaria]

please tell somebody the name of music... pls!!!!!!

[joyc22]

This is not any traditional Arab dance. Its the dance of the Sufi Whirling Dervishes of Turkey-Iran !

[MonaTheBellydancer]

What is the name of the song? Im trying to search for tanoura but i just cant find the song? Help :(

[shahnaaz786]

N this i believe is the EGYPTIAN TANURA dance......n not a very good one. I have seen better on the nile cruise in cairo.

[shahnaaz786]

I don't know what this is but i definitely know that this is not the mevlana dervish dance. That dance is a sufi ritual where the dervishes have their left palm facing down n their right palm facing up, dipicting that, one hand takes from the universe n the other gives it back to the universe. Their eyes are always shut n they are in a trance. This man is just going round n round like a clown. This is actually an INSULT to the mevlana dervishes SEMA RITUAL!!!!

[ra23wr]

its the way the sufis (a sect of islam) think they communicate with god

[OddReality94]

its awesome awesome awesome...I just came back from Egypt, and i tried to do the derwish dance there, but i fell on the people who were sitting close to me :D xD these people are MAGICAL! :D

[men3m911]

not arab it's EGYPTIAN EGYPTIAN EGYPTIAN FLOK

[GoodGraciousGod]

@men3m911 and @osos1991, are Egyptians not Arabs?? Please stop posting innacurate statements. That the dance is particular to Egypt in the Arab world and generally renowned as 'swirling dervishes' from the sufi order inTurkey is pobably what you meant, right?

[shblqtr]

[sagagossard]

is this dance related to the dervishes' dances?

[DRAGOVODA]

yes:)

[shadibeidas]

I'm Arab, and I can tell you that it's not an Arab dance. It's a Sufi Turkish ritual. The dizziness is supposed to bring the worshiper into a trance-like state, making them closer to God.

[vakantieland4]

Is not this the tenoura, an Egypt viarity of the Derwisj Sufi ritual?

[jazz2life]

but you are probably not aware that is Egyptian sufi whirling , like the group TANOURA, they make it more like a folklore and show with their colorfull skirts and manipulation of objects.

[landesal]

@shadibeidas this is clearly an arabic performance, the dervish dance has a different style of closing and doesnt have this kind of music in it, actually in egypt, you will find alot of these guys in wedding ceremonies but not for religious stuff.

[RedxEyesxarexawesome]

I wonder how many of thoe guys fall while they practice

but seriously, that's amazing, they can spin that long.

and that pattern on the skirt/ kilt thing really enhances the performance.

[skirts365]

it's usually called a "tennure"

[Kahuna76]
