Excellent!!! I have been a bellydancer for 9 years now, have 3, kids. but am on the opposite end of it, and get the skinny rude comments all the time and I just wish people would stop hating and be more accepting!
Hello! Thank you for this helpful video. By the way, I notice lots of people keep on talking about Kinovelax Diet Plan (search on google), but I'm not sure if it is really good. Have you tried Kinovelax Diet Plan? I've heard some extraordinary things about it and my friend lost lots of weight with it, but she refuses to tell me :(
Fat, schmat. You're not fat. Society is screwed up! I am actually off to my very first belly dancing lesson tonight. I'm excited! Keep on dancing and be happy. You look great!
I am an ATS bellydancer and I got into it to find my inner strong and beautiful woman. It has given me confindence and it is a ton of fun. Also to be surrounded by such encouraging women is wonderful! I, myself, am thin but we have dancers of all shapes and sizes (all whom are very beautiful women and dancers). Skinny girls can dance bellydance and so can the bigger girls! If you don't like it, don't watch!
thanks so much for your encouragement, nikkal! as a fat belly dancer with three kids (and two came at the same time) it's nice to hear that i don't have to stop just because i'm not someone else's physical ideal. doing this makes me happy.
You are Beautiful and have inspired me to not be judgemental of myself when I Belly Dance and to not listen to other peoples comments because in the end Im the one Dancing and they are still talking and unable to shimmy like me. Thank you! :)
You don't owe anyone an explanation, no fluffy dancers do. Some people just have a hard time accepting the fact there IS a place in the world for fluffy women where they acctually excel better at something. However, having said that, the body size and shape doesn't matter. It's the skill level and the love of the dance it's self....it's about being happy doing it no matter what you look like or how good you are. If it gives you joy that's all that matters. Haters are not welcome.

Honestly, I would think that belly dancing would be the one dance style that wouldn't need a video like this - in fact, I'd expect the opposite stance. You have to have a belly to belly dance properly, you have to have some padding on your hips to really show the movement and beauty. For belly dancing, I'd expect needing a video encouraging skinny girls that it's okay, really, they can still belly dance if they want to, even if they don't have the natural bounty of their larger sisters.
One love for all the my big girld out there, i love you all7 stop trying to look like skinny models, and stop trying to think you are too fat. its always better to be too something than less ! i love belly dance and specially big girls who doin it. dont listen to people who dont like you, they dont know you. do your thing, and never forget that you got fans everywhere. dont you ovastand what it means? BIG GIRLS ARE THE MOST SHINNING STARS OF OUR LAST DAYS !
Thank you so much, you just gave me the confidence boost i needed to start bellydancing!!! I am 21 and have 3 kids and overweight. You are my inspiration!
First: Yes, you're right. It shouldn't be about fat or not. It's dance, it's about charisma and skill as soon as you're on a stage. But because we're used to skinny stars we expect our sexualized bellydancers to look perfect, too. I don't think it's right. I just think it's no wonder.
And: You? FAT`? Excuse me? Fat are people who have rolls on their back and not that cool softness you have. What you have is a beautifully shaped body, a waist, a great form! I am a fat dancer..I have rolls! :D
i <3 you! thank you for this. i really really needed to hear it! ive been going to Tribal Bellydance classes for a little while now and it makes me feel whole. i cant imagine life without it, and just because i dont look perfect doesnt mean i dont love dancing as much as the next woman!
I am much much fatter then you. but recently ive developed a love for belly dance. Hey everyone im fat and i belly dance (well i try) haha. Ive never taken lessons and i really want to... Im gonna post a video response :)
There is NO problem to be a bit heavy. Don't worry about being fat or not. You have charm, that's all that counts. You look graceful and i'm sure you're a very good belly dancer.
from one dancer to another.... you are great! powerful and full courage. go for it. the only one who likes a bone is a dog. i am a little thick myself and i am also older. everybody needs to dance! life is too short to be a hater or complainer. let any one who can dance better or look better than us get up and dance themselves.

i'm sorry you've had to deal with such close-minded bull. you're absolutely beautiful and i love your body and i'm glad you do too ^_^ keep doing what you do
I'm a full figured belly dancer and I thank you for posting your thoughts and opinions. I just want to say that when I dance I focus on expression through my body how the music makes me feel - and I believe that is how it should be and it's feels right to me, no matter what I look like. I love curvy belly dancers (and the skinny ones too)!
Belly Dancers are not only women you know. I am a male belly dancer and I'm proud of it. Dont believe that sisterhood crap. Belly Dancing is for all genders. And gurl you not fat. I mean if Fat Chance Belly Dance can look good doing it so can you. I know everyone wants me to be skinny or buff, but I am not and I'm happy as I am. You go gurl you dance on. The divine lives in us dancers!
Hiya, lovie! Love your statement. I agree. If you take a peek at my profile page, you can see my attitude toward belly dancing. hehe. Not only is belly dancing for women of all shapes and sizes, there is no age limit. It's about expressing ourselves in celebration of all things feminine. YAY FOR GIRLS! You keep dancing, it's beautiful.

It's hard to keep weight on when your a professional belly dancer. All my teachers were very slender and so am I now that I have been doing it for so long. What I'm trying to say is belly dancers come in all shapes and sizes and each is beautiful in their own way.

When you guys get tired of looking at videos and want to chat with a real, sxy Blonde BBW girl with huuuge boobs! im me (yahoo -> CuteBlondeBBW ) or (aim -> CuteBlondeBBW1)
Hi there! I love you!! Yes Bellydancing is for EVERYONE- it doesn't discriminate based on body type. I think in western society, they deal with a dilemma between accepting a "sexy oriental dance" and their own ideals of beauty (skinny, stick thin). And to be quite honest, bellydance looks better on women with curves, and that's how men like their women in places like the Middle East, and Southern India
(I'm South Indian- go check out the "hot actresses" from South Indian movies, they are really curvy, and Americans would even consider some of them to be grossly overweight/obese). But anyways, you probably won't hear so much hate from the places where the dance originated. Much love from a fellow bellydancer.
I've seen some of your videos and I think you look damn good for a woman whose had 5 kids. I totally share your opinion about so called 'fat bellydancer'. I've been called a fat bellydancer too... and way worst, but life goes on. I'm just happy someone speaks up her mind. Thank you and great videos.
I've started class again & the dance just makes sense when it's being danced, or dancing itself thru you.. I've never seen size to make a difference, this dance is ANCIENT...an ANCIENT way for people (seen male dancers too, rarely) to FEEL GOOD and move energy in delight! But as it comes to us it's a female art that makes so much more sense when we revel in it. BRAVO to all the dancers & all who love them!
Props to you!!! i DO POLE DANCE AND \I AM KINDA CHUNKY AND i LOVE YOUR VIEWS! i AM ALSO A VERY SUCCESFUL DANCE TEACHER AND DANCER AND i WISH THE POPULATION COULD SEE THIS!!
im a fatass, and i gotta say.. im one hell of a dancer. :D i dont brag about anything, except that. there's not many of us out there that have real skill. you kick ass!
Well put. I am a "skinny" belly dancer, and I love all my dance sisters no matter what their size. I fully agree that this dance form is about expression, and love of dance, and you can do that at any size, or age for that matter.
i'd say you should rather be fat than having annorexia or anything like this. be proud of your body. i liked what you said about belly dance, seems like you found your passion :]
Youtube wont let me post my nude videos here :( but if you want to see an attractive Blonde BBW girl's nude pictures and video come check out my personal site: chubbychick-net yes it really is me on the site!
my name is heather i am a bellydancer in stratford ontario canada i love your comments im a curvy girl lots of people make negative remarks on my dancing i say screw them they dont have the goal i made for myself to become a healthier me
i can't see any fatness in you...i want to belly dance for losing weight and especially it looks fun but i am afraid to go for any classes cause for one i don't like wearing skimpy clothes infront of people and mainly i don't want my flabs to be seen...but thanks for the encouraging words..i feel maybe i can still learn it
as a fellow dancing goddess, I'm borrowing Whoopi Goldberg to express the following sentiment in a way only she can: "LOVE YOUR SHAPE, GIRL!" and that goes for all my full-figured sistahs out there, that's right, TO HELL WITH WEIGHT WATCHERS! LOL! Keep on dancin' like nobody's bizness!
you're right. i been feeling bad about my shape. i have 3 kids and i wanted to have a flat belly,but after listening to u. i feel more better. i always thougth that bally dance was only for skinny girls..but now im going to do it too.........
damn your ensiring!! seriously!! i'm fat myself nd i'm trying to loose weight sadly im geneticly fat witch sukcs even more! but i love how your are proud of who you are i found my self nd bellydance is one of the things i wanna do i love your confidence i want to cry cause im so happy :')
Not sure if you are hating or supporting.. Hmmm... I am not an untrained "tribal belly dancer" and have spent over 10 yrs learning and teaching my "Craft" so to speak. I didn't learn from a local jr college but from many very well trained and very demanding teachers.
I was posting this to encourage ppl to dance if they feel the need to and not to let size deter them from pursuing it.
Love yourself and forget the rest. I'm a Fat Cabaret Belly Dancer. Each time I dance regardless of a crowd or if I'm alone, I feel beautiful and powerful. As long as your getting something positive from the experience why would you care what other people think?
Um... Thank you for the response... I am not complaining that I AM FAT... I posted this so that people who want to belly dance but use the excuse that they have to lose weight before they try it really don't have an excuse!!!! I could give a F*^%^%% less what ppl say about me. I love me for who I am. But thanks again for your response. :-)
why do you have a think in the middle of your eyebrows. bellydancing is originally egyptian and egyptians dont put that thing in the middle of their forehead indians do!
I have to disagree with the "Belly Dancing doesnt mean anything about beauty' part beacuse well it is beautiful. Women take this up to show their bodies in a beautiful way. I completely agree with you though on everything else. I am A belly dancer, have been for 12 years and If I put on anymore weight I would be classed as overweight, but at least I have to hips ey?
As a person with a foreign background I'm gonna tell you traditionally belly dancers always had some buttermilk on them. The super skinny dancers are something that are fairly new, so technically your more authentic looking than the others, it's all cool!
WOW! That is soo true. I just picked up belly dancing. mean im REALLY new...aka like a week lol. but great point. I was a litle scared of it at first...aka i am on the heavy side. but that really helps. Im gonna learn as much as i can and damn anyone that dares to down it. Thank you for insiration! ^.^
Im taking bellydance classes, and i absolutely love it. Just like my teacher says every woman can Belly Dance. And honestly, i dont think your fat at all. I think your just normal healthy size, and especially normal size for a Belly Dancer. I know Belly Dancing is not about looks or size, but i dont think skinny women look nice dancing. You have to have a BELLY to Belly Dance right? Or at least some type of meat on your bones. You have to jiggle, have curves, it looks much better. :o)
Very nice. I linked this video to a Facebook event of mine. I invited some friends to take a belly dance class with me and I know some of them are concerned that they "don't have the belly for that" so I hope they watch your video and take something from it. Thanks so much. :)
you are lovely and a great inspiration! you should not let the light hit your face as much because its so harsh and you are gorgeous with a very unique look!
thanks for this video, and the lotus hands instructional. keep dancin=)
"Hollywood" image that is infecting the wonders of this dance. It is sad for those who search for it and are deterred because they are chubby... I posted this in hope that it would make them try for it instead of turning away from it. :-)
I think the skinner girls do get way more attention when they belly dance over us curvier girls. I personally am curvier and think I look good when I shake it. Some thin girls I think can look to sexual when they dance or just all bones and I don't find it attractive or beautiful at all. Not to say you have to be big to belly dance and there are plenty of thin and beautiful belly dancers out there, just saying.
@nikafeyrouz You are welcome! I just watched your video again and find so much truth in it.
As I said before I've always been larger and belly dance has made me come into my own and understand I don't have to be a size 2 to be accepted by others. I am happy and content with ME, I think I AM beautiful. Yeah I'm big, but damnit I am beautiful and so are you. Screw all the haters! They obviously dont understand bellydance and its orgins.
I've always been scared about showing any of my bellydancing videos online, because I was afraid friends would see it. Then, I realized, if they are my friends, it shouldn't matter! Keep dancing and ignore those who are ignorant to the beauty that is your body:)
Girl, I watched your videos, and you're REALLY not that fat! You're brave to get out there and say "who cares". You've got nothing to worry about anyways. You've got moves {oh, how I wish my isolations were that in tact...}, and that's all that matters! Oh! and of course, having fun.
I count techique and/or just sheer joy and charisma way before BMI...some people don't want to or are not able to go past body image when they look at others or themselves, and I find it to be a great shame.
I have no preferences irt. dancers' shapes and sizes, but respect and appreciation for those who are able to find and use whatever they've got in a way that enhances their dance, appearance and personality in the best way possible.
ohh no your not fat at all but even if you were just like every other dancer you are beautiful belly dance is for men women anyone who lives can belly dance why not its super awesome =DD
Go girl! Personally I have to say my preferences tend to be the opposite of the haters that seem to only go by what is popular on TV and in magazines. Of course...I differentiate between the large/small fit/unfit because I am large AND fit, and I like myself that way, a lot of my friends are thin, but can't do half the things I do because they don't have the muscles for it.
@nikafeyrouz You have every right to speak out on this issue. Belly Dance is meant for women of all shapes and sizes. I appreciate the fact that you took the time to make this video. I hope to hear and see more from you.
im going to be 18 in 4 months and i'm a size 18 funny i know but i don't care what people say you go have fun belly dancing i like belly dancing i mean like to do belly dancing they have cute outfits plus are clothes are so cute i could careless what people think of me most people always have to open their mouths and i hate when they do that why cant they just keep their mouths shut thats all you get to do peace
I don't see anything wrong with her to be honest. She sounds like a very decent and nice person. So what if she's fat, she does what she loves and doesn't let anyone's person opinions get in the way.
i'm a size 16 eighteen year old, and i'm just starting to learn. it can't be disputed that the slimmer belly dancers look better doing it, but it is true that it's for everyone, and already it's given me great confidance!
Not neccicarily, Ive seen "fat" belly dancers dancing with "skinny" belly dancers and sometimes I've found that the "fat" one is better then the "skinny" one. How good the dance looks regardless of size is the main thing i don't care if u have the best body on this earth but if u don't have the skill then it doesnt matter take FCBD for example they have fat belly dancers in there group and they are the BEST tribal belly dance troupe ever!
Personally, I think you're a beautiful woman. You're doing what you love to do, and there's no reason to be self conscious. ;D Good for you, that you don't let negativity ruin belly dance for you! You're a good example for people that are shy about their bodies, but still love to dance! :D And a good teacher! Thank you!
you go girl. You just inspired me to go and learn the art of belly dancing. I am fat myself, I'm a size 24. I've had 3 children one of my pregnancies was a multiple, and my last pregnancy I was just as big as I was with my twin pregnancy, so I got pretty stretched out in the tummy area. But I'm gonna go for it anyway. ^_^
You're not fat Nika,you have a perfect,heavenly hourglass figure,along with being one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. : )

Belly Dancers are not only women you know. I am a male belly dancer and I'm proud of it. Dont believe that sisterhood crap. Belly Dancing is for all genders. And gurl you not fat. I mean if Fat Chance Belly Dance can look good doing it so can you. I know everyone wants me to be skinny or buff, but I am not and I'm happy as I am. You go gurl you dance on. The divine lives in us dancers!

Hiya, lovie! Love your statement. I agree. If you take a peek at my profile page, you can see my attitude toward belly dancing. hehe. Not only is belly dancing for women of all shapes and sizes, there is no age limit. It's about expressing ourselves in celebration of all things feminine. YAY FOR GIRLS! You keep dancing, it's beautiful.

It's hard to keep weight on when your a professional belly dancer. All my teachers were very slender and so am I now that I have been doing it for so long. What I'm trying to say is belly dancers come in all shapes and sizes and each is beautiful in their own way.

Hi there! I love you!! Yes Bellydancing is for EVERYONE- it doesn't discriminate based on body type. I think in western society, they deal with a dilemma between accepting a "sexy oriental dance" and their own ideals of beauty (skinny, stick thin). And to be quite honest, bellydance looks better on women with curves, and that's how men like their women in places like the Middle East, and Southern India

(I'm South Indian- go check out the "hot actresses" from South Indian movies, they are really curvy, and Americans would even consider some of them to be grossly overweight/obese). But anyways, you probably won't hear so much hate from the places where the dance originated. Much love from a fellow bellydancer.

I've seen some of your videos and I think you look damn good for a woman whose had 5 kids. I totally share your opinion about so called 'fat bellydancer'. I've been called a fat bellydancer too... and way worst, but life goes on. I'm just happy someone speaks up her mind. Thank you and great videos.

I've started class again & the dance just makes sense when it's being danced, or dancing itself thru you.. I've never seen size to make a difference, this dance is ANCIENT...an ANCIENT way for people (seen male dancers too, rarely) to FEEL GOOD and move energy in delight! But as it comes to us it's a female art that makes so much more sense when we revel in it. BRAVO to all the dancers & all who love them!

I have to disagree with the "Belly Dancing doesnt mean anything about beauty' part beacuse well it is beautiful. Women take this up to show their bodies in a beautiful way.

Im taking bellydance classes, and i absolutely love it. Just like my teacher says every woman can Belly Dance. And honestly, i dont think your fat at all. I think your just normal healthy size, and especially normal size for a Belly Dancer. I know Belly Dancing is not about looks or size, but i dont think skinny women look nice dancing. You have to have a BELLY to Belly Dance right? Or at least some type of meat on your bones. You have to jiggle, have curves, it looks much better. :o)

I think the skinner girls do get way more attention when they belly dance over us curvier girls. I personally am curvier and think I look good when I shake it. Some thin girls I think can look to sexual when they dance or just all bones and I don't find it attractive or beautiful at all. Not to say you have to be big to belly dance and there are plenty of thin and beautiful belly dancers out there, just saying.

I am happy and content with ME, I think I AM beautiful. Yeah I'm big, but damnit I am beautiful and so are you. Screw all the haters! They obviously dont understand bellydance and its orgins.

Can people dance or not?
Do they love to dance or not?
I count techique and/or just sheer joy and charisma way before BMI...some people don't want to or are not able to go past body image when they look at others or themselves, and I find it to be a great shame.
I have no preferences irt. dancers' shapes and sizes, but respect and appreciation for those who are able to find and use whatever they've got in a way that enhances their dance, appearance and personality in the best way possible.

How good the dance looks regardless of size is the main thing i don't care if u have the best body on this earth but if u don't have the skill then it doesnt matter take FCBD for example they have fat belly dancers in there group and they are the BEST tribal belly dance troupe ever!

But I'm gonna go for it anyway. ^_^
