[amorelliable]

Great job ladies. This is really fun to watch and the dancing is so elegant. Who did your video production?

[crystalllized]

@amorelliable My beautiful and talented belly dance partner, Surreyya, did all of the video editing. She is amazing!

[crystalllized]

We had so much fun belly dancing to her new song.

@crystalllized A nicely-made tribute video. It really shows the love and respect you have not only Ms. Atlas, but also for the art of belly dance itself.

[crystalllized]

@Mr111989 Thank you. Surreyya spent a lot of time putting this video together. She did a great job!

[Mr111989]

@crystalllized She certainly did and you are a wonderful dancer, as well.

[Mr111989]

@crystalllized 4:12-4:15 What's up with that move? Was that part of one your dance routines or did you come up with that on your own?

[crystalllized]

@Mr111989 That is a Turkish move :) Belly shake!

[Mr111989]

@crystalllized Is this belly shaking move something that most dancers do as part of their dance choreography or is it just a select few who do this?

[crystalllized]

@Mr111989 Not many belly dancers do this move. Only those who study Turkish belly dance.

[Mr111989]

@crystalllized Whereas you study Egyptian style bellydance, correct?

[crystalllized]

@Mr111989 I study everything! I love learning and want to learn about it all.

[Mr111989]

@crystalllized You'll become a great and truly special belly dancer because of what you just wrote.

[crystalllized]

Thank you Rakelle! We love Natacha Atlas and hope she comes back to the Bay Area and Sacramento soon!
