Thank you for posting this.

[gailmanzo]

also,another when you get the chance (haha I am SO sorry for all of the questions, I just want to learn so much about this) What is the difference between tribal,turkish,fusion,arabic, and egyptian belly dance?

[gailmanzo]

you are GENIUS! I just subscribed to your channel. Your videos are truly so amazing. So honest,so helpful,so passionate. I'm a beginner belly dancer. I havent taken classes yet,but I have been practicing at home. This dance is such a passion of mine. I love the dance,the music,the clothing,everything. I have a few questions, 1]where did you buy your beautiful earrings?! 2] Would you recommend some great belly dance music? 3]when you started dancing,how often would you practice? thanks!

[genieshanu]

Thank u for your comment. I started when i was 18

[rumbato]

she said are u dancing to tribal ,are u dancing to turkish, but she did not mention egyptian or arabic which is what 99 percent of dancers dance to. Hmmm, god help ur students.

[BEAT2EZ]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on facial expression when dancing. That was helpful to me as a beginner performer. I thought your dancing was very pretty.

[XxMiLaBCxX]

mmmmmm nice vid, mine are just as good cum check em out on _ Play-Cam(.COM) _

[amina61]

Dear Geniehshanu,

Thank you very much for the video. My teacher always ask me to smile all the way. But I don't like this plastic doll smiling. You are the first one, who explanes the differences. I like f.ex. Dina very much. I saw here twice in my lifetime and she isn't smiling all the time. She is really interpreting the songtext. I love it! It's so dramatic.

So with your video I will work on my facial impressions.

[Liannehankin]

Wow thanks for posting when I learnt to dance my teacher didn't say much on facial expressions so I found this video really informative.

[michaelvolk]

I don't belly dance, but I do pole dance, and there's a similar element of seducing and controlling the audience's attention and mood. I've recently been feeling that my dancing is getting flat, but after watching this I'm excited to work today and try some new techniques. Thanks for posting this.

[yaramaca]

Aha I see! Nice to hear! Thanx for your reply, have a good day!

[yaramaca]

Hi, I got a differnet comment. I find it disturbing that you keep a rabbit in a cage that small. Do you seriously think rabbits were put on this earth to live their life in a place that small? Try yourself and sit in one place twice the size of you body. Then sit there day in and day out your whole life. Its torture and misuse of a free individual. Please dont keep animals in cages. You seem like a reasononable person, please consider this.

Thanx, keep dancin!

[genieshanu]

Hi, Thanks for the concern. That rabbit doesnt live in a cage. She runs around the house the whole day. I kept her in that cage that nite cos i was a little frightened to be in the room.N i needed company. During nite, she sleeps in a really big cage. But the whole day she runs around. Thanks for ur concern again

[gulciii]

[mzjwright]

You are so beautiful **  Masha'Allah, xx

[balishious82]

[genieshanu]

[BoneThugsN]

[DjCootABanG]

teaching very nice

[glitchez]

your very attractive,

[fatoldandugly]

I AM SO GLAD I FOUND YOU!! You are a wonderful and warm teacher. I love your videos and have recommended them to all of my bellydance friends. One question for you? How do you define a belly roll versus an undulation?

Keep up the good work, beautiful teacher. :)

[genieshanu]

i have posted the answer in video form sometime back. This is the url

watch?v=0mhwGVdoXWI

I really hope it helps you. Ive tried to explain the differences. Thank you so much 4 all ur comments.

[angel82287]

please teach me backbends...

[dpm]

This is a bit off topic, but is that a rabbit in a bird cage? :-D

[genieshanu]

yes. its a very FAT rabbit that feeds not only on vegtables, but on junk food and tea.

[Bibitibb]

Your guidance is very appreciated. You are so nice. I trully enjoy all your videos.

[dpm]

I would enjoy seeing you demonstrate the backbend with a change of expression that you describe so vividly. Would one of your previous videos show this, or perhaps one of your future videos if I ask nicely? :-)

[genieshanu]

Lol. I will try my best to do a vid with a backbend. Honestly i am not so good at it yet :D

[Pawn1787]

Sabreena, you express yourself very intelligently and articulately and you'd make a good teacher.

At the same time I wish you would look into the camera and say "meow."

[genieshanu]

loool thats random...i wld do tht

[watchingmark]

Your facial expressions fit your dancing very well, I find. :)

[ariadne353]

hahahahah its me in your vid :D !

[beladi713]

i really love the song you play to it sounds like a song you would make a serious or maybe sad expression what is the name and thank you for helping me again

[genieshanu]

That song is called ANCIENT RUINS by bellydance superstars. If you need it, do ask me :)

[beladi713]

ok then please if you can

[JustMissJac]

That was really helpful, and not only with bellydance! I could see any dancer - or artist, for that matter - using this advice, because you're right. And the fact that you acknowledge that you're not perfect and haven't performed for a decade makes you seem even more respectable and professional. Thanks! :D

[genieshanu]

Ur most welcome. Its just that there are very little advice on expressions in bellydance compared so many genres of dance. Im glad you find it helpful :)

[jc00213]

hey I'm just saying she's hot!!

[NoLoveLost510]

try to give some respect dude...

[XANADUANANDA]

Gracias Sabreena, eres muy buena profesora; no sólo sabes bailar sino que también sabes cómo transmitirlo.

[genieshanu]

:) Gracias back to u.

[navelfan]

You are absolutely great! You are not only a fantastic bellydancer, you are so good at explaining the dance. You are truly one of the best on You Tube!

[genieshanu]

Thank u so much

[genieshanu]

Thank u so much

[BigChocolateMan9000]

This is great info like always. It adds something to the dance when your facial expressions match the mood of the music and your movements. I really think that is why you are such a wonderful dancer. The dance doesn't stop in your hips, you use your whole body to tell the story of the dance. That is the reason you are so hypnotizing!! It is like you feel every move!! Great job like always!!

[genieshanu]

Thank you so much. Its good to see you understand bellydanc so well. I appreciate your comment alot :D

[NoLoveLost510]

Thank you so much for this video! I am taking a belly dance class at my college and I have to do a 45 second solo and the music is kind of serious so I didn't know what kind of expression to use for it. Thanks again :)

[genieshanu]

I wish u all the best in your performance :)

[beladi713]

oh thank you very much Sebreena I totally understand what you mean and this will help me in the talent show and your performance was very good

[jc00213]

Sabreena, You have such a hot body. If I was five years older, I would tickle that belly and slap that ass!..lol!

[RockmanNeka]

hey, back off, JACK! D<
