Tribal Fusion Bellydance

[inevitablethursday]

Oooh brings memories; I think this one was one of the first of yours I saw on youtube! You were and are awesome!

[inevitablethursday]

@inevitablethursday replying to myself, Oh, this was the one where I commented on the lighting being very cool but not so well done!

[mersylla]

@zack007 thanks ! do you do stretching ? you seem to have a very flexible spine

[zack007]

@mersylla I do lots of stretching, lots of yoga.

[mersylla]

@zack007 Do you how long it would take to get a nice torso flexibility ? I'm really stiff and can't do the side winder. I mean I can but it doesn't look nice, my muscles seem to be really short.

[zack007]

@mersylla I dont know exactly how long it should take. Yoga helps alot with strengthening your stomach muscles. The more you focus on practicing on your torso the better.

[mersylla]

@zack007 Ok I'll keep that in mind. How many times a week should I stretch and how long a day for each muscle ?

[zack007]

@mersylla I try everyday to start with 15 mins of stretching and light yoga, and then i run for 30 mins, and do yoga/stretching for at least another 15 mins.

[mersylla]

@zack007 Thank you for your reply. I started stretching two days ago and somehow stretching my abs seems to hurt my back, does it mean I'm doing it wrong ?

[zack007]

@mersylla It doesnt mean you are doing it wrong but stressing the back to much, just stretch enough but if its hurting dont stretch so far



[mersylla]

@zack007 thank you !

[mersylla]

Does anyone know th music please ?

[Floryannn]

Oh dude i admire you since a lot of time, you're very amazing, i love your type, cause have weight and it's so beautifull on you :)

[bfifty3]

*loves it* can't wait to get to go to one of your performances!!

[Cristmas]

Awesome!!!!!!

[MultiSandra04]

really realy nice!!!!!!!!!!good styleeeee!

[ladyguitar16]

Awesome job. It really shows that you love what you do, and that energy is passed on to the audience. The backbend/ drop you did at 1:47 was flawless. I'm STILL afraid to do that, haha.

Your belly rolls were amazing, and last of all, your costume was great.

Keep up the great work!

[PruneSucree]

OMG what sort of shimmy you used at 0:59 , glute, leg, or oblique shimmy ?

[zack007]

most likely glute/upper thigh, i find that the qlutes make a tighter and smaller shimmy/vibration.

[Valeria22ish]

Dude,you rock. I took belly dance for a year, and you make me want to go back. I love your arm work, it is so graceful. You are fabulous! Keep up the great work. You put the ladies to shame! :)

[zack007]

Thank you so much for your comments!!!!!! Im very happy my dancing can make you want to dance again!!!

[Valeria22ish]

Dude, you rock! I took bellydance for a year,and watching you makes me want to go back. I love your armwork, it is so graceful. You are amazing!Keep up the fabulous work.!You put the ladies to shame!:)

[Sarcasmhime]

Dude...you kick total ass. Everything you do flows so naturally and looks effortless even though it's clear you've put in countless hours of practice to get that level of skill.

[zack007]

Thank you, i do put alot of pratice into my dance and im glad that it shows*

[katenassariali]

gooooooooooooooood

[shimmeroflight]

Loosing weight does not make belly rolls show up better.

Practice makes belly rolls show up better.

Keep up the good work Zac!

You RAWK!

God I hope I spelled your name right ;D

[zack007]

Thank you for that comment, you know i allways get asked "do you think you should loose weight?" No i dont, im healthy and this type of dancing isnt just for people who are skinny, this is a dance to liberate people of all sizes, age, sex!!!!!!

[blackpantherbr]

please make a belly dance tribal movie teaching us how to be as awesome as you are!!

MY god, i'm a woman and i'm humiliated, my god! and i'm brazilian i dance samba, we sure, know how to move our hips, but you kick ASS!! hehe

honey, you are great!!

upload some video for begginers they would love you forever (we dont have any tribal class at all around here)

[TRIBALFUSE]

I freaking love you, you dance so clean and your spins are amazing. And for the guy that thinks belly dance is only for females you are sadly mistaken and here's the proof of that :)

[monteme8184]

ZACK!! you are amazing. I'm a 47 y.o male belly dance student and can only hope to dance as bitch'in as you some day!!!!!

[MistressMoon2006]

You are Fabulous!

[erum7451]

Zack i would seriously take Bellydance Superstars to court for not having you as a member!!!

[fresian06]

All I can say is... you make me smile, you are a joy to watch and an inspiration!

[zack007]

Oh well thank you very much, It may not look like it but its a lot of work*

[fresian06]

Oh yes, I know very well it is! It takes alot of work, practice and building that muscle memory to move like that. Keep it up Zack! Can't wait to see more vids :)

[LanceFightsReality]

I love the slow motion seductive moves. You have a body which moves like a snake, awesome.

[dibbie67]

WOW! You've got some SERIOUS FLEXIBILITY, there and the move you did at 1:47...I was SPEECHLESS! That was an AWESOME performance! :P

[pietertjepompino]

i really enjoy watching you dance...

[Curlycomedy]

Cool! Great work!

[diana351]

He's the best male belly dancer! I'm speechless I smiled throughout the whole video. Be my teacher do a workshop in California. One of the best

[doctorcatsburger]

Dude your a Pioneer !

[bellahdansa]

I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to offend you. You are a great dancer! What I mean by "making it your own", people won't say "wow, your moves are so Rachel Brice", they'll say "wow, your moves are so unique". Again, your technique is really very good, you've got those moves down! Maybe learning from other teachers, that aren't very "Rachel" like, you'll discover your own style that people can't attribute to another dancer. You know?

[bellahdansa]

Zak, great job - fantastic technique, but I'd love to see you make it your own, you know? I'm not criticizing - truly. It's just really refreshing to see new styles from someone who obviously has the skills. Then again, maybe you've developed your own style? (not sure how old this vid is) Good luck!

[zack007]

thanks i guess?? im not sure i understand what you mean by "make it your own" can you explain......

[bacardibreezer7]

Beautiful! You are one of the best male belly dancers I think I have seen. And as some others have commented, yes, very Rachelesque. :)

[wangfang226]

hello zack,your dance is pretty well,so cool!

[KOleH]

I am so in love with your pops and locks. Also your drop was amazing, and flawless!

[Fikarrajaii]

Hey Zack, you are really good! Keep it up! Great technique!

[GreekGoddessCaleena]

Im really glad I found this video! This is fabulous!

[bacardibreezer7]

Asking a dancer to be slimmer shows that you have absolutely no concept of what bellydancing is all about.

[Annonymus]

u have experience? o,no?then i have to tell u,

that i really don't care how is someone,until

he/she dances good. BUT there is no rule that

never can anyone suggest loose weight. only told beacuse rolls could be seen better.

thats all.

[bacardibreezer7]

First of all, learn to speak English.

Secondly, yes, I do have experience because I am an accomplished tribal fusion dancer myself.

Thirdly, bellydancing is not all about "rolls" so why would Zack want to change his beautiful physique simply so someone can see his "rolls" better? He's fine the way he is.

[Annonymus]

i am learning,yes.

"his beautiful physique " are u gay too,or what??

i don1t think it would be many people's opinion about him...even if very good dancer

[bacardibreezer7]

How dare you say such a horrible thing about somebody!!!

[zaharafaerie]

Body snarking. This is what people who have nothing better to do with their time, do. And they do it online, where they can be anonymous because they could NEVER say such things to anyone's face - EVER.

So listen, Zack. You astound me. I don't care who influences your moves or what size you are - you are FUCKING AMAZING, and it's clear you practice, dedicate yourself, and have passion. Keep on making heads turn - because you ROCK.

-Leslie (Euphraxia)

[bacardibreezer7]

Word.

[zack007]

@bacardibreezer7 Thank you!!!!

[zack007]

@Annonymus I cant believe that i never read this comment. I dont know why you are a bellydancer if you think i need to be "slimmer, or just a few pounds slimmer" How fucking stupid!!!!

[bannol]

@zack007 Exactly! Why should you be slimmer and for whom? What you do is great and you do it so well - keep up the good work.

[inevitablethursday]

You are all kinds of awesome, Zack. Also nice lighting in this one, not quite pro quality but did the work. :)

[zack007]

well it was a digital camera so i kind of expected that. Thanks for all your comments everyone* i will have some new video up soon i think but it will probably be the same music just in a different place* lol
