[Halpin2006]

Jill Parketr is beyond fantastic! She teaches MASTER dance classes, thus she is a Master of tribal belly dance. And a mystical form of creativity. After one dance performance, you will fall in love with this woman and her troupe!

[Vattenfrun]

Anyone know what the gorgeous music is?

[louloulunaire]

Not sure what the song is, but I believe the band is Taraf de Haidouks.

[starRavenCraft]

didnt she use to be with FCBD ?

[principessachuck]

Yup for 8 years.. she is the first to have done Tribal Fusion ever! she started it all ! :o)

[venusonmars]

@principessachuck

Well... she learned from Carolina and took it further, along with a lot of other people. She kicks serious butt, and she is definitely *an* originator, but "started it all" is a little bit of an overstatement.

[venusonmars]

Not to mention Bal Anat, Jamila Salimpour, the original "Tribal Style" which was of course a fusion... before "Tribal Fusion", but I'm just saying I think it's wrong to acredit one person with starting it.

[eolandeanachronism]

@venusonmars Bal Anat, Jamila Salimpour Masha Archer etc etc were the pioneers of American Tribal Style, that is like the mother of Tribal Fusion, but the one that starts Fusion per se is Jill Parker.

[venusonmars]

@eolandeanachronism Well fair enough haha. I didn't know it was one person. BTW I like that video on your page of the dance competition - the two girls vs two guys! Crazy styles :o

[eolandeanachronism]

@venusonmars yeah!! the name of the blonde guy is Salah! if you're into urban style, check him out!!!

*pant pant pant*

Jill, *you* are my inspiration to become a better dancer. Thank you for being so amazing.

[swingbikechick]

I keep coming back to this. I just asked the hubs if I could bring her home!!! I wanna marry this woman!!!

[Vattenfrun]

Love it Love it Love it!!!

[stacyoneill]

very enchanting! she continues to astonish me how her phrasing and movement corresponds to the phrasing of a paticular line in the music. bravo.

[maymoonchi]

Her arm movements are just incredible.

[principessachuck]

OMG!!!!!!!!! Hell yeaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
