yeah I Love the music and the way they are playing it. Never heard a Violin played that way. Were I Just listening and not watching I would've Never even thought it was violins. looks fun though.
It only makes sense that Belly dance comes from the Asiatics. Look at what belly dancing is!!! the moves accentuates the features that of the Moorish Woman! Just like EVERY DANCE AND MUSIC, It was taken away from us. Lets keep it real.
The commentator's comment is a little off: "Belly Dance' IS African dance. It is an Afro-Asiatic dance! The manifestations of the dance differ depending on if you are in North, East, or the Saharan region of the continent. The african manifestations also present themselves in the Gulf region, where Bedouins and a minority of Black Arabs can be found. Coincidentally, Arabs from the Gulf have settled in East Africa. So, there has been a continuous flow and mix of people.
Yep this is traditional african dance done all over africa, not just tanzania. We have so many styles of this waist, hip movements all throughout the continent. It originated in Kemet and the Cushite empires with the Hamitic peoples and was carried all throughout the continent by their descendants as we spread into the african interior. This is not a only coastal african but done all over africa. All africans have their own forms of it.
Actually this dance is called Chakacha not belly dance.
This style of dance is done in wide variations with different names all over. Some slow, some medium, some super fast. It is indigenous to hamitic peoples. As the semetic peoples moved into northern africa/egypt, they would adopt it and create their own versions of it which is how the middle eastern forms of belly dance were formed. It was an adaptation of the hamitic dance by Semetic people who conquered the Mizraims and Cushites.
@thotsins YES SIR!.. you seem to be the only one who truly understand this.. and if u look closely at african dances.. They mostly focus on waist, hips and err, the behind area!.. as migration continued and people moved north, they changed it as they go.. its just that arabic bellydance has been very popular in the west and until today many people don't want to credit black people with anything!.. (* tsk tsk, *shakes head*)

Egyptian bellydance is recognized as the cultural origin & Egypt (as well as other countries such as Tunisia) where bellydance is popular r all African countries. To be more correct this should be Tanzanian "bellydance". There r 53 countries in Africa of which several have strong Arab, Berber & Persian presence. Calling this African bellydance evokes oversimplification & suggests only the countries with higher black population are African. Quite a few North Africans take offence to that.
@OmoOvie TELL HIM!.. plz, this is a lesson to all.. Africa is Africa and let it be Africa.. Don't try to separate it or create divisions among the poeople!.. God Bless the most diverse continent in the world! :)

Too true.
It's also strange that people continue to refer to Africa as if it were a country. We don't say European Bagpipes, fries, or kilts?
Do we?
But when it's Africa it's one big black mass of contiguous culture unless it's Egyptian, of course.
