"American" Tribal Style is a fiction. All bellydance comes from the middle east as it is a folk dance from that region. just because you are (attemping) to do it in tacky costumes to tacky music doesnt make "American." BTW, calling BD "american" is rather insulting, because it is another culture's art that you are claiming as your own

Wow, you girls are great

Thanks for the compliments! (It was a pretty good set considering we were on a grass slope that was a bit slippery after the rain.) Not sure if the torso-circle-chest-drop has a name in the ATS vocabulary. We've been using it for a while now.

What is considered "authentic belly dance" gets many of its elements from 1930's Hollywood. If you think these costumes are tacky, have you really paid attention to the Egyptian "authentic" cabaret dancers? LOL! Belly dance as it is known today may have started as folk dances, but, like all dance, it changed and evolved.

Adding the "American" is a way to tell people it is not original folk dance. It is not claiming it, but letting people know where it originated. As for fiction...it is fact. It is among the more popular belly dance styles being taught across the country. Sure, it may not be your preference, but as for being an insult, that is just ridiculous.

It is American Tribal Style Dance troupe. Since they are not pretending to be authentic Egyptian, Turkish or other style of dancer, how is that a problem?
