Love the guy who says, "Oh my God," at about 4:40. OMG indeed!

[marani1970]

Rachel is freaking awesome!!!!!

[charisaob]

i love Turkish style belly dancing, Egyptian, Lebanese, all of those traditional styles. But omg! how can i close my eyes to this? Rachel Brice makes tribal fusion belly dancing into a world class dancing! Period!

Is Sadie better? no, is other dancers better than Brice? NO!

Sadie cannot do snake arms, she doens;t hypnotize you, and Brice doesnt do drum solos as good as Sadie, which requires an amazing control over your muscles.

One word: Phenomenal! Belly dancers can always appreciate other belly dancers, especially those as talented as the legendary Rachel Brice!

@anitamoon2009 If you knew more about Rachel Brice you will find out she is a very spiritual person that cares deeply about her dancing. Her tattoo is sanskrit that states "in order for your practise to be grounded in the earth devotion is needed for a long period of time." She practises Vini Yoga for hours everyday to keep her body fluid and graceful and she has been bellydancing since she was in her early 20s and studied dance enthnology so I think what you have said is prejudice and rubbish.

I want to slap the stupid commentators in the video. gawd...

She is one of the best belly dancers in the world. And true dancers within the profession recognize that. People who want to bring background and race into it, are just insanely jealous,and have no idea about evolution of dance. In ANY style. And yes,European and American dancers are the best. It's because they want to learn it to its truest and fullest, and not assume that their heritage automatically makes them the best. I have met a few middle easterners like that. Thank god its just a few.
