  • Actually she is very good. People are used to seeing the 'western way of bellydance' this is the authentic 'Eastern way to bellydance' and it is the 'roots' of the dance. Western and Eastern way of dancing is very different, Western is very rigid in choreography and logical dance - Eastern is improvised and flowing all the moves together so they look seemless. She flows lovely.

  • Western Bellydance entertainers try to think of their audience when doing shows, to ensure the style is what they expect. If you have a Middle Eastern audience a wedding to do, this is the style you do. Otherwise it would be looking at a hiphop dancer when you asked for ballet.

  • i agree totally with the comments about western and eastern dance styles (i've discussed this with many arabs) one from the heart the other from the head. though i feel she could use just a tad bit of pose her movements are everywhere while egyptian style does have its singular technique underneath it all. it should be a mix, dancing from the soul while enticing the audience with a back and forth of dancing inward and dancing outward. its hard to describe but i hope dancers would get this

  • I love this kind of dancing because it looks like it's coming from her heart.

  • yes dancing improvised from the heart and flowing and seamless is way harder than people realise.  When dance looks easy, you know it is hard, as the dancer has had to MAKE it look easy

  • I agree completely. And doing true Egyptian style like this is actually much harder than American/Choreography because this comes natural from the heart.

  • You are correct!

  • Very nice! Raw talent and true to the Egyptian style.

  • I like her dance, the movements are not perfect but she has the attitude

  • watch Asena
