What is (NOT*) Egyptian Dance (re-defining it for the 1001st time)

Yallah: shortly but surely (or not, time will tell): Egyptian Dance is a Language of the Soul which uses all we are as human/divine beings. Body, mind, heart and soul are included in the equation - if you remove one of them the dance is incomplete.

What Egyptian Dance is NOT:

 

1. A vanity/ego exercize;

2. A desperate request for attention and applause;

3. A quick fix of all our insecurities and boredom;

4. A cheap strip-tease dance;

5. An exotic bullshit (1001 nights covered in veils) story so rotten that it smells (terribly).

6. A seductive (husband/boyfriend/whoever & whatever) porno flick;

7. An acrobatic, aerobic, gymnastic demonstration;

8. A circus act;

9. A movement cathalog (check how great I can move my stomach kind of joke);

10. A place where women become less than their GREAT selves.

 

Come on, world! Time has arrived. Wake up - waking up - waking people up.

Love and Light to all*
