TRIBAL FUSION STYLE

This wonderful dance style draws upon various regions for its movements and costuming inspiration. It is influenced by the classical folk dances of the Middle East, North Africa & central Asia including Egypt, Persia, Morocco, India and Afghanistan. It has a completely different costuming style that is clearly different from the sequined costumes worn for oriental style. The dancers wear authentic old Kuchi costuming, cowry shells and jewellery from the tribes of the desert. This style of dance involves very controlled slow or fast and sensuous tightly synchronized routines with plenty of locks and isolations Hypnotic and earthy combinations cleverly interwoven and seamlessly blended to deliver mesmerising and fluid dances with a touch of mystery.

GYPSY FUSION;

Dances done with pure gypsy fire, plenty of attitude and extremely entertaining! These dances are upbeat and playful dances performed in huge flowing gypsy skirts in vibrant colours. Performed with plenty of spirit, attitude & skirt swirling technique. Sensual yet flirtatiously bold Upbeat and exciting foot tapping music that totally uplifts the soul and atmosphere in any room!

UNIQUE POI SPINNING ROUTINE;

Although not a normal addition to belly dance, we can also feature a unique highly visual poi dance routine which is great for outdoor events during the summer. “Poi “is the Maori word for “ball” on a chord. The Poi was used, many years ago by the Maori people of New Zealand to increase their flexibility and strength in their hands and arms as well as improving co-ordination. Belly dance moves are combined with the ancient art of poi spinning in which stunning complex patterns are weaved in the air using luminous trails of fabric. A hypnotic and colourful dance ideal for creating an unforgettable impression on your audience!

As always, the performance space, type of event and suitability are taken into account.
