I can't describe how glad I am to find an accurate representation of belly dancing. The modern day belly dancers are mostly European white women who stole our culture and the dance got sexualized. These girls killed it, and they also wore the traditional Saidi Egyptian clothes. I love everything about this vid.
Thank you Fatemah Hatem for the nice & wise comment. It is one of the best I got so far. Actually this was a scene in a documentary about traditional ( Saidi) belly dance, but the Covid 19 pandemic has put the project on hold.
Had they donned the so called traditional belly dance costumes, they'd have been arrested in Upper Egypt. Been there. I know that's true. Edit: as an after thought no one in Egypt cares about the ancient culture or antiquities. That's just how it is.
@@EgyptianDarling Hello there. Hopefully this summer. Thank you for your interest ... Kindly consider subscribing to the channel to keep updated with my upcoming videos & documentaries.
yeeeess!!!! I'm from America, and the whole dance is has been so pornified. The women (it's always women) wear the most skimpy outfits they can find and make it 'Sexy Back'. As I understand it, the dance was a folk dance, done historically in village locations. It was a community event, not a strip club. Seeing how the people who created this style of folk dance didn't die out, that means there were children there. I don't think scantily clad women would have danced seductively for all the men in front of their young children...the folk dance is so much better than the west's sexy dance!
I love how this belly dancing is properly represented. It looks so artfully done not sexualized the way it is expressed in the movies. The hand movements are so graceful.
this has been the only video of belly dancing i’ve been able to find thats not sexualized to hell and back, it really is such a beautiful art i’m glad i was able to see a video of it for how it’s supposed to be traditionally:]
Where do you have your eyes ???? There are lots of dance videos that are not "sexualized" as you call it If you want, have a look at the DANCE video list on my channel 👍
That's not the actual traditional dancing for Egyptians though 😅 Belly dancing the way we know today is made by a mixture of greeks moves and so and Arabian. You can research cuz I can't really remember the exact info sorry.
@@abdul.rahman8552It is, lol. Belly dancing originated in Ancient Egypt. Why did you feel the need to share your opinion when you didn't actually go learn about it? You can start with a quick Wikipedia read. Cheers...
y soy una egipcia que se encanta la belleza de la cultura latinoamericana. somos opuestas, pero con el mismo deseo de aprender jaja. (no tengo ninguna idea de cómo hablar español. al menos estoy tratando, ¿no?)
My favorite video of this . I’m so happy to see my people get proper representation when it comes to our culture that’s been sexualised. I love everything about this and looking forward to the documentary .
I have to say thank you so much for this video, I am from Africa, Mozambique is my country. Unfortunately I see a lot of miss representation about dances from Africa. This gives me a bit of faith. Everything now is so fusion that becomes confusion or is so sexualised that unfortunately the dances loses the purpose in the main stream because everything is about showbiz, and sell, and make money and not to show the culture (how it really is). Africans in my belief have to find a way to modernize yes but keep at the same time the aesthetics of the dance movements, the purpose, the culture and the background history. For that has to do with the teachers but also the performers. We have to be careful when we start to change so much the dances, especially when they are coming from folk or traditional concepts.
Thank you Pynksy Shell, for your insightful comment. As an African myself, I share your views about our ancient traditions. Indeed we must keep them ( especially music & folk dance) alive & intact in such a modern/monetized world.
@@breebreeturner Bellydance originated mostly from Mesopotamia, therefore Asia not Africa 🤔 And it's not regarded as a type of African dance either, that's why it's called oriental dance or arabic dance, not african dance‼️
While more revealing dance costumes have their place too, I love seeing belly dancers dressed in more traditional and less revealing style! And they all look like they're having a blast, both the dancers and the musicians.
I just stumbled upon this video and I've been reading other comments about how they've finally found a bellydancing performance that is not sexualised...and I agree! Belly dancing or raqs baladi has this bizarre reputation for being a sexualised dance...when it's not! and you can argue that a good belly dancer is one who can perform without the reinforced sexualisation that is witnessed in many contemporary belly dancing performances. Referring also to the legendary styles of Samia Gamal, Tahia Karioka and even Kitty Foutsaki, although yes the dance can be sensual, yet they still maintained grace and dignity during their timeless performances.
I practice Hula and Tahitian dance which helped me Segway into Belly dance, I studied the names of the movements and found what real belly dance looks like. I’m a much bigger fan of the older styles as opposed to the new watered down stuff I used to practice.

This looks so fun in this context. I generally have only seen belly dance meant for the stage, like Kira Lebedeva or Yana Yamana, and they were obviously heavily modified for their audience as well. It's hard to find dances that are actually from Egypt, etc, when you don't know Arabic or Farsi because googling "Traditional Egyptian Belly Dance" just brings up random folks dancing "Traditional Egyptian Belly Dance". I guess the folks who post videos in English are usually folks who speak primarily English as well, which makes videos like this one rarer. There's a certain rustic simplicity to this video that has its own effects which are different from the modified versions for the stage. Thanks for posting!
No not Middle Eastern that don't exist, it's not a continent, you must be American since you don't know geography. This is from north Africa not Middle East a term that was made in the 1930s by British & Zionists ppl that invaded Palestine. This term should be taken out of our vocabulary.
I really wish the camera person had zoomed out once in a while to show the whole group dancing so we could see the formations in the choreography. Beautiful dancing, disappointing camera work.
I grew up around belly dancers that honored the traditional style, and was absolutely heartbroken to find how much modern takes on belly dancing are so sexualized. I wasn't surprised, but still sad. So happy to see a video of proper dancing.
I have been looking for YEARS for video of authentic belly dance. Everything out there is "tribal fusion" with barely dressed women undulating like snakes. I've always wanted to learn tribal dance, but want to do it in a honorable and respectful manner.
This dancing is amazing and I have found the comments very enlightening. I realise that what I have seen of belly dancing so far is apparently inauthentic and over sexualised, so thankyou very much for the education. My only sorrow is that I don't see many female faces in the audience. P.S I am really enjoying the music and singing too. I love the way the musicians are dancing too. The dance seems to be a visual interpretation of the music rather than a display to inspire sexual feelings.
I’m a 41 Mexican man grown up in Los Angeles, finding my self having a crush on an Egyptian woman and I’m learning as much as I can and this video is awesome nothing like a happy representation of cultures.
I'm a young guy from the west, but am so glad to see this traditional belly dance! Many of the other videos are so sexualised, it doesn't really speak to culture and history of this people. This is much more interesting!
Now that’s what you call authenticity. ❤️ This is pleasing to watch, really don’t enjoy watching half naked belly dancers. Art doesn’t have to do anything with revealing body parts.
just because you dont like seeing body parts doesnt mean they are not art (or that they are art). If you think the human body is shameful just dont look at it.
Que belleza de música, que afortunada seria de poder estár en un espectáculo en vivo en un lugar tan exótico con tanta historia ❤ maravillosas las bailarinas.
This is in the style of Mahmoud Reda, and not what actual street dancers look like. It is prettified form the actual folkloric, which is not sexualized at all. Generally speaking, professional Egyptian dancers are not raunchy. Check out Randa Kamel or Aziza of Cairo for modern styles Soheir Zeki, Naima Akef and Nadia Galam for classics. There is so much to see...
Thank you for this beautiful video! I love the folkloric dances. They are my favorite and I always wish to learn more. This is beautiful and joyful. Could watch all day. I am so glad this came into my feed this morning. Subscribing.
I'm not one to knock on sexuality and sexy dance, but I really do appreciate seeing raqs sharqi for what it *actually* is as opposed to what it became thanks to orientalism. The dancers look like they're having a ton of fun, and the hand positions are very elegant! Delightful to watch and appreciate. ^^
@minalameey4366 It's quite surprising that most people don't know that Gypsies also have a huge presence in the Middle East and belly dancing is a dance associated with Egyptian Gypsies and not with the Arabs, Copts, Greeks and Berbers of Egypt.
Friends it likely started in mesopotamia of which the Levant and Egypt is descended. We are the same people with the same ancestors if we go back far enough
This is *s3xier and more entertaining than most of the belly dancing videos out there. The overly revealing outfits take away from the dance. I think these outfits are great.
@@theoriginalsuzycat Well yes but it’s not as colonized.. that’s what I mean. A lot of dance is reconstructed. This isn’t. That’s what I like about it.
@stellygamer1878 this is entirely constructed. This style of performance and the steps were pioneered by Mahmoud Reda - who wasn't Sa'idi- and this group are drawing on either his or the Firqat Kowmiyya's performances. The Kowmiyya dances were initially Russian-created. Yes this is Egyptian folklore, not bellydance, and it's great and typical, but it's stage dance designed to represent certain characteristics and activities of the region, not the raw homestyle dancing that people here are fantasizing about.
Actually we practice dances like these everywhere they’re heavily printed into our culture wherever you go in Egypt if there’s music there is belly dancing
Glad you have appreciated the beauty & energy of our native belly dance. Kindly share the video with your circle of friends ( we are trying to spread the word ).... best from EGYPT.😍👍

what instrument is being played at the beginning that resembles a trumpet? i really like the sound of it
It's a mizmar
مزمار صعيدي مع طبل صعيدي
