The 5year old & 3year old Belly dancers

I found these cute little girls on YouTube doing a great little choreography check them out below to see the performance...



These two have great hip isolation's and hair tosses. I love to watch the 3 year old follow the 5 year old. The younger one knows the movements but tends to forget at times which steps go when. The two of them remind me of my cousin and I when we were little girls. This video is too cute and it's a very good dance piece I must say!

Start it off with the classics... Samia Gamal

The first video pick to is dedicated to the legendary Samia Gamal



Samia Gamal is an absolute delight to watch. She was the icon of classical Egyptian bellydance when the style was at it's prime and she remains an icon for dancers in the bellydance community. I get a kick out of watching her use modern moves that dancers use so much today.
It's clear she had a big influence upon the imagine of Egyptian style bellydancers.
I love her spins and the way her arms dance like silk. But above all who could resist that magnetic smile, it so catching!
Love her... just love her!
