HI BEAUTIFUL DBM TEACHERS
This week I made a youtube video blog
for both our students and teachers
in which I wanted to talk about something
that I am very passionate about and I am sure lots of you will relate to
"WHY BELLY DANCE IS NOT THE DANCE OF SEDUCTION"
This is question I have been asked many many many times....
How can someone like you,
who believes in empowering women in their mind, body and soul,
use belly dance as a tool for empowerment
when belly dance is the dance used to seduce men?
What a question!
In the past years I have met many
students, professional belly dancers and teachers
telling me how much they love the dance
but how they sometimes feel "somehow guilty or embarrassed"
to tell their family, friends or colleagues
that they belly dance!
So how can belly dance be empowering?
In this video I am going to keep it REAL & RAW
I will tell you a little bit about my journey,
how even I used to attach some sort of shame to belly dance
but how it actually turned out to be
"MY MOST EMPOWERING AND AUTHENTIC FORM OF EXPRESSION"
and how belly dance started
FROM WOMEN TO CELEBRATE WOMEN,
to celebrate their bodies,
communicate hidden and at times scary emotions...
and how it was the most authentic way to get to know our own self
Remember
NOBODY INVENTED DANCE,
It is deep in the heart of every culture
throughout history dance is part of the pulse of humanity.
WE DANCE TO EXPRESS OURSELVES....
WHEN WORDS ARE NOT ENOUGH
WE DANCE TO FEEL JOY...LOVE...PASSION
WE DANCE TO FEEL ALIVE
WE DANCE TO PLEASURE OUR BODIES WHILE MOVING
WE DANCE FOR OURSELVES AND NOBODY ELESE!
I hope you enjoy the videos and when in doubt...keep dancing 💃🏻🧿 ⭐️
