This program presents you with several different styles of bellydance: Egyptian Dance, Traditional Cabaret Style, Persian Dance, and Persian Banderi Dance.

Many people believe that this dance is the first and purest form of dance, since it naturally evolved with civilization, and can be performed by anyone, regardless of their age or body type. This is also why bellydance is so popular as an exercise form. Many of the movements involve isolating different areas of the body, and moving them sinuously in opposition to each other.
