What is tribal fusion bellydance?

Tribal Fusion Bellydance is a modern form of bellydance that incorporates many different dance styles, including traditional bellydance, Flamenco, hip hop, and tribal dance. It emphasizes the use of isolations, snake-like movements and fluid transitions between movements to create a mesmerizing performance.

The term "tribal" refers to the fact that the dance style was initially developed and practiced within small communities of dancers. Fusion refers to the incorporation of multiple styles and influences to create a unique and modern dance style.

Performers of Tribal Fusion Bellydance often wear costumes that feature a mix of traditional bellydance elements, such as coin belts and hip scarves, with non-traditional elements such as ribbon, feathers, and metal spikes. The music used in tribal fusion bellydance performances can also be a fusion of different genres, including Middle Eastern, Indian, hip-hop, and electronic music.

Tribal Fusion Bellydance has gained popularity worldwide and has become a popular form of expression for dancers seeking to break free from traditional bellydance forms and explore new styles and movements.
