Beyond Moves, Combos and Choreography is THE book for the belly dance teacher and the student who really wants to know how to belly dance - not just how to execute moves and choreographies - but how to know how to use what you've got, when to use it, with how much energy to infuse your performance with the intended emotion, and connect with your audience.
