One of the oldest forms of dance, belly dancing traces its history back more than 5,000 years. At a time when the Pharaohs ruled Egypt, Oriental Dance (as belly dancing was originally called) began to emerge from traditional women’s dances to dances celebrating weddings, births, and festivals. As belly dancing spread throughout the world, body movements from North Africa, Egypt, Middle East, Turkey, and India were mixed, creating the styles of belly dancing we know today.

An American entrepreneur coined the term “belly dancing” to promote the performer Little Egypt in the “Streets of Cairo” exhibit at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893, captivating all with the music and rhythms of this exotic dance. Today, this fascination continues to grow in popularity.

Belly dancing is for all ages and all body types. It allows for a spontaneous expression of creativity through movement and harmoniously aligns the body, spirit, and soul while providing fun and entertainment.
