it's origins are thought to rise from the fertility rites of ancient peoples who lived with in a matrifocal culture in the areas surrounding the Mediterranean.
Over time "Belly Dancing" evolved from a sacred ritual to celebrations, social gatherings and eventually... entertainment.Around the world , the Dance still exists in all of these forms today. In countries like Egypt, "Raqs Sharki" (dance of the east) is performed hours on end with the dancer testing her endurance as she swirls about in a variety of costume changes, performing in five star hotels with large orchestras. "Raqs Sharki" can also be found in raunchy nightclubs, at weddings, dance festivals and in the home.
Here, groups of women gather to socialize, meet new friends, and at times.... to select potential future brides for their relatives.
