In the Middle East, Belly Dance was performed by women as a form of worshiping the sacred feminine as early as 5000 years ago. It was also used for entertainment and exercise. It was not a dance invented to entertain men, and that was only a fantasy that was created by western male travelers to the Middle East in the late 1800s. Belly Dance music and shows are colorful and fun, and that’s why it appears on movies and as entertainment. Today, we share with you some details about Belly Dance Music and our Middle Eastern Drumming class.

Belly Dance Music

Belly Dance comes from an oriental translation of the French “dance du vientre”. It is more commonly referred to as Middle Eastern Dance, and also known by the Western world as an Egyptian dance form.

Belly Dance music encompasses its rhythm with percussion, strings, and winds. The percussion, even though complex, uses simple instruments like Doumbek drums. In the strings you will find an oud, and sometimes a harp. Woodwinds are the last section of instruments.image (2)
