    More for the spirit of the dance than technique and history
  

*by E***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 1, 2013*

I won't pretend that I've been dancing forever.  I started 5 years ago.  While I've been very passionate about learning and practicing this amazing dance, I had never bought a book on it.  This one was recommended to me via Amazon, so I thought, "What the heck, I might as well."This book is exceptional insight into the mind of a Middle Eastern woman and what the dance meant socially to her.  While her word is not law in the entire Middle East, this book does do a lot to evoke the important spiritual side to this form of dance.  I think that it's extremely important for modern dancers to remember what the dance expresses.  Too often I've seen dancers with flawless technique treat this art like a professional sport, forgetting its roots not just culturally, but emotionally.  Here is where I believe the author makes her case.  While her language isn't perfect (note that this IS translated, not from Arabic but from its original form in German), I felt like I could truly appreciate what she was trying to convey.If you've read any of the other reviews, then this will probably sound like a broken record: the first section is great.  I loved reading about her, and I wish that she would just take that section and expand it into another book in itself.  That would really make for an interesting story.The second section definitely lost my attention.  The history is a little iffy when it comes to fact-checking and support.  The author has a PhD in linguistics and Islamic sciences, teaches dance and obviously has a solid understanding of her own culture.  However, I find it disappointing that this book had so few resources to support the very important claims on history she presented, especially when she used so many resources for the other sections of the book.I enjoyed the third and fourth sections equally because, as I said before, I enjoyed reading a little more about what the dance means to her and her culture.  The whole point she's trying to make is that the body and the spirit are not separable in this dance, and so comprehending her understanding of the parts of the body is key.  Obviously she's not a doctor or scientist in any regard to the human body, but it was nice to read about what meanings she attributed to the different parts of the body.  It didn't take a lot of imagination to see where those thoughts tied in with the different "ritual" dances described in the fourth section.Upon reading the other reviews here, I personally think that those who believe this book is too "new-age" feel that way because the language is translated and because the thought process is just different than their own.  I went in with an open mind to her culture, and I was not disappointed.  I only felt like I was led on by the pseudo-history, but other than that I think this is a good read for anyone who wants to enrich their spiritual and/or emotional side whilst belly dancing.

    Perfect in every way.
  

*by I***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 11, 2020*

This book is comforting as well as  reminiscent. I get excited with every page town. I haven’t read it completely but it definitely brings joy to my heart. I’m grateful that it was written. I know a lot of my sister performers have this book as well. I don’t understand the negative reviews because there’s nothing wrong with it at all. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to get in touch with their past as well enjoy living accounts from the authors history.

    Finally!
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 15, 2016*

Beautifully written.  I have been looking for a book that dives into the meaning of each movement, it's spiritual concepts, etc.  Read over half of it the day I got it, couldn't put it down!  Some of the pictures are not referenced correctly, but that is forgivable because of the content of the book.  I was sooooooo glad to finally find what I have been looking for.  I had a book that was similar in horse circles called the Tao of Equs.  If you liked that book, you will like this one too.  It is deep and heartfelt, and teaches the reader about the cultures it comes from.  I was not paid to comment here, I am just thrilled.
