I'm a bellydancer too, and she doesn't look stiff at all to me. She flows like water, except for when she's hitting accents. I'm never bored watching her. I think it's just a stylistic preference.
one of the things that sets her apart is her calm confidence and percussive interpretation of the music. also, her height, long arms and torso and her yoga background. these are qualities of someone who is a role model. i am a professional musician and she is "arranging music" with her body. there is concerted thought behind her choreography. carol tatum, harpist angels of venice
I Love Rachel .. she defines tribal ....shes an original not a copy of anyone else, thats a true dancer .. it's her OWN interpretation I love the fact all her costume is really rustic and old looking and then she has this pannel of really modern glittery matiral at the front .... lol
Wow... I am thoroughly impressed with Rachel. I would say that she is very talented, but that is quite an understatement. She has become my inspiration and idol.
I LOVE RACHEL BRICE! Take a workshop with her if you can, she's so cool! Of course you'll be in a lot of pain if you aren't in that great of shape, but it's worth it.
My teacher told me this and I've lived by it and passed it on to this day,"There is a difference between being exotic and being erotic". Thesaurus gives us this: erotic means giving sexual pleasure or sexually arousing, while exotic means being or from or characteristic of another place or part of the world or strikingly strange or unusual. When in costume you NEVER act in a way that would disgrace your fellow dancers. I think that sums it up pretty well.
Yay! I'm so happy these are getting posted, thank you so much! Mmm... her locks.. mmm.. the shimmies... OH MY GOD the slow motion Turkish Drop?! *fans self* She is a Goddess!
I try to educate anyone who will listen. If you want to know about real bellydance or just want to know about Rachel Brice friend me and I willshare all that I have learned. Rachel Brice is a true goddess, this video does nothing more than prove it. And that 'tattoo' (one of many)mentioned earlier - it's sandscrit (anchient egyptian) meant to protect her body. I've seen this woman perform in real life, she's nothing short of amazing.
That's why it's called tribal fusion... It mixes different styles... And also the basic movements are very close if not the same! True, it's not the usual bellydance, the one that everybody knows - this kinda goes deeper, it's earthier than other styles. But it still is bellydance...right? :)
Rachel is my idol when it comes to Belly Dance. I'm signed up for some classes soon. Not taught by her, but still. Can't wait. Does anyone know the name of this song or group? I would love to buy the album.
I don't know why. But this reminds me of a snake inticing it's prey. Very beautiful, but at the same time, mighty and dangerous. A force that should be respected. That's just my thought.
The 'Tramp Stamp' is what all serious bellydancers fight against. I cannot tell you the sheer number of people whom I have told "I'm a bellydancer." have responded with "So, you're a stipper, right?" Bellydance is a true artform. It is studied and practiced like ballet and jazz. You never ask a tap dancer if they strip. Does this woman look like she is stripping to you?
thats probably because she's very flexible and can isolate every part of her body. I dance both tribal fusion and egyptian caberet. watching her doesny make me stressed.
oh i understand now, i havent been asked that yet because my boyfriend is from cyprus which is a greek island near egypt and lebanon, they value the beauty of this dance- but in england i was told not to put "bellydance" as a hobby on my cv if i apply for jobs etc.
jeepo88, perhaps you're failing to see the amount of control this woman has over her entire body? D: Let me tell you "whoat" kind of "entertaimnemnt" [as you say] this is: she performed fantastically , is amazingly dressed, and the music is invigorating D: [and hell, I'll even say "sensual."] Shove off and find a video you like D: Why even bother with ones you don't?
North Americans have such a convluted idea of what bellydancing is becasue of "Hollywoodism". Californication anyone? It's a real thing. The shock of seing a stranger dancing in 'riske' fashion and pushing those ideals through movies gave the belly dancer a bad name.Ignorant people are the one's that believe everything they see in movies. The traditional forms are a proper art from. ATS is American-made. It's as American as country line dancing & Rachel is the best country dancer in the nation!
What a crying shame that a mindboggling, hot, talented chick like this clutters herself with tattoos. That's like carving your initials with keys on the side of a Rolls Royce - it ruins a priceless piece of art.
Rachel Brice represents everything I love about the Tribal Fusion movement!

AGREED!
Rachel is my idol when it comes to Belly Dance. I'm signed up for some classes soon. Not taught by her, but still. Can't wait. Does anyone know the name of this song or group? I would love to buy the album.
I absolutely adore what she's wearing. Does anyone here know a good online store to go to for this type of tribal wear?
with devotion ;-)

does anyone know the name/artist of the second song?
No kidding. I sometimes wonder if the people that so idolize Shakira and other hollwoodized dancers have ever actually seen a true bellydancer.
I think it's two songs mixed together. I know the first one is from Amon Tobin.
I kinda burst out laughing when I read this comment cuz I always think that to myself whenever I watch this clip :)
Amazing. Can anyone tell me the title and artist of the music used in this video please?
I can't even fathom how strong her quads must be to do something like that so easily.
