Hello everyone, the forum being inaccessible for me for a long time, I thought it was a personal problem or that I was banned from the site. Very happy to see you again dear dancer friends and dance lovers !
Hi Amulya,
One of my favorite styles, before the ATS, is the flamenco style and folk dances in general, I fell in love a few years ago with this style mixing fan movements, skirts wide as well as the rhythm of the movements. Recently I even studied fan dancing to improve myself in this area.
MISES À JOUR:
- J'ai acheté une autre jupe, mais cette fois en Padma (c'est génial 🤩).
- J'ai arrêté l'achat compulsif de yeess, je compte garder celui-ci ainsi que 2 autres, pour le reste, je les revendrai ou les donnerai sûrement à d'autres amis danseurs.
Enfin, je n'ai toujours pas acheté de...
Another trick i love to do is to layer the skirts so that i create beautiful frills that twirl beautifully when i dance, here i have layered three skirts, one in three layers and the other blue Marine. It's the only photo I have.
Yes I do a lot of skirt dancing. In general, I lift the hem before going on stage, I do it very little during the performance. And yes, those steering wheels move gracefully.
This is the method I use when I want to raise the sides of the skirt. Usually I use paper clips or zip ties to secure both sides. And I've never had a problem fitting.
Another solution also widely used in tribal fusion or belly dancing, is to tuck the sides of the skirt into the belt, do you think that could work ? Here is a photo as an example:
With your illustrations, I better understand this story of the influence of the play of light and the stage on the costumes that we choose.
We can see the difference between black on black and another brighter color. And I admit that instinctively the first dancer that the public looks at is...
It's perfect ! Because you're wearing black on a background that isn't black, that goes back to what Shanazel said. Great performance by the way! 😉
I had the same problem with my skirt in black red orange, the skirt was big, literally touching the floor, and since I didn't feel like tripping...
As you say, it all depends on the stage lighting. I say this because I'm used to dancing in general on a lighter background than black. I agree with you that black absorbs a lot of light, but on youtube I've seen a lot of dancers wearing black... on black. Apparently I'm not the only one who...
Thank you all for your advice, compliments and suggestions! 😊
In the end, the costume is first of all a question of personal taste, we like it or we don't like it, and we can't please everyone. Everyone has a different take on the belly dance costume. Some are content with just a skirt and...
Hello,
I thought exactly the same thing, indeed, for the premiere, a top in the colors of the skirt in the folk style would be very beautiful, I love this style! For the hips, a belt with black red orange and yellow colors would not be bad either, I will ask my designer on Etsy. But In my...
I totally understand Zorba when he said he needed the agreement of the dancing sisters to wear a costume with a skirt. In my opinion, this is a question that should not have been asked, if it is a tribal dance, and all the dancers wear skirts, then all dancers can wear skirts, men and women...
