Who are some inspirational Turkish Belly Dancers?

[nataliecloud9]

Hi Everyone!

I'm looking for some inspirational Turkish Dancers to look up to and watch on YouTube. :dance:

So far Didem and Asena seem popular and are very inspirational...
Who else is inspirational to you? Do any of them have instructional DVDs?

Thanks for your input!

My favorite Turkish dancer is Nesrin Topkapi.

Nesrin Topkapı , she is my teacher
Copy and paste the above Turkish spelling for YouTube serach as you get more videos posted by Turkish people.

You can also try Tanyeli, I like her style very much.

I find Tanyeli inspirational. I saw her perform in Sydney and thoroughly enjoyed her performance. What makes her inspirational was the fact that at the height of her career, she had a terrible car accident and was told she would never dance again - but she's back on stage still belly dancing and looking great.

I'm a big fan of Eva Cernik though her style tends to be more folkloric and rom inspired.
