Tannoura Dance and Belly Dance at Desert Safari Dubai


Tannoura Dance



Tannoura is a Middle Eastern folk dance derived from the whirling dance performed as a Sufi religious practice.  The word "tannoura" may refer to the dance, the dancer, or the large skirt used in the performance. Tannoura Dancing is a kind of Sufi dance. Sufism is a semi mystical branch of Islam with somewhat unorthodox approach of prayer. Urged on by hypotonic pulse of drums and pipes, the dancers spin in a blur of multicolored skirts (tannoura).
Originally the dance had the ideal of attaining a trancelike union with God. It may not now be wholly authentic, but it is a great spectacle.
People have observed the Tannoura performed by individuals at nightclubs, festivals, Desert Safaris and sometimes, also have participated in a folkloric tannoura workshop. A lot of tour operators and Desert Safari excursion organizers provide an entertaining tannoura dance show and Belly Dance shows as an added attraction while on a desert safari Dubai recreation.



Belly Dancing

Belly dance or belly dance is a "Western"-coined name for a traditional "West Asian" dance. It is sometimes also called Middle Eastern dance or Arabic dance in the West.

The term "belly dance" is a translation of the French "danse du ventre" which was applied to the dance in the Victorian era. It is something of a inaccuracy as every part of the body is involved in the dance; the most featured body part is usually the hips. Belly dance takes many different forms depending on the country and region; both in costume and dance style, and new styles have evolved in the West as its popularity has spread globally. Although contemporary forms of the dance have generally been performed by women, some of the dances, particularly the cane dance, have origins in male forms of performance.



Belly dancing is based on one of the oldest social dances in world history, originating in North Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Belly dancing is both a beautiful form of dance and a great way to exercise. It'll help you stay in shape and allow you to express your personal creativity. Belly dancing is enjoyed by many people all over the world. Perhaps the most distinguishing feature of belly dancing is the isolated movements performed by the abdomen. These belly movements may be circular, rolling, angular or vibrating.



Belly dance is both captivating and enticing. A lot of tour operators in Dubai offer belly dancing entertainment shows some of the renowned tours operators are www.desertrangers.com, www.northtours.com, www.Desertsafaridubaitour.com, & www.dubaidesertsafari.ae
