To dance is to be out of yourself, larger, more beautiful, more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking. – Agnes de Mille

Fusion & Tribal Belly Dance

Welcome to the world of Fusion, Tribal and Bellydance, a colorful exciting dance community where the very essence of women is celebrated!

Belly dance, or Oriental Dance as its actually called, has been a universal language uniting women in the East for centuries. More recently this dance form has found an enthusiastic in the West.

Tribal and Fusion Bellydance is a style that has been created using the basic steps of Oriental dance, a dance that developed from the shapes and possibilities of a woman’s body, then mixing it with Western dance styles as modern, jazz ballet, hip hop and more. Originally Shimmy Shake has been a platform for the cross-over of Oriental dance with Western styles to give support to a new dance genre. From this year 2024 onwards, we are going to return to the roots and present Oriental dance alongside Fusion.

Tribal, Fusion and Belly dance appeal to all shapes and sizes, ages and types of women and these days are practiced all around the planet. Dancers use this universal language to communicate with each other and with other dancers in one big strong and supportive community that embraces difference. To bring joy through movement, to touch people’s hearts and to ignite the fire of creativity in those who dance it.
