What to bring
Travel
light is our best advice to you, swimwear and T-shirts is all you will need on board in the daytime. In the evenings
people dress casually, but bring sweaters and trousers if you are coming in the cooler months. It's a good idea
to bring a pair of soft shoes or sandals just to use on the boat.
On board we provide hand towels only so please bring your own bath and beach towels. All this should be packed
into a soft bag which can be folded and stowed away to give more room in your cabin, not a suitcase.
The Mediterranean sun is very bright and on a boat hotter than you think, be sure to pack sunglasses, a good suntan
lotion and a hat. If mosquitos find you tasty then bring mosquito repellent and a camera is an absolute must.

Origins of the Belly Dance
Wherever it began, this kind of dance has a long history in Northern Africa and the Middle East. Outside the Middle
East, raqs sharqi dancing was popularized during the Romantic movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, whereby
Orientalist artists depicted their interpretations of harem life in the Ottoman Empire. Around this time, dancers
from different Middle Eastern countries began to perform at various World Fairs.
Historically, most of the dances associated with belly dance were performed with the sexes separated; men with
men and women with women. Artistic depiction of belly dancing The origins of this dance form are actively debated
among dance enthusiasts, especially given the limited academic research on the topic. Much of the research in this
area has been done by the dancers themselves. However, the often overlooked fact that most dancing in the Middle
East occurs in a social context rather than the more visible and glamorous context of professional nightclub performance,
has led to a misunderstanding of the dance's true nature and has given rise to many conflicting theories about
its origins. Because this dance is a fusion of many different styles it undoubtedly has a variety of origins, many
of which stem from ethnic folk dancing.
The traditional birthing practices theory relates to a sub-set of dance movements found in modern raqs sharqi.
Although lacking ideas about the exact origin of belly dance, this theory does have the advantage of being supported
by numerous oral historical references, and is backed by commentary in The Dancer of Shamahka.
Techniques

|
Bellydance with Sahere
|
Most of the basic steps and techniques used in belly dancing involve circular motions isolated to a certain part
of the body. For example, a circular movement "drawn" parallel to the floor by the hips is known as a
"hip circle", or by the rib-cage known as a "chest circle". Accents such as "hip lifts"
or "drops" are use to draw the eye to hip movement such as "shimmies or hip circles", while
shoulder or arm movements are to accent chest or belly undulations. Dancers often dance while balancing various
props like baskets, swords or canes as well as using silk or chiffon veils and wings for dramatic dance pieces.
Costume
The costume now associated with this dance is called bedlah in Arabic (meaning "suit"), and was adopted
by dancers in Egypt in the 1930s, eventually spreading to other countries in the region. It owes its creation to
the harem fantasy productions of vaudeville, burlesque, and Hollywood during the turn of the last century, rather
than to actual authentic Middle Eastern dress.
The mainstays of costuming for the bedlah style include a fitted top or bra (usually with a fringe of beads or
coins), a fitted hip belt (again with a fringe of beads or coins), and a skirt(s) (straight, layered, circular,
or paneled). In the western world a "veil" - a 3-1/2 to 4-yard piece of fabric - may also be used to
accentuate swirling arm movements throughout an entire dance or part of a dance.
