Raks Sharqi with Magdy El-Leisy 2005, Belly Dance DVD

Dancers who like to know what the lyrics mean before they perform a choreography will love this video. Magdy starts his workshop with an explanation of the lyrics, then presents hand movements that emphasize the meaning of the song. If you can get past the shaky camera work and workshop setting, you’ll have a great pop song you can perform to. Taped live during Magdy’s February 2005 workshop in Dallas. The song used in this choreography is track #4 on Magdy’s “For the Love of the Dance” CD.
