Camelia at the Nairuz Weekend in Malaga, 2015. Photo by Rub\u00e9n Lozano <br>(Beigbeder 2015)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, there is a video (Aleya Cairo Bellydance, 2013) where Camelia is dancing on the Nile Maxim Boat in Cairo with a live band and her style is very energetic, close to Randa\u2019s, but a bit softer. The comments under the videos show different opinions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dynamic and energetic, but so far from being elegant and refined. Perfect for a restaurant. <\/p>\n<cite>(Amira Abdi oriental belly dance)<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The problem is that people are so used to see belly dancers with perfect hair, make up, doing everything in the perfect second . . . but the real feeling of bellydance you can see here . . . For me this is the true essence of this Dance!!!<\/p>\n<cite>(Emanuel Keller). <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It seems that this reflects a general split between two different images of Raqs sharqi dancers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Afrangi_vs_Baladi\"><\/span>Afrangi vs Baladi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On one end of the spectrum there are the soft elegant ones, more \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/arabic-terms-bellydance\/\">afrangi<\/a>\u2019, such as Samia Gamal and Lucy, and on the other the more grounded energetic, \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/arabic-terms-bellydance\/\">baladi<\/a>\u2019 ones, like Fifi Abdou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, the division is not always neat and clear. Sometimes dancers take on different personas depending on the music and the audience and there are extremes, but there are also many nuances in between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, there seem to be two general tendencies, almost a difference in personalities as well as dancing style, from the more relaxed and sweeter to the more assertive and fierier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indeed, I found a video from the 2014 <em>Nile Group Festival <\/em>(Daniella Cairo, 2014a), in which Camelia\u2019s dancing could be qualified as extremely assertive and suggestive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The music is <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sharqidance.com\/blog\/saidi-rhythm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Saidi<\/a><\/span>, and the dance style is Shaabi, which requires a certain amount of assertiveness and, from the performance it seems that, as Lorna pointed out, Camelia enjoys shocking the audience (who, however, seem to be having fun). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*One of the videos analyzed is no longer available on YouTube. The other can be viewed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/y3gnysmb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img data-src=\"https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/dance-binarism-paper.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/dance-binarism-paper.jpg 560w, https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/dance-binarism-paper-480x270.jpg 480w\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15476 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 560px, 100vw\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/dance-binarism-paper.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15476\" srcset=\"https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/dance-binarism-paper.jpg 560w, https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/dance-binarism-paper-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 560px, 100vw\"><\/noscript><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Next Page >> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/worlddanceheritage.org\/sahar-samara\/\">Analysis of Sahar Samara, a modern but mellow belly dancer<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Camelia Background Camelia teaches at the Nile Group Festival and, according to its website (no date), she started her career as a folkloric dancer in the late 90s and later she started dancing raqs sharqi.
