Icons of Ancient Egyptian Dance

Many of the items that appear in the film were rather difficult to get access to and so a special mention is made here to the amazing Icons of Ancient Egyptian Dance that I had the opportunity to discover, in many cases for the very first time.

'Tomb Relief Depicting a Scene of Jubilation' New Kingdom, XIXth Dynasty, 1295-1187 JE 4872. Found in a private tomb in Sakkara, the sacred place of the Apis bulls. Notice the Dancers are naked except for there waxed wigs. This is a female dance depiction. 'Wall carving of Thothmes III dancing before the Goddess Hathor' This is a male dance depiction. But the heirogyphics indicate that he danced in a feminine manner to the great Goddess and presents her with a bird, more symbolic of deeper meaning as well.

About the video

The Enchanted dance is a film about Egyptian BellyDance, in two parts, essentially a learn to Belly Dance video, running time is 90 minutes and it is available on NTSC VHS (USA version) & PAL VHS (Australian version). A soundtrack accompanies the video and a small leaflet on Costume Design comes with the video as well.

Health & Fitness

Egyptian belly-dance is one of the best ways to loose weight and attain a high degree of health and fitness without straining the body. It may look as though only the lower half of the body is getting a workout, but in fact the whole body and internal organs all benefit. Estelle says this massaging of internal organs has a rejuvenating effect, increasing the secretion of hormones, expelling toxins and helping to replace dead cells. Belly dancing utilises body fat faster than other forms of exercise.
