Belly dance, known natively as Raqs Sharqi ("Dance of the Orient"), is a traditional Middle Eastern dance form characterized by intricate muscle isolations and torso-driven movements. Unlike many Western dance forms that emphasize linear arm and leg motions, belly dance focuses on fluid, percussive, and shivering movements of the hips and abdomen.
