S2: Ep20 – How to Appreciate Belly dance Performance - Tanyeli

Nisreen Season 2 Episode 20

Hello, this is Nisreen! Welcome to the 20th episode of Season Two of my podcast! It’s lovely to speak with you again.

The other day, I heard some tragic news: legendary Turkish belly dancer Tanyeli had passed away after a battle with pancreatic cancer. She was only 54. I have been performing and teaching belly dance for years now, and Tanyeli has always been one of my dance icons.

Today, to celebrate the memory of her legacy, I’d like to highlight three aspects of her style that made her stage presence so unique. I hope this will help a broader audience appreciate her artistry, beyond just the belly dance community.
