Ep 7: Ego in Belly Dance

vendredi 31 juillet 2026 • Durée 41:32

What is ego—and what role does it play in our lives as dancers?

In this episode, we dive into the ways ego can shape our experiences in the bellydance world. From competition and comparison to rejection, validation, and identity, we explore how ego influences not only our dancing, but also the way we relate to ourselves and each other.

Together, we reflect on the challenges of pursuing excellence while staying humble, supporting our fellow dancers, and remembering that we are more than our accomplishments.

In this episode, we discuss:

What ego really is.
How ego shows up in the dance community.
Competition, comparison, and rejection.
The relationship between identity and dance.
Healthy confidence versus ego.

Question for our listeners:

What’s one area in your dance life where your ego might be getting in the way?

Ep 5: What is SAMAR? An improvised raqs sharqi experience

vendredi 3 juillet 2026 • Durée 31:59

Ep. 5: What is SAMAR? An Improvised Raqs Sharqi Experience

“So… I have an idea.”

In this episode, we pull back the curtain on how SAMAR came to be—and what it’s evolving into. We talk about the early conversations that sparked the project, how we approach selecting music, and why improvisation in Raqs Sharqi felt like something the community was missing. At its core, SAMAR is about creating space for live music, connection, and a different kind of bellydance experience—one that feels a little more raw, a little more spontaneous, and very alive. We’re also excited to share that Melissa Gamal is coming to town for SAMAR Presents in August! We talk about what’s coming up, the workshops she’ll be teaching, and why we’re so excited to bring her here.

CTA: Your Turn SEEK OUT LIVE MUSIC! Follow the Canadian Arabic Orchestra. Take advantage of any live Arabic music you're able to access. And would you want to see Melissa on the podcast? Tell us—and we’ll see if we can convince her

Ep 3: The Mindset that supports becoming a better Belly Dancer

vendredi 26 juin 2026 • Durée 37:52

Ep. 3: The Mindset That Supports Becoming a Better Belly dancer

"How do I get better?" It's one of the most common questions in bellydance, and in this episode, we explore an answer that has nothing to do with learning the next combo or buying a prettier costume. We talk about the mindset that supports long-term growth: learning to enjoy the process, embracing the inevitable boring bits, and staying fascinated with learning even when progress feels slow. Bellydance rewards consistency more than talent. One of us shares what it was like to spend nearly 20 years before finally feeling like the hard work was paying off in the way she'd always hoped. Spoiler alert: growth takes time, and the dancers who stick with it are often the ones who learn to love the journey—not just the destination. If you've ever felt impatient, stuck, or wondered whether you're making progress at all, this episode is for you. Resources Insight Timer (free meditation app)https://insighttimer.com/

CTA: Try This This week, try a short meditation—even two minutes counts. It can help build the patience and focus that every dancer needs. Then head to Instagram or the comments of your favorite listening platform and tell us: 1) how it went, and 2) what's one mindset shift that's helped you become a better dancer? We'd love to hear your thoughts and continue the conversation.

Ep 2: What's so great about belly dance, anyway?

vendredi 26 juin 2026 • Durée 34:56

What's So Great About Belly dance, Anyway?

Seriously...what is the big deal? In this episode, we're unapologetically gushing about why belly dance has us in a chokehold. We share our own reasons for falling in love with this dance, why we keep coming back, and how belly dance has impacted our lives far beyond the studio. We also chat about the mental and physical benefits of dance—including fascinating research on how dancing supports brain health and may help reduce the risk of dementia. Whether you're a seasoned dancer, bellydance-curious, or still convinced you have "two left feet," pull up a chair—we think you'll leave this episode seeing dance a little differently.

Ep 4: The Hobbyist Bellydancer vs The Pro Bellydancer #whereamiat

vendredi 26 juin 2026 • Durée 54:20

Ep. 4: The Hobbyist Bellydancer vs. the Pro Bellydancer

Should you keep bellydance as a hobby...or is it time to go pro?In this episode, we unpack the differences between hobbyist and professional dancers—and why neither path is "better" than the other. Bellydance is meant to be enjoyed, whether you're dancing for yourself, your community, or your career. We also tackle the big questions: I want to be a professional...what do I do? Am I ready? We talk about the benchmarks that matter, what being a professional actually looks like, and why there's room for everyone in this art form. One thing we know for sure? If the world was ending...we'd still be dancing.

CTA: Your Turn Take an honest look at your own dance journey. Are you dancing for joy? For connection? For performance? For a career? There's no wrong answer—but knowing your "why" can help you make better decisions about where to invest your time and energy .After you've done your self-analysis, come tell us: Are you a hobbyist, an aspiring professional, or somewhere in between? We'd love to hear your perspective.
