Belly Dance Tribe

Belly Dance Tribe has been performing in the San Francisco Bay Area and the Wine Country of Northern California since 1996. With a strong foundation in the Egyptian and American cabaret styles, Belly Dance Tribe have grown and evolved creatively over the years. Study of the various folkloric forms of Middle Eastern Dance has included Moroccan, Saidi, and Tunisian. Each troupe member has backgrounds in modern and jazz dance, which lends a lyrical, highly expressive element to choreographies. Belly Dance Tribe have embraced fusion of Middle Eastern Dance with other dance styles, including flamenco, classical Indian dance, and hip-hop. Today, Belly Dance Tribe is well known in the dance community for their refreshing energy, eclectic choreography, and engaging stage presence that smoothly oscillates between playful and reverent.

The troupe has provided entertainment at the most acclaimed San Francisco restaurants and clubs, such as Byblos, Marrakech, Pasha, and El Valenciano and Amira.
