Some places for information on dancing

One of the things I plan on emphasizing through the way I teach dancing is the history that Eastern-style dancing has in it's many forms. I will be teaching a dance style called Raqs Sharqi (pronounced Rocks Sharkye), which is a form of stage belly-dance often called cabaret belly dance, but will discuss the dance style associated with India, tribal dance fusion, and the differences between Egyptian belly-dancing and Turkish belly-dancing.

Here are some excellent places to learn about belly-dance on the web.
