Hi, my name is Sarah, and I have been a Bellydancer since I have memory. These are the main props I use on my shows because they look beautiful when you enter a place, and people will remember that entrance more than the show itself. Also, I use props during the show to make it entertaining but also because the music talk to us and there is a cultural aspect that Ineed to be respectfull off.
Great for entrances, Isis wings come with a variety of variations that can suit lots of needs. I use led Isis Wings and plain colors, and also I use separated Isis wings, Commonly found as Argentinian style, where their are not attached to your neck or ones that are separated flags
Fan Fails are cute for entrances and great to dance to melodies. It gives great figure and increases the aesthetics of the performance, and it makes it eye-catching.
I personally love these ones because they fly with ease and the quality is great. Laso They are heavy enough for me to feel the fan, and it makes it more stable for me to move them around.
The shamadam is like a head helmet that holds candles and shiny decorations. We use it to welcome the show, clean up the energy around the place, and make sure everyone gets ready to have a good time. It also helps to keep the mystery before the show starts.
Silk veils are the first prop, or how we call them in Venezuela, ELEMENT that most bellydancers practice with. The whole point of this one is to make the arm movements show more. It looks delicate, and it makes the dress have a bit of flow.
Bellydance Rithms can be marked by the bellydancer with this prop. This requires practice on rithmology and coordination; do not be afraid of trying. While practicing, I feel like it cleans my house from bad energies and it makes the house feel lighter for a reason I am still exploring.
I do not have videos of me using the last two, but soon I will be posting those on my social media @hips.bysarah have a look and get inspired.
I do not use chat GPT for my articles, as this is how I normally speak. But I love that you got to the end of this article.
There are plenty of props to explore, like fire elements. Sword, bellydance stick, dance baladi, and many others. But these are my favorites, and I would also like to find suppliers that I can guarantee are good quality for you and for me.
Sadly, on those elements I just mentioned, I am not very happy with the ones I have, but when I find the perfect ones, I will rewrite this section to add them.
