![]() ![]() ![]() So one year my cousin asked me what I wanted for my birthday and I told him I wanted a record of Arabic music. I used to listen to those, but I was more attracted to the Arabic music. There were several radio programs at that point that played music from the Middle East and India and Greece. It really starts much earlier than that, because before I started taking dance classes, I was listening to the music and that was my attraction at the beginning. ![]() I started in 1985 right after I finished high school. Well, I’ve been dancing now for, I think, about 30 years. Tarik, can you tell me a little bit about your background? And I’m really excited to feature Tarik Sultan. He’s a fabulous male dancer out of Jersey City, and he’s going to talk about a lot of amazing parts of dance and history that a lot of us don’t know anything about. I am so pleased to have Tarik Sultan on the show. Find out what makes Egyptian dancers look authentic and what can make Western dancers look a little fake, what makes dancers sexy, and why belly dancers in the Middle East are still stigmatized. ![]()
