Phase I of restructuring is complete!

by Cassandra on 08/22/11

You may have noticed that the main page of Middle Eastern Dance.net has changed!  This is our new look and format that will be gradually applied in phases to the rest of the site.  Our new navigation menus are along the top of the page just under the banner.  I have officially finished re-organizing the structure of the Before you begin section and it's sub pages.  You'll notice a new set has been added to this section about styles of dance.  I do currently have two styles linked up and pretty much ready to go but the rest will get up there eventually (probably after I finish updating everything to the new structure and look).  All of the links should be correctly reconfigured in that section so if you had something bookmarked there you could now re-bookmark it under it's new url so that you can access it easily.  It won't be changing for a long time now.  Next up is the Movements section.  This is Phase II and I expect it to take a long time as it's got a lot of pages in that section.  Good news is that as each page is updated you may find new instructional videos and information so be sure to check back frequently!

Ahalan Wa Sahalan!  Welcome to Middle Eastern Dance.  This site is an informational resource on Middle Eastern Dance.  Although the main focus is on what is commonly called "Belly Dance" there is information on other dances of the Middle East, North Africa, Mediterranean, Balkans, and the Indian Sub-continent.  My goal is to give people (dancers especially) easy access to understanding the dances and cultures from which they come.  With somewhere around 400 pages and growing this site is full of information to keep you busy.  Take some time to look around, you won't regret it.  I've tried to organize information into logical hierarchies so please explore.  Use the navigation menu at the top of the screen to check out the different pages.  There are hundreds of pages of how-to's many of which now feature video and other visual or audio aids.  Learn about history, music, styles and more.  If your a dancer looking to advertise your services for hire check out the Dancer's Directory, just fill out this form for a listing. You can also advertise you classes if you are an instructor in our classes directory by filling out the following form.  If you own a Middle Eastern or Mediterranean Restaurant or Deli and would like to list your Restaurant in our Restaurant section please fill out the following form.  Visit the chat room and talk with fellow dancers.  If you have a minute please take some time to vote in the polls.  Be sure to check back regularly to see what's new!
