I love video

Video clips and films that I find for you and tell you what it contains before you even watch. There are lot of videos out there but most of them are useless - so don't waste your time finding the great ones. They are right here. Pick from the ones on this page or just follow the links to old clips. If you have a video that you want to post here, please contact us.

Indian movie clip with a funny dance

Yea, I am serious; there are actually Bollywood workout music videos. While this one does not appear to be more like a party (I am assuming that it is some kind of family gathering since there are people of all ages, though I like the part that there are more women than men). What struck me though is the intensity of the dance - if you dance with this music video, you have my permission to skip your trip to the gym today. And by the way, there are sub-titles in English though the lyrics are as meaningless as those in a reggaeton video.

And by the way if you are looking for a more genuine Indian Bollywood style dancing, check this video.

Bellydancers perform live for an audience video

I have featured so many excellent belly dancing videos, but it seems that there are so many more out there that are excellent.

This particular clip is of several bellydancers that perform in front of a live audience. Note that the way we go to theater or movies or standup comedy shows, people in the Middle East visit these cafes and nightclubs where professional belly dancers (and not all of them are Middle Eastern women - many come from former Soviet Union countries) perform. And unlike this one, some performances feature both male and female dancers. This video has been filmed in one of these locations.

Amani Jabril bellydancing video

Bellydancing has evolved a lot in recent years. While it continues to be a dance for entertainment, in many countries, women also use it to workout. However, there are still dancers that dance for the sake of its artistic value. Amani Jabril is one of those belly dancers.

AS someone with an academic approach (Middle East Institute at Georgia State University and advisor to the Georgia State University Dance Ensemble), she is famous for her choreography and fusion of contemporary moves with classical technique. This video clip shows her solo bellydancing performances - one of the best.
