DANCE 101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Belly Dance, Partner Dance, Social Dance
Document Summary
It has been said that in the argentine tango clubs, if a dancer hogs the floor without courtesy to others, other tango couples will start to herd that dancer out the door. Consider each dance form as its own society and examine the rules and structures that are set forth. Describe how each group viewed dancing as sexually inappropriate on cook islands. They may come very close, in a teasing display of gender-specific movements, but good dancers take pride in their ability to fit their bodies together in matching cunes without actually touching. The focus was on the lower part of the body, side to side hip swinging by the women and vigorous knee flapping by the men. To the missionaries this was sufficient evidence that satan ruled here unopposed. Define fitna and who is responsible for whose body: fitna described the loss of control a man might experience when in the presence of an attractive woman.
