Prop much?

Ladies,

You should know that your sword routine on the stairs makes you look like belly dance ninjas who have been hired as a security force rather than the entertainment. Thumbs up to you on that. However, do any of you ladies actually dance? I can't tell because every one has a damn prop to work around. Where's the dancing? I only see repetitive spinning and some half-ass cane moves. And are hip scarves badges of honor? Can only fearless ninja belly dancers wear them? Does a hip scarf denote tribal leadership? I wanna know because your "Saidi" number only has one hip scarf and three ladies. Looks tacky, I think. C'mon, you two other ladies can get hip scarves from eBay for like 15 bucks. Don't be so stingy!

    Uuuhmmm... were they even listening to the music they were "dancing" to? Aren't we supposed to be (as Hossam Ramsy always states) the embodiment/visual expression of the music?! That was depressing. =(

      Maybe the video used different music than what they actually danced to? They weren't a complete trainwreck like a lot of the videos here, they were perfectly fine intermediate student performances. The ninja sword dancers thing was pretty funny though.
