 Americak Raqs Sharki- Past and Present
I call it "American Raks Sharqi" because I believe that the American enthusiasm for this dance form has not discriminated between regional differences in presenting the dance and beyond that has borrowed freely from Western dance forms in seeking to present something interesting to American audiences.
American interest in Raks Sharqi developed in the milieu of the early 1970s, a period of women’s exploration and growth that followed on the enthusiastic overturning of social norms and standards during the 1960s.
As far as the development of Raks Sharqi as an ethnic dance art, we may be better off in some ways today because the focus is more on the dance itself.

Yana described this dance as "a fiery and exuberant one that taps into the Balkan passion and temperament." These folk dances move the group toward a more ethnic and diverse direction, reminding the audience that the dances of the Balkans, Anatolia and Middle East go far beyond belly dance.
