Thank you for sharing this observation. I have long said that the “Sharq” in Raqs Sharqi came from east of Egypt. We invite readers to examine these photos from the 2013 Silk Road Dance Festival for examples of beautiful, fluid arms. http://john-g-walter.photoshelter.com/gallery-collection/Silk-Road-Dance-Festival-2013/C0000AEBZAjoEgfA More examples can be found on http://www.facebook.com/silkroaddance and video clips on http://www.youtube.com/silkroaddancecompany
