I am strictly a belly dancer myself, and I agree completely that we should be spending the time focusing on developing our own style,presentation and skills rather than worrying about someone else's. I don't believe we have a very large burlesque community here in Ottawa, but I can see it could grow as the tribal style belly dance has begun to really catch on. When I produce shows, I am so grateful to have a mix of dance styles, and the audience loves it too! It is all about choice. Choose what works for you, and let others choose what works for them! Very well written.

Dance is a language, and fusion is slang. Gratefully, slang defines our culture in short hand. Without dance slang, we are nothing but elitist with pole up their tight asses. hmmm.
