  • Belly Dancing

    the Sensual Art of Energy and Spirit

    Coluccia, Pina
    This book reminds me very much of early 2000's at Books a Million. All of those books you'd find on the tables in the middle? It has those vibes with glossy pages, lots of mini chapters and photos.

  • Belly Dancing Basics

    Cooper, Laura A.
    Okay, if the previous book gave me early 2000's vibes, this one REALLLY does. It is published by Gaia and very much follows their how-to guide style books with loads of pictures demonstrating steps in the process.

  • Middle Eastern Dance

    AlZayer, Penni
    This book is like an intro to a bunch of different styles, with a chapter on Belly Dancing about 2/3 of the way through. It is a cool look at several styles and types of dances. You may find you want to explore beyond belly dancing.

  • Belly Dancing for Fitness

    the Ultimate Dance Workout That Unleashes Your Creative Spirit

    Dallal

  • Grandmother's Secrets

    the Ancient Rituals and Healing Power of Belly Dancing

    Al-Rawi, Rosina-Fawzia B.
    This is a kind of memoir that came onto the scene before we had loads of memoirs. It's neat - I recommend!
    Book, 1999New York : Interlink Books, [1999] — 793.3 ALR

  • Belly Dancing

    the Serpent and the Sphinx

    Buonaventura, Wendy, 1950-
    Okay, but THIS is an "old" book. Take a look at this interesting perspective on Belly Dancing that may be older than you are.
    Book, 1983London : Virago, [1983] — 793.3

  • The Belly Dancer

    Cameron, DeAnna
    Whew! I love to include fiction in lists, and this lets me. It DOES seem a little "sensual" but maybe you're into that?
