It would depend on the style of belly dance that you are doing and the movements that you're doing!. It might be easier in some styles than others to take advantage of something unique about yourself!. When focusing on torso movements, it probably doesn't matter!. When you do arm movements just be sure to practice, and possibly videotape yourself, so you are sure that you look the way that you really want to look while executing that movement!. Same idea with props!. I rather suspect that Tribal Fusion Belly Dance style could be something that you might want to try!.
Rachel Brice, Sharon Kihara, Darshan!.!.!. are just a few notable Tribal Fusion style dancers!. I've had a workshop with Darshan and really loved it!. Others in my troupe have had workshops with Sharon Kihara and Rachel Brice and they said they enjoyed them and learned so much!.

I wouldn't say having long arms would be an advantage or a disadvantage!. I'd say that was irrelevant as bellydancing is all about the middle of your body and the hips etc!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would say advantage!. You can use those long arms gracefully in alluring moves!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

neither because belly dancing is mainly using your hips so your arms dont really matter that much and what belly dance classes do u take i am looking for one really bad but i cant find oneWww@QuestionHome@Com
