Maybe I'm watching too much YouTube lately, but sometimes I get tired of seeing interchangeable dancers. You know what I'm talking about- Dancer #1 dances like Dancer #2, who uses the same combos as #3, who copied her teacher's (Dancer #4's) style.

I'm getting to really dig the dancers who have individual...how can I say this...quirks? uniquenesses?

Something that no one else does, or no one else does the same way.

So let's start out with my current goddess-in-human-form, Ranya Renee dancing baladi. Uniqueness: RELAXATION. How does she managed to look so darn relaxed? No one does baladi like Ranya does Baladi!

On to the next: Karen Barbee. I was researching her in preparation for possibly taking a workshop when she comes to town. Uniqueness: ARMS/HANDS. Watch the video through and notice her interesting sharp movements.
