About 
Our Style

  In the 2000's, the term AMCAB was invented.  With this ,American cabaret, came the confusion that this meant American dance.
in actuality, "belly dance" in the formative years here, was put into action by immigrants wants to feel at home. The bands, restaurants etc were all owned and populated by those of the blood. Even our first music to learn with, was directed to the middle eastern person, now living in the USA .nothing was dumbed down, "whited out" recorded for the western ear .THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO TAUGHT US TO DANCE!  We did not tell them what we were going to do, they taught us.  From the men in the band to the grandma in the kitchen, we were taught by all. Just as in the days of the silk road, a melting pot...but all middle eastern.  This is the tradition we carry on.  We use no American fusion of any type!.  we are old school, as taught by the blood. 

  Zamora's teaches an Ancient Arabic style of belly dancing (as opposed to modern Egyptian). All dancers learn specific moves and forms from the entire Middle Eastern region. They learn the structure of the dance through the moves which then provides them with a solid foundation on which to draw while performing. That means that each piece performed by Zamora's students will be a new creation. The selections are not choreographed. Zamora's students are trained to dance from the soul, each student with their own unique free style. Students are also taught how to listen to music in order to allow it to guide them, thus eliminating the need to choreograph. Students are taught so that a deaf person could see the music in dance. Dancers respond to sound with a movement that depicts it. Dancers also fragment steps to depict punctuation to follow instrument and vocal inflection.
