Belly Dance & Ehnic Dance Fusions
The word Khelashi comes from a Romany word meaning "dancer" or "player".
Romany language is based on sanskrit but adapts many words and expressions from different cultures during their travels.
Khelashi Dance takes it's roots from the different Styles of Egyptian and Oriental Belly Dance and fuses them with other dances from along the Gypsy Trail - Indian Dance, Eastern European Dance and Spanish Dance.
In Performances, these dances can be enjoyed in there pure traditional forms as well as in modern fusions.
