What I found most wonderful is that this deliciously dark dance is done with a barely suppressed grin. Let's admit it-power fells good! There is a joyfulness in confident strength. Well and truly done!

Truly wonderful. I used to bellydance back in 2006 and it never occurred to me to do so with the music I love. Heilung is perfect for this!

I keep coming back to this. It really makes me feel better watching something so beautiful in such troubling times.

[rjjm]

That genuinely took my breath away. Beautiful, powerful, and graceful all at once.

[lholdier]

This is the greatness of both cultures, the godlike Crossover!

[Iamaghoul]

I've rarely seen something so sensual, and modest whilst being artistic. This was wonderful! Thank you :)

Dark, deep and beautiful. Fabulous. Love heilung. This dance is very trance like and draws you in. Amazing! It seems to invoke the dark feminine within! Poweful!

[gozerthegozarian]

Gothic Bellydance! Oh my stars, this is amazing!

[hannaewelina]

My favourite belly dancer ever! Love from Poland!

Something beautiful, both the music and of course the dance that makes a beautiful effect. The whole thing is surely remembered for a long time. SUPER!

Does anyone else get the idea that this is a seductive dance to transfix you right before she assassinates you? And then she'll fly off as a raven...

To a woman who can dance like that to a song like this, the answer is always yes lol.

Kiitos Anni for bringing this enchanting creativity together for us to enjoy.

From a dancer who has lost her passion for the art: THANK YOU. <3

[raxamonbathory]

Absolutely powerful and expressive! Color me duly impressed!

[jesstowns]

Wow, a fusion of bellydance with maybe Modern, hip hop, Indian, Balinese, Gabrielle Roth, some Tai chi, etc. Very inspiring!

[jacmon]

The beauty in this movement brought me to tears. It's brought me to the edge of re-membering something important I've lost.

I literally felt like I was the only person dancing at Red Rocks this year when they did ceremony. Very hard to believe majority of attendants were just spectators. How anyone isn’t swept up in the energy they cultivate is a mystery to me. Epic show. Also Very cool choreography 🙌🏻

Every since I found your video last week I have been watching it several times a day.
The combination of Heilung's music and your dance and aesthetics is absolutely mesmerizing. Truly an out-of-this-world experience. Simply amazing.
