A few photos I have of American Tribal

The only dancer that I personally know that has actual training in American Tribal dance:

This is not the best photo of this dancer, but shows off her costume well:

These photos were taken at a local RenFaire in Wichita KS, 2003. In the past few years, I have noticed a change in outfits at these semi-annual events. It used to be that the dancers would dress in more traditional gypsy style costumes (peasant shirts and cotton skirts with coin or bell based jewelry)… and some of them still do. Now it seems that a lot of the dancers are dressing in the newer “American” style. The biggest change that I have seen is the larger jewelry and the turbans.
