Bellydance Show Elements and Props

This page is a guide to some of the show elements and props that can be a part of a bellydance show!
Typically a show includes 2-3 of these, plus audience participation.
Some props, such as LED or fire (not pictured) , may require an additional fee.
All videos are clips of live performance from Mariyah’s Instagram. You can see full length performance videos in the Gallery.
