on Turkish Belly Dance, the Rom style is unique in that it is characterized by
the use of footwork, culturally specific hand gestures, and an earthy feel.
Music is usually in the 9/8 rhythm, played with hand drums such as the
darbuka or doumbek, violin, ney, kanoon as well as prominent vocals.

explore the 9/8 rhythm, study specific movements, footwork and gestures
characteristic of this dance form, and dance a brief
improvisational style choreography.
