About us
The translation of Boomshanka means "May the seed of your loins be fruitful in the belly of your woman"
For years women have danced together and for each other and they still do! Over time, Bellydance has travelled across the globe picking up influences and developing along the way.
While 'Tribal' style originated from the United States, in many ways it goes back to the roots of the dance - that is dancing together and feeling part of a group or community.
Boomshanka Tribal Belly Dancers are a colourful and energetic troupe from Sheffield.
We dance our own unique style that we like to call 'British Tribal Fusion' bellydance; a mix-up that draws on the influences from Zehara and the Urban Gypsies and the varied experience of our members in traditional Egyptian, Tribal Fusion, street dance, African and other worldly styles.
Do you want to dance?
Each of the troupe is experienced in running workshops where you can have some fun whilst learning to shake that booty. Our workshops are ideal as a birthday present or as part of your Hen weekend.
Boomshanka Tribal Belly Dancers are made up of the performance troupe - Ceri, Cis, Jess, Rachel, Rosie, Ula and Zoe. You can find out more about us in Profiles.
