This book's ethnographic approach mirrors the core of Cairo belly dance itself via attending to dual meanings of moving; centralizing mobility and movement as sites of power and knowledge, but also in researching and writing in ways that stir up poignant emotions that lead to physical reactions, change, and connection. In essence, the book captures the same aesthetics and values of Cairo belly dancing: to 'move' with greater feeling and to cultivate richer core connections within ourselves, between one another, and within our city-spaces. In doing so, it advocates for a heightened awareness of the intricate nuances present in otherwise marginalized bodily interaction and exchange, recognizing their potential to inspire into more revolutionary realities and relationships.
