Me again, sorry!
I came across this website which discusses some Middle Eastern dances which are seen as rituals. The author goes into detail about what the dances mean and the spiritual connection that the performers gain from it.
One of the rituals I found most fascinating was the 'Zar/Zaar' and here are some of my favourite videos of it from Youtube:
Zar 1
Zar 2
I think it is beautifully mesmorising yet disturbing at the same time.
Jess.
