This article addresses sensitivity production in the process of developing a belly dancing body and the political changes resulting from that. This work comes from a Master’s thesis in Institutional Psychology. The research field of this intervention-research was a university extension project offered to seven women who did not know that dance style. Its methodology included recording the classes on video and conducting qualitative analysis of the material under Deuleuze-Guattari’s conception of art and the critical view about Orientalism. One of the main results obtained was deconstructing the dominant feeling and movement politics created by the sensitivities and gestures that arose in the dance learning process. Participants’ statements in these recordings allow us to conclude that the process of developing a dancing body bears power to destabilize culturally settled perceptions and feelings.
