Indian Fusion - Irina Akulenko

I was browsing through YouTube and found a link to "Indian Tribal Fusion". I wasn't particularly impressed by that video, but followed a few more links to see what this style was all about. I then came across Irina Akulenko dancing Indian fusion.

I no nothing of Indian dancing, except that it is intertwined with religion and has very strict rules that must be followed. Fusion dance has only 1 rule (in my mind); honour the art forms and cultures you are fusing. This is the first time I've seen Indian tribal fusion and as I have no knowledge of Indian dance I can't really comment on any issues with appropriation, but I do think her performance is moving and soulful.
