So I'm learning to belly dance...

Or attempting.
I got a tutorial from borders, i've been reading up about it online, i've been getting books and movies from the library and I am very exciting.
It's apparently really good for your body, rasies your selfestem and is fun.

I've been practicing for the past week and I'm already feeling better (Or as good as I can seeing as I look insane when i dance because I don't do it right, haha).

What is your guys view on belly dancing?

 

I tried it before and it was so fun!
Also, I saw a Shakira video and HAD to learn to do that hip thing.


I can now

 

My view is youtube.

 

haha.
I looked on there but got a book with more details.
Then today I went crazy and took a bra and added beads and such.

 

where i am from belly dancing is a mating ritual for young girls.

 

Ohhhhh deeaarrrrr.
Where are you from again?

 

my palestinian friends tried teaching me a few times. it's really fun and pretty hot when it's done right. i think i should go summon some of my other arab "friends" to teach me again. i've never read into it though.

do you do it with the jingly scarf tied to your waist? is it easier for curvier women?

 

lots of fun. it comes naturally to me.

 

My view?

When the beat is hot, you have to follow it.

 

I'm not curvy at all, so I have no idea. And I don't have a scarf. I have a ribbon with beads on it and I tie it on when I dance. Then I sewed some of the string to a bra and I dance with that. i'll take a picture in a little bit and show you. It's alot easier to see then explain, haha.

 

its a lot hotter when you're holding a knife and i'm cuffed to the bed

 

How about chained to the bed and I have a sword?

 

i used to belly dance and was pretty good at it. its a good way to celebrate curviness

 

hahah that looks sick! you made it?? impressiveee

 

I was so freakin excited. The beads were getting tangled int he thread and I was about to shoot someone.

 

Congrats! I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun, and learn a seductive new dance!

I wouldn't mind learning belly dancing, I've got the curves to do it, I've got good rhythm and poise from all of my dance training, and I've got a major natural sway to my hips going on anyway. I think it would be a lot of fun, and I know my husband would love it.

 

So does eating lots of cake.

 

So Does A Pizza A Day.....:drool5:
