    Belly Dance Mondays.

    Looks like Monday has officially become Belly Dance Class day. I loved my class. The teacher was super friendly and gave me lots of feedback, which I really need. One of the reasons I never went back to yoga class was the utter lack of any feed back. The studio was small, but nice. Clean and well decorated with a cute little change room. (it's too cold here to walk about in work out clothes)

    She said she was confident that with time belly dance would help me lose what I call "The Buddha Belly". I really want to tone up my core, which is the last thing left of my post accident pudge. She also said it would help my posture (which is terrible!) and help me feel more graceful.

    So now I'm on the "New Hobby Shopping Spree" And what shopping it is with all the pretty music and clothes. :) I bought a CD off of iTunes ($8 and change is a steal for a CD. I pay $7 - 8 for used CDs) and I ordered a pretty hip belt off of eBay. Shaggy thought it was really pretty too.

    I'd like to get a full length mirror and a book soon, but I want to see if I can find dance move descriptions online. I really just need a refresher between classes and I'd really like to practice at home.

    'Cause we all know, in anything, practice makes perfect. :)

    There are a some good walkthroughs on You Tube that talk through the moves as well as show them. I'm not sure about descriptions online though... I haven't seen any of that. If you find some, let me know!

    I'm so jealous! I have a bellydancing DVD I do every other day for a half hour for fitness; but it's just not the same as a class, with actual people and stuff.. Oh well. I'm sure if I look hard enough, I could find a class like that...
