So bummed out! I spent all day working on my new assuit bra, getting my makeup on, practicing my solo (Sara B's Maqam choreo, which I LOVE), etc. The weather report was scattered thunder storms, 30% c...

Tonight I have to do a bit of work, so I only went to the early beginner class of Aziza Nawal. Aziza is a cabaret dancer, so once again there were a number of footwork-type moves that I was toally unfamiliar with. I was OK with the warm up & dri...

The Awalim classes were FAB! I learned a lot of new stuff!!!! The st...

First, my real dance name is Azadi. Picked it a while ago, found in a book about a girl growing up under the Taliban rule. Azadi means Freedom in Kurdish (I think it's Kurdish).
On to the trip. It took about 5.5 hours to get here, which was...

So bummed out! I spent all day working on my new assuit bra, getting my makeup on, practicing my solo (Sara B's Maqam choreo, which I LOVE), etc. The weather report was scattered thunder storms, 30% chance. Well they were way off because it was 100% chance & they were BAD!! I did get to go for a little while, which I am glad of. I saw John Price, Haala's hubby, from afar & did not even know who he was. I was kicking myself when I found out it...

Well, the last GA class weas excellent! Liora is very personable & both classes - beginner & intermediate -were a lot of fun. There were mainly older ladies (like myself :-) in the classes so I felt right at home! I think it's bacause the neighborhood is more suburbia & the class is at a rec center.

I got there LATE because of that pesky work stuff which ran way overtime. Had to rush to the hotel, change clothes, & run. The traffic was bad, but could...

Tonight I have to do a bit of work, so I only went to the early beginner class of Aziza Nawal. Aziza is a cabaret dancer, so once again there were a number of footwork-type moves that I was toally unfamiliar with. I was OK with the warm up & drilling, but when it got to the choreo, I had trouble keeping up. There are also a lot of arm movements in cabaret that I am not used to. I guess it is layering in general that I need to practice.

The Awalim classes were FAB! I learned a lot of new stuff!!!! The students all seemed in good spirits & the ladies in the troupe were amusing to listen too. Only one dark spot marred the evening, but more on that later...

On to the trip. It took about 5.5 hours to get here, which was making pretty good time. I found my hotel & checked in, then found the place where my business class is. The class location was not easy to find. Then, off to Borders to buy a map of Atlanta & to WalMart to get water, fruit, & nuts. I am startin...
