First Performance

Tonight was my first performance bellydancing. I made all of my costume, from scratch, except for the belt. It was awesome. We did a turkish drop... Yes, I did one too. It was slow and safe. :D I wish I had gotten some pics, but alas, the only one of me... well I look not so hot. But I will post pics of my costume soon. Love you Natalie. :p

Dance Pants and More!

Yesterday I finally started work on my pants. I have a gorgeous paisley material; they're going to be so rad. My top is in the works, too, with help from my friend in the fabrics department at work. Classes with my friend Natalie are starting tomorrow, and I have not danced in months it seems, so I am excited to start. Finally! Space and peace to dance. My baby can now say mama, and he started crawling yesterday. :D

Mardi Love Workshop

I got to go to Seattle yesterday for Mardi's workshop. I got up at 5:30 am, left at 7am, drove till 11 am, waited till noon, worked my tail off at the workshop till 4pm, finally ate a meal, and drove home, getting back at 8:30pm. What a day. But I would do it again in a heartbeat. I wish I could have gone to the second choreo today, but no moneys.... My body is sore, I lost three pounds, and I am going to memorize the rest of the choreography asap. Thanks to Helenwheels for letting me go! And thanks to Mardi for the amazing lessons, workout, choreo., and pics!
