I've had a ton of beginners asking me about what videos to use if they can't get to a real teacher.

The Salon last night ROCKED! We had a beautifully liquid duet from Sophia and Diana, a hilariously sassy solo (with rockin' isolations!) from Stacy, and a stunning veil fan piece from Teuta. Deirdre and I premiered our revamped floor duet with backbends galore and an out-of-control creation (honest, not a metaphor for my artistic life...), and I learned that Kawaii no Cane is much more fun as a duet than a solo (the lovely Magdalena Voodoo was not available that evening, much to my chagrin), and that I should never wear fingerless gloves when doing cane work. The space (171 Ave C between 10th and 11th, 9:30 every 2nd Thursday of the month) turned out to be even better to work in than I expected, and the lighting bank I brought in really worked. We are always accepting video submissions for performers, so show us your stuff! We'll have video of the show to post as soon as possible, and I'm definitely looking forward to next month's show. Plan on being there.
This past weekend, the Voodoo Sisters went to Chicago to participate in Bellydance Underground's benefit show for Between Friends, an organization fighting domestic violence (www.betweenfriendschicago.org). Great cause, great show, great time!

We debuted Vampian Lespire Cats to a highly entertained audience, and had a great time doing it. We also spent the show backstage, listening raptly to the music, but unable to go out and watch the show because, well, our cover-up veils were under the MC's shirt. You'll understand when you see the video, which we shall post as soon as we get it. Many thanks to Rocio, who set this up, and the fine ladies of Chicago's belly dance world, as well as to Renee for putting us up, and George for letting us rip out his innards in public. In the meantime, I gotta link to Aziza's post on weirdness and belly dance, which encapsulates why the Voodoo Sisters do what we do: azizasaid.wordpress.com/2008/0...-weird/
