Hi there!
I had my very first beginners' class last week. What an eye-opener- I never realised I was so unfit! I found muscles I didn't know I had!
I'm 30, married, with beautiful 1 year old twin boys. I decided a while back I needed to do something exercise-wise, and thought of belly dancing- it's one form of dance where being a stick figure isn't considered an advantage! It was great to see ladies of all shapes an sizes having a go.
I missed the first class of the term because of a migraine, so I was a bit behind the eight ball. I found out afterwards (to my relief!) that our class is a mixture of newbies and girls who have already done a term :o That made me a bit less embarrassed at being so uncoordinated!
Anyway, I wanted to say hello. I hope to be able to glean some pearls of wisdom from these boards!
Happy shimmying!
