Give it a go - but it isn't a veil workshop by any means Don't think of the milaya as a veil or you'll end up losing the essence. First thing you'l probably learn is how to wrap the milaya around your body. Then how to unwrap and wrap while dancing - not so much arm strength required as co-ordination. Attitude is important - you're strong , safe and within your own neighbourhood, so you can push the boundries. Age is not an issue.
Enjoy.
