Why did I have the impression I posted on this thread...it seems I didn't, or did I but am just too blind to find my post. Lol whatever...if I repeat myself please excuse me!
I did take ballet classes aged 4-9 but I never got out of the preparatory class (meaning, I never did pointe). Now that I look back at this it was more like "classical dance" in general than really ballet and it was supposed to prepare the students for many different dance styles such as jazz, hiphop, ballet etc. I very briefly tried ballroom, but although I enjoy to watch this dance and dance it (if I have a good partner) I somehow didn't like the class. I began with oriental dance at 17, it's 4 years now, maybe a little more. I still do jazz classes but is only recreational and I do not intend to take it any further, but I admit that it did and does help me with BD, because it improves my body control.
(I REALLY have the impression I already wrote this...hmmm...or maybe wanted to post this, dunno...excuse me, this is just ONE BIG DEJA VU, lol)
I really really really would love to learn classical persian dance (iranian and central asian), but there is NO teacher around. In general, it is very hard to find one in France, not speaking at all about Slovakia (forget that).
I would like to try more stuff but I live in a small town and the possibilities are somewhat limited.
But of course, oriental dance is my true love!!!!!!!!!
