Single and double veils, and zills (although I'm not very good at them). My teacher is also rather good at sword and cane, so I'm looking forward to picking them up, too.

Oh, c'mon, Gia, don't be chicken!

I like my veil. I hate to dance with zils. I didn't use to like the cane dances, but find myself intrigued by them now. Once upon a time, I saw someone do a very stately dance, her only accompaniment being the sound she made by tapping her ring against a brass candle holder lit with a single candle.

In my dance journey - zills, veil, sword, cane, shemadan, and goblets. But what I currently use are zills, never go anywhere without em, my goblets and a silk veil.

I dance with the cane, zills, and shamadan. I've danced with other props in the past, but those are my favs.
