(greetings young ones) How are you all doing? It`s been ages but I managed to get myself away from underneath that depressing rock I`ve been living under and I am back to haunt you;) For my injury, still not the old one, but well on my way. My bd activities now are concentrated around...

This has nothing to do with bd but it got me totally pissed off and in a big discussion with my brother in law. Now I do know I am a bit over sensitive on this subject, so I was wondering how you interpret this? For me, the bit about self defence is ok, the rest puts responsibility on women...

First, hello everyone, long time no see! I hope you are all ok! For me, not so much. I`ve had an accident at work 4 months ago in which I injured my right hip and since then I haven`t been able to do much. I am able to walk, but with great pain and short distances. I am not able to work or even...

So, finally I`m gonna pop the question...I`m curious, what do you know about it, where did you get your info, do you have an opinion about it and what opinion does the gp in your country seem to have ? Before we start, I know this is a touchy subject, so I would like to ask everybody to keep it...

during a performance! My very first solo-fly(aka, it had nothing to do with my class) and workshop bellydancing with the greatest audience/participants ever! It was in a combined home for people with mental handicaps and old folks from the former colonies. The old folks found it fun but the...

*warning: possible whining/ranting ahead* Two former bd class mates contacted a couple of our troupe for a performance. A couple of us went to check out what it was. Ok, it was obvious it was more of a play, the 'teacher'was not a bellydancer and half of all the girls participating never did...

A little sister of the instructor annoyances tread. Could be towards other students or towards teachers. - I` ll repeat the student who makes appointments to practice but doesn`t show up. - have a class that starts at time X but consequently starts about 20 minutes later. - I`ve never came...

Just wondering which experiences you have with partners and their response to you dancing. Also, has their attitude towards the dance changed over the years? And then, how do you respond to their response? My boyfriend sees how much joy it brings me, so he is actually sometimes the one to...

So, at one point in your bd carriere you look at your wardrobe and come to the conclusion that x-part of it consist of bd- clothing or is at least convertable to the cause. But what are the items any serious bellydancer should have or at least desires? My thoughts so far: - a two piece/ bedleh...

How many times have you come across such a situation, where politics seem to interfer with the dance or the dancers? Either in your personal life or in general. Or is the main experience dance overcomes those differences in politics? A good friend of mine once got rejected on a event for her...

I consider myself at most as a dedicated student. I love this dance, I have a great time and I want as much info as possible. But I still don`t get the new moves right away(I have to practice them at home or my body refuses), I am no good at sharp moves and most importantly, I just don`t...

Please, pretty please, does somebody has got a link to the full song? I could not find it on youtube, only a remix:( I...need...to....practice....now!!!

Any of you have any advice? I have little to none experience in programming so putting it together myself will not be an option. I saw some online programms where you could use their space and make your shop with that, with the basic options for free. Any of you have any experience with those...

Well, doh, she`s me:mad:! Found a clip on youtube this morning of our practice sessions before a big show. Put there without permission, with everybodys face clear and obvious! Well, I am angry as hell so I`m afraid I`ll rant, so I`ll keep it short. I got the lady to put the vid on private...

By Dawn Devine Brown. Searching for a not too expensive copy/seller. A long shot but hey, I could try...:pray:

is another woman. Whats your opinion on this statement? I believe it has a lot of truth in it and find it such a shame. We already have enough to deal with, why make it more difficult for eachother? I`m thinking of those who gossip, steal men, steal gigs etc. I heard two stories last night of...

Would you like to share some ideas on how to put together a summer event that is targeted at the main public.(aimed to raise some money and do some advertising) Besides being able to take some workshops and look at some shows etc, how to make an bd-oriented event without it costing too much? I...

Besides the obvious'look their is a beaver'splits, are their other things to avoid? I guess a very lucious, lots of fabric-y skirt would do best? Are their other things to think about with your costume if you are doing floorwork? It should be a light and natural dance, so a costume that matches...

I am so happy and a bit proud!!! My teacher asked my to do a solo at an montly event of hers. Like a hafla but no hafla!(sorry, saw too many balinese films yesterday, catchphrase overthere) We did an impro in class some time ago, if I wanted to do that one on stage. Uh, uh, uhm.....yes, but not...

I saw this add on a dutch facebook like site, searching for average level bd who where willing to go on a rockstage. The demands where being good in impro and being able to put down a choreo(I know, their are a lot of questions to be raised on this whole thing anyway) Now, I myself don`t...
