I feel I need to introduce myself here again because I've been away for about 2 years now :S. I had a falling out of love with dance and needed a long hiatus to kind of find myself again. To find the style of dance I want to do. And well just to rekindle the dance spark. Finally can say that I...
OK staring off I am 5 foot 2 inches tall and have a very tiny (as in not long) torso. I bought a set of heavier silk semi-circle double veils cause I wanted to start teaching myself double veil. However I discovered that they are just too big for me (I can't return them either) :( They are 100...
Does anyone know where I can find and buy the absolutely tiny, tiny stones and gold circles that I see in bindi's on various websites? I can't seem to find them anywhere and all I can find it the 5ss crystal sizes.
I am hoping this wonderful community can help me on this one. The volunteer fire department my sisters husbands works with has entered a photo contest from a local insurance company to win a prize of $2,500 if they get the most likes on their photo. They are going to use this money to purchase...
I was wondering if there might be a instructional video out anywhere that teaches double veil?? I just recently purchased two beautiful half circle heavy sik veils but I don't have anyone local who can teach me how to work with double veils.
So 3 weeks ago I applied to get into a heavyweight training program called Strong Her 42. It is a 42 day long intensive stregth building and metabolic cardio based program. I also got the $200 discount so the program will only cost me $299. I am very excited to be accepted into this program and...

This is my first dance that I choreographed with another person. Over a total of 9 hours spread over 2 weeks Caitlyn and I choreographed this. Then due to my travel and our time schedules we only had about 3 hours of total...
Hi guys
In another week I will be in montreal quebec for a week long conference. I want to knwo if there is a store in that city that you can buy bellydance costuming and gear from? I have been looking online and so far have come up empty.
I have a dance that I am going to have berber/turkish (depends on who you talk to what they call it) walking in. Now I can do it, but I'm wondering if anyone here has experience teaching it to other people? I will have to teach it to my troupe members but I want to make sure I teach it correctly...
Hello fellow forum Members
Though I don't know all of you nor have met you in person you feel like my extended family. I wanted to let you all know that I am starting to fundraise to raise at least $1000 (can) so I can participate in Bust A Move St. John's, Newfoundland on March 23, 2013. This...
Hi Guys,
I'm at work now and can't post a picture yet but I received some tea from a friend and in the mixed box there were a few tea bags that almost look like they are medicine of some sort. From the way some things are written it makes me suspect medication.
I think it might be in German (I...
Our troupe is going to be in the santa clause parade this year and I am doing up the music. I would like to include some dance music that has a little more of a christmas/seasonal feel to it with our more traditional music.
Does anyone have any ideas, suggestions on music that can fit this?
Hi Guys
I thought someone has posted about this earlier but I can't find it. I would like to make myself a par of mini-wings but using veils.
I've seen them in videos before and it looks like they used two half circle veils and attached one end to a bracelet on the arm and the other to the...
Finally I was able to do a solo under my troupes name! Put this together in 2 weeks and I'm pretty happy the way it looks being that I didn't end up having much time to drill it to perfection. The room is an art room so the lighting is horrible for dance!!! It is designed to light up art on the...
Is it just my university campus computer or is everyone's forum loading slowly? Normally it loads very quickly for me here but right now it is pretty slow.
These are some video clips from our performance at this years Dance on the Edge IV.
I am the person doing the sword part for this. First time using a sword and no I did not wear a hair wrap to help balance the sword on my head. My sword slipped off my knee but I think I made a good recovery...
This topic had me pondering about it for a while because of my own personal experience, but it was something that was posted on a friends wall today that got me to open the chat about it.
1. How do you dancers deal with fans who show up at every performance and "have!!" to talk to you after...
