I totaly love belly dancing ^_^ /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I love dancing actually.. and growing up watching old movies with belly dancers it was only natural that I'd practice! hehehe.. and being Middle Easter (and from the Gulf to be exact) my dad used to freak out but he knew how much I loved dancing and music so he didn't mind much, as long as I only danced at home! looooool

best thing if you want to be good at it, practice practice and practice.. the first thing you want to reach is having a relaxed waist (so you could sway all you want)... and also you should master how you stand to do certain moves.. I don't like the teaching DVDs out there in the market because its not done by REAL belly dancers.. if you want to learn, try to find old Egyptian movies or the tapes of Egyptian dancers! and just follow..

a while ago I got a training DVD (belly dancing) and threw it out :| the moves were so stiff and it was made to look like its some sort of workout rather than something to enjoy!

but i guess i'll have to d/l some stuff off the internet and look something up

I've done belly dancing once but haven't yet taken up lessons full time but I love it, it feels soo good and it's great exercise plus I love the way it tones you.
