Hello my name is Rebecca but I like the name Darkwinter or DW. I am new to bellydancing (for about a year and a half now) and i really enjoy it. I am a plus size woman in the city of Detroit. I am a wife to 1 and a mother to 8. I have recently gotten my daughters who are 11, 9, and 6 to take classes. They love it to. I perform sometimes but get butterflies in my tummy when I do but I really really enjoy the art form. I know i have lots more to work on but I am excited about dancing. i do wish to lose the wieght and I am currently working on it. This is my 2 cents.

A warm to you, it's great your daughters are learning as well. I so wish I had, had the opportunity to learn when young, but better late than never:D

I too am working on a few extra kilo's as a lot of woman are, and getting there, but I am impatient and want them gone yesterday:lol: and have to lecture myself on the virtue of patience;)

As for butterflies before performing, I am sure most of us experience that at some stage, (it does get better over time) and once the music starts and you step out there they settle down quite a bit I'm sure:D

Ev entual ly the butterflies go away and you will dance with so much freedom and confidance! And good luck dancing and with your weight loss journey! I too am on the same train! :D Belly dance is a great and fun way to help you reach your goal!
