My inner tormoil with belly dancing

[Amulya]

Plus, dancing keeps us young. It never ceases to amaze me just how much younger most dancers I know look, and how much healthier they are than other people their age. Sure, some of them have had the help of cosmetic surgery, but a lot of them haven't. It's inspiring.

It keeps people young, most dancers look much younger than they are. I have no idea how old Jillina is, but she looks very young.

When I get a bit older (I'm mid 50's now) I figure I'll get a job teaching belly dance at a senior center, look for dance gigs at retirement homes, etc. I may not be able to compete against the younger crowd but I can still carve my own niche out that might earn a bit of money but give me places to dance.

Yes a whole niche market, belly dance would be really healthy for senior people. I had students in their 70's and belly dance helped them keeping flexible and fit without being too much of a strain on their body's.
