Hello!
Here's another dancer from Sweden
I danced about 2 years ago, unfortunately I quitted after they changed instructor since the new one wasn't teaching bellydance as i percieve it, it was more salsa/flamenco-style than classical bellydance and she teached everything opposite what I already learned (i learned a moore grounded dancing on my feet and heels and she taught us to be high up on our toes wich didnät work with my old knee injury.). So I quitted and was highly frustrated and unfortunately our economics we're low and my horse took to much time so there was no time for dancing until now.
starting at another dancing-school in september and will have 10 lessons this semester. And hopefully it will be great, I've missed BD and really looking forward to start again and get the basics in so I can dance more and more Some of my friends also dance but they live 5-6 hours drive with car from me so we're not able to dance together very often.
As i said i have a horse, and i see the BD as a great way to improve posture, balance, koordination and body-control and strengthen my lower abdomen and core as well as getting a more fluid connection with my horse while riding.
I'm also a seamstress by choice, and viking reenactor so i sew a lot of period garments. And a plan of mine is to make a BD-outfit that would be suitable to use at a high period-viking faire.
I live in an apartment with my soon to be hubby (I already call him hubby ) and we have 2 cats and one mix-bred dog.
I was thrilled to find this forum with all the knowledge, links and people and I'm happy I found this place!
A BIG hug to everyone who manage to read through my wall of text! And fell free to ask med anything. I'd like to get to know more BD-people via PM's and msn messenger etc as well.
take care everyone!
