Hiya everyone.
I'm 24, from England and going to try my first belly dancing lesson next week (24th I think) I found this forum while doing a search on belly dancing and thought I'd come and have a look.
I'm really looking forward to my first lesson, but also a bit worried, as I'm *very* overweight, we're not talking a few pounds here. I mean a BMI of over 40 and my doctors telling me if I don't lose weight I'm going to be dead in a few years. I've always been interested in belly dancing and was told it's really good exercise so I thought I'd give it a go. I was just wondering if there's anyone else on here that is in, or has been in a similar situation to mine and could offer any advice or tips?
Thank you very much.
