Has anyone bought from Shop Like an Egyptian...I get a bad feeling I may be about to run into some trouble with them...

So I

So I just needed to gripe a bit...I'm part of this one class where a group of us have been together for a while...a while back everyone decided they wanted to start a second class...of course I wanted to go back to my very first teacher (the only reason I had quit her was because of my schedule)...

I have some Oum Kalthoum instrumental music but I've decided I would like to buy one of her lyrical albums...as you all know there at quite a good many of them...anyone have any suggestions for a good first one?

I know that when a song has lyrics it is important to know what the lyrics are about so as to display the correct emotions...but what about songs that originally had lyrics but are made into just instrumental pieces...can you just go by the music or should you find out about the lyrics that went...

My very first classes in Bellydance was with an Egyptian style teacher but because of schedule I switched to teachers that are American Oriental...I've been with these teachers now for a year and have made great friends there. For much of the time I did not concern myself with what style I...

Well even prior to me becoming obsessed with Bellydance I had been planning a trip to Egypt this year. Now with that I am into the dance it changes things a little bit. I had planned on doing a Geckos tour but now I'm not sure. I could perhaps do the tour and then stay a couple of extra days...

My class is having a hafla, it is a small class of around 15 but there may be a few extras. We were not able to finish making arrangements before class ended so now we are asked to email what we will bring. I'm curious what type of food should I bring? Just normal food or something more...

One thing I would like for my teacher to mention more of the dance goings on in the community...I just noticed on the website that I missed a performance at my own college where the troupe performed...I think some of them perform at a local restaurant but they have never mentioned it in...

Well the workshop I mentioned before, (Aziza of Montreal) I decided not to attend but there is supposed to be a recital/performance the first day in the evening that I will attend. Do they usually allow camaras?

How long had you been dancing when you attended your first workshop? What was the topic? I'm just wondering when I should start. I'm wondering if anything that isn't labeled for beginners would be for more experienced dancers?
