Belly Dancing

Well, last week was my first belly dancing lesson. I knew i would be pretty bad at it when I signed up, but decided that i didn't care how dumb i looked.
Sure enough, I did pretty bad. But, I enjoyed the class very much and have been practicing all week. I hope to do better tonight.
The moves are very different than anythign I've ever done, and you use muscles you never thought you had. There's a lot of hip movement and you have to walk funny. Really funny! It took 3 days of practice before I was finally able to do it right, and I still am not sure if I even got it! I will certainly find out tongiht, as my teacher is more than willing to point out all the mistakes I make. I don't mid because I know that I will never learn with out the hands on direct approach she has.
I will post an update after another lesson or two!
