Alright, I am the first to discuss belly dancing, or is just how I put it in my interests? Oh, well bound to be someone else that did the same way as me. ^__^ Anyways, I love to belly dancing... it's a great work out for women. It works everything the men don't have to worry about! I take classes myself and it's really fun, it relieves alot of stress too. I always feel great afterwards. I really recommend that you try it out.

I firmly agree with you all, i love belly dancing... i feel better each time to i do it and i lost some pounds in two months and i'm never stopping. i only do it 2-3 times a week and it really works for me. I believe wealth of health benefits awaits those who practice Belly dancing!!! Good luck to us all.

I love belly dancing too but I guess you'd know that lol. I have taken classes with you in the past and I love to practice with you too! I would have to agree that I feel great afterwords too and it does relieve LOTS of stress. I can't wait untill I am able to start taking classes again! Nashwa is an awesome instructor and I'd rather learn from her then anyone else. But the thing I like most about bellydancing is it's origional meaning, and the reason it came about. Which for those of you who do not know it was done when the women would take food to the alters. They would dance to relieve that time of the month pains,and to ease child birth.

Good I'm glad, I do too. I was going through and reading what some people had to say others and they were like "Fat people shouldn't do it, it wouldn't be sexy" Oy...if you wanna go into all that little chick a dees research it a bit more. I like doing Belly dancing for it's origional meaning and how it makes me feel while I'm doing it and after I'm done.

Indeed there is alot of information about belly dancing that makes it worth while. and for those who think that Belly dancing is just to be sexy and that its for only skinny women.... IT HAS MEANING AND ITS FOR ANY WOMAN... ANY SIZE.... AND EVEN MEN CAN DO IT TOO. lol Ok I feel better.

Yea, only reason I am able to is because My teacher is at my college. You should look her up: She actually has a very interesting background, she's done many opening acts for top Arabic artists... Her name is Nashwa Cahill

I will. Maybe they have it at one of the local colleges around here. It's worth a try to look, that's for sure.

I have wanted to try it out for years. I think they have classes somewhere near my house and my friend said she might take some classes with me in the fall.

Yea I definitly strongly advise it! It is so fun, especially when your teacher has the personality to go with it! Otherwise, it wouldn't be that fun. =) Good luck!
