kjpepperGod, it's always a bit of a struggle to get my carcass to belly dancing because it's scheduled so late now that the lazy almost wins sometimes. Of course it's always worth it afterwards - and usually helps with whatever lower body cramping/pain/digestive distress I'm experiencing. Even if it wakes up new hurty spots, like my solar plexus, which was subjected to pan, pitch AND yaw tonight, sometimes at the same time! Ouch, my boobs were never meant to work that hard.
Still it was a good class. We're doing a drum solo for the next MEAC show, which I'm finding quite yummy. Joanne also went into the different drum rhythms that we'd probably run into a lot, some of which (especially the chifetelli) I was already familiar with due to various middle eastern music immersion I've been doing since the summer.
speaking of which, I know there are at least four belly dancers on my friends list. If you all haven't checked out Radio Bastet yet, you should. It's a lady in oregon that actually seems to have more vintage belly dancing records that Sasha from Gypsy Heart (and THAT's hard to do!) who does a radio show with them once a month. A lot of the records are from the 60s, and boy with some of the tracks you can tell, but most of it's pretty quality stuff.
I should probably go to sleep. yeah...
