Cool stuff Alison! Good luck with it on Saturday and make sure we get pics. :2thumbs:
Of course of course a horse. :2thumbs: Thank you!

Dancing Goddesses!
I always thought that belly dancing was very interesting and very sexy. Looks like a good time. :2thumbs:
Now I know your full name I can stalk you. Luckily I am too lazy to stalk anyone so you are safe from me. Quick search and I found your employer and some other useless stuff. Call me paranoid.
that is cool that you were in the paper though. I was never cool enough to be in the paper. Props :2thumbs: :five:
Hmmmm.........thanks for bringing that up. Not too worried. I'm a tough chic and can kick your ass so don't stalk me. And I work with a bunch of mean people that inject botox all day long and operate lasers so show up at my work and it could get nasty. :lol8:Quote:

Cool. Where was the bogley shirt? :lol8:
COOL Alison! What a neat way to create some vibrant energy to "utilize" & "share" with other people. I like the way your class focuses on women of all ages, celebrating the natural sensuousness of "our" kind, without limiting the meaning of "beauty" to some silly ad mans toy.Quote:

Way to go. :five:
Dancing is like art in motion!
I'd love to see a video too!
Very cool Alison! They did a nice piece on your group :2thumbs:
...and yes, more pics! :popcorn:
Your wish is granted......you will get more! But not till after tomorrow night. :2thumbs: Thank you! I thought the article totally expressed exactly how I FEEL about my class. I dance with some amazing women. :2thumbs: :five:Quote:

We take an ancient dance and turn it into something sexual? Yea. So anyhow.....I highly recommend taking a similar class.......it feels OH SO GOOD! :2thumbs: :haha: Thank you for the kudos! :mrgreen:
Alison that is freakin' fantastic lady!! You have to post video. You better or I will come kick your ass. :lol8:
So Jaxx
Pop quiz... What is the most poisonous natural substance known to man?
The botulinum toxin. So sweety if I were you I wouldn't mess with Alison, she has access to that stuff. :haha:
Very nice! I always knew you would be famous. Belly dancing is supa sexy yo.
:2thumbs:
Yes and famous for a day! Let me tell ya. It was great to walk into Great Clips to get my sons hair cut and someone say OH YOU ARE THAT GIRL FROM THE PAPER TODAY. HAHAHA!!!!!!! Thanks for the kudos. I had a fabulous performance last night and wished it didn't go so quick! 3 minutes and it's done. :2thumbs: :lol8:Quote:

Ok so I have a video but it turned out soooooo crappy b/c the lighting wasn't the greatest. I am working in tweaking it. Just trying to find the right software program for this. And of course, b/c my hubby was too busy getting video, he couldn't help my son work the camera. Thinking we should have gotten more photos instead??? Video is coming, promise because our dance was high energy and the audience LOVED IT! Instead of a video for now I will re-cap with a few photos of my costume, fire dancers, post show photos and some crappy clips I did get from the dance itself. ENJOY! It's great to be able to share with you guys what I love to do in my spare time when I am not outdoors. DANCE! (and yes my instructor is 8 months prego) :2thumbs: :nod:

Cool updates! My aunt used to belly dance before she got a boob job and became to "top heavy". She had these cool little finger cymbals she would chime together. You guys use those?
Very nice! Look forward to seeing the video.
:popcorn:
Right on Girl Power!! Did everyone wear the headscarfs so the flames wouldn't ignite their hair?
Thank you thank you! It was SUCHHHHHHHHHHHHH an awesome night. And yes they did wear scarves so their hair wouldn't catch on fire. One ladies DID though and some guy came out of the audience to smack her head. Was kinda funny actually. :lol8:Quote:
