belly dance again

i have been practicing weekly, at least a little bit. it is a little discouraging because i used to go to two hour classes, and now 15 minutes of practice can tire me out. i already feel i am improving a little, though. i want to work on a new costume as an inspiration.

still haven’t been to class, but i’ve been getting a lot of practice at festivals recently. it reminds me how much i really loved dancing when i did it regularly. well, i still love it, only less frequently now.

i didn’t go to class, but i went to a belly dance show/party. learned i can still dance well enough for myself at least, if i’m in the right mood. slightly inspired to continue, and just in time for festival season when there will surely be plenty of opportunities.

i used to dance a lot, practice every day and go to a couple of classes every week. i even started performing. then my life got sort of disrupted and i haven’t danced in several years.

now i’d like to start again, but classes are expensive and also, i feel frustrated that i’d have to go back to easier classes than the ones i used to take. actually it’s frustrating that there aren’t really any advanced classes around my area at all, unless you want to pay for private lessons.

but at the very least i should start practicing again, and going to free and cheap dance events…
