Belly Dancing Blond

The Billion Belly March in Seattle, Washington takes place next month and I want to be there! It's a world famous event that showcases woman of all ages belly dancing their way up and down the streets of the Emerald city. The pagan ritual is rich in creativity, ingenuity and the preservation of freedom so chances are there may be a few nude bicyclists streaking along the way. To get prepared for my possible trip my dear friend Denise invited me to take belly dancing classes with her in Troy this month. Perfect - a genius way to get my midriff in shape and prep for the event.

Belly dancing conjures up images of veiled women writhing seductively in some exotic harem. Women who easily accentuate their feminine beauty with their eyes, nose, face and of course, their richly costumed breasts. The tricks they turn with their bellies is mesmerizing and I'm hoping I can learn the 'art of seduction' in 6 weeks. Better yet, I'm hoping I can wear provocative tassels, beads and sequins and both feel and look comfortable. There's a lot to consider before committing myself to this kind of dance.
