Belly Dancing... back from the dead!
Ages ago (January, it turns out), I posted about going for bellydancing classes, and some others were interested in that, too. elise and I went along to the classes at the Synergy Centre for a bit, but then I had to stop going because the day got changed and I couldn't make it. I'd sort of vaguely meant to go along to Pineapple instead, and last night, I finally did, once again accompanied by elise.
The class, which is taught by Asmahan, is very different from the Synergy one - much more emphasis on technique, and explanations of how and why moves work. There was quite a lot to take in, but fortunately you're not expected to get all of it straight away, you're encouraged to go a few times and learn a bit more each time. There are also intermediate and advanced classes. We both liked it, and want to go back.
So, any other takers?

My preference is for a Tuesday, but I can make Mondays most weeks (probably); I'd be happy to alternate. Elise I think said Mondays were the only day at present, but Tuesdays might be possible in future.
