Tribal Fusion Bellydance

In the past, I have toyed with learning bellydance techniques, but never got very far in my practice. (I can’t shoulder shimmy.) Later, I turned to ballet and started taking a few classes over three years or so, but then I hurt my foot. I still don’t know how I did it and neither did any of the doctors I went to see, but it hinders me from doing ballet as much as I used to. To make a long and boring story short, suffice it to say that I’ve let myself get terribly out of shape and I get rather disgusted when I see myself in the mirror.

I am also becoming somewhat of an insomniac. It’s nearly 6am here in Jeonju and I’m not even a little bit tired. I overslept every day this weekend and now I can’t sleep at all. Anyway, while I was whiling away the wee hours, I came across something mesmerising on YouTube, which is one of my favourite places to waste time. It was Rachel Brice and I am now in love with tribal fusion bellydance. She has inspired me to learn this particular type of dance. Hopefully the DVD will find its way safely through customs to me in the SK (South Korea). *fingers crossed*

Enjoy the vid. It’s the very one that inspired me.

I've Been Away

I’ve been away for some time. I do apologise for the vast amount of people who are hungrily reading my blog. (sarcasm intended.) I moved to South Korea to teach English and have finally become accustomed enough to my surroundings to begin blogging again. Pictures, stories, and thoughts on life are soon to ensue.
