Reason to dance #4: Because dance isn't just for young people.

100 Reasons to Dance

I decided to write about my dance project here:
http://hubpages.com/hub/100-Reasons-to-Dance

I love that there are so many dance videos on Youtube. Any kind of dance you can imagine is over there. So if you need inspiration it's only a click away. But make sure you don't get too sucked in. You still need to get out there and dance today or tonight.

Reasons to Dance #2

I started a new set on Flickr called 'Reasons to Dance'. Instead of focusing on reasons NOT to dance, I'm focusing on reasons to dance. Right now my feet hurt from dancing. But that's a good sign. It means my body has noticed I'm doing something new.
Reason #2 To get rid of the knots I got from sitting in front of the computer all day.

Reason to Dance #1 To Celebrate World Belly Dance Day

I didn't get to go to the festival to celebrate because of family commitments, but I at least took out my dancing cane to add my energy to WBDD.

Burlesque Night

I love all kinds of dance so I wasn't going to miss an opportunity to go to a burlesque show in Fullerton, CA last night. I took some photos and I'll put some of the milder ones here. I do love the costumes. I wish the music had been more appealing. No flash photography was allowed but I think the blurs add to the feel of it anyway. I think the name of the group was Shimmy and Shake but don't quote me on that. It was late and my head was in a fog.

Torso and Hips

Today I focused on hip circles and rib cage slides. I'm hoping to trim and firm the area between my torso and my knees. Hopefully it will help with some lower back pain I'm having as well. This chilly weather makes me achy. If I let it get too cold in the apartment my teeth and joints start to ache. It rained a lot today so I stayed indoors. My boyfriend to walk to his truck a block over and he said he was soaked to the waist by the time he reached his truck. Nothing like getting to work on a Monday all soggy.
