There's City Dance Corps on King St. W. that has some BD classes, and a belly dancing school on Danforth 1 block west of Pape.

- I know that there is this really good school in Thornhill, a little out of the way, but you may want to check into it. Not sure how much you're wanting to pay.

if you knew anything about the artform you would know that is tribal fusionbellydancing...emphasizing on the bellydancing.

dude. she can belly dance AND balance shit on her head.
that chick was hardly moving nor was she graceful.

technically bellydancing was meant to help a pregnant woman give birth. wait let me wikipedia this shit.

thankyou, my teacher won various awards and competitions and never once mentioned anything about a bellydancer balancing a book or candlestick on her head while she dances.

It's aboutlearning to control your body and expressing the music through it....not how well you can balance a book on your head

Yes women used this during pregnancy to help alleviate pains and make childbirth easier...by learning to control certain muscles in your body.

no shit. well sweetheart you are wasting your money on your stupid belly dancing classes. that's not my point. My point is that woman HAS NO GRACE. I was trying to explain the point that other women who can balance heavy things on their head ANNNNNDDDDD belly dance do a better job than her.

Posted by Frenchie on Dec-01-2006 04:36:

I think it's fascinating. The way the body move in perfect, "S" shapes is amazing. Can't wait to one day see you do it Kelly.

wasting my money? have you ever seen me dance? just because i found something to be interesting doesn't mean i dance likt that. I don't see you moving your body in the ways she does and expressing an instrument through movements in her body like she does.

There's different types of bellydancing, and this is just one of the many. This dance has evolved over thousands of years so noone has the right to say "what is bellydancing".
