Show Belly Dancing r-c r A Art rt SF 1 Ii t r t t. t 4 F Form orm ii Or Seduction N NIt It was interesting seeing the belly beIly dancing demonstration getting set up in the Copper Room the other day I thought about the good old days when I was young and had measurements that were not all the same Belly dancing would be an interesting form of exercise I had told myself so I bought a lovely black costume from a friend of mine It was padded so that the costumes costume's occupant could appear to be better endowed than reality dictated I Ir r purchased the finger cymbals and a record to dance to I am double jointed so Ive I've always been able to move and with a few self taught moves from an instruction manual I started to practice There were quite a few problems with practice however I was newly wedded and somehow never never could finish more than a few measures before an interruption My plans backfired Instead of belly beIly dancing helping me keep my shape it caused me to lose it totally I found out later that the costume had come with a curse The original designer had ma made macle Ie it and then became pregnant so she sold it to my friend who r was pregnant at the time I bought it I on the other hand was far more dense than my predecessors and it took two pregnancies before I got my head together and sold it I would love to be able to critique beIl belly dancin dancing as an art form but I dont don't dontY Y believe Ive I've ever seen a dance done to its completion LOVE MOM f p 2 Patty Murphy f P PS S Maybe Karate would be a better exercise and probably safer |
