challenge.

I'm working on a challenging choreography for my students.

It's a veil piece but I can't decide if  it might be better without the veils ... but that's not why it is challenging.

For the first time I am creating it for Row A to do something different from Row B and Left side to do something different than Right side.  I KNOW what I want to see.  I just don't know if I can effectively teach it AND on top of that... some of these girls have never worked with veil before.

Wish me luck.

since I've been looking for troupe costuming ideas I found this clip & I love it too much not to share!....

Please give me a performance slot

Dear -----

I have been offering belly dance classes in the town of Essex since 2006.  My students and I regularly perform at charity events including Essex District High School's Cultural Diversity Night, Relay for Life (Kingsville), and recently at a Breast Cancer Awareness function in Harrow.  I would like to expand our performance experience to include the Essex Fun Fest if possible.  We have both solo and group performances and can provide family friendly entertainment lasting between 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on your requirements what performance time slots are available.  We use recorded music, have modestly costumed performers, many of whom are Essex residents and would be happy to volunteer our services for this event this year.   Please feel free to contact me further to discuss availability and other details. 


.......uh.


anything else I should add?  I know they want to know when we can make it.  and what we charge if at all. but... in lieu of the fact that we haven't done this before...and I'm applying rather late (event is July 8-10)  I'm thinking...just send it ASAP  and...cross my fingers?
