Belly dance Quiz... for NON bellydancers

[dancingleaf]

Want to be a guinea pig for my "Test your bellydance knowledge" Quiz I've been playing with this morning?

I want this to be have some easy questions for the NON bellydancers in the audience with a few harder questions for my students... along with maybe some informative data just for fun.

I have it done in Word format so if you'd prefer that I email it to you  ... comment with your email address -(It looks much NEATER and easier to read in the actual format... )
