Oooooh, oooooooh, oooooooh, in a couple more days I fly off to Hawaii for a week long belly dance retreat with 2 amazing dancers, one of whom is Zoe Jakes from Beats Antique. (If you don't know who she is, look her up on youtube). It's going to be awesome

Zoe!?!?!? Soooooo jealous!! Beats Antique rocks my world, hard.

[aesiria]

Yes, it will be super awesome. But also Zoe has been a professional bellydancer for like 8 years or so & is a complete badass, which makes it hard for people with full time desk jobs to keep up!

I took a class with her 1 yr ago that involved 1.5 hrs of her signature conditioning & drills, and I could barely make it through. 3 months ago, I took a 3 hr conditioning class & barely made it through. Now, I will take 5 days of 7 hrs a day, and I expect to barely make it through.

However, that's some damn fine progress!

Indeed! keep rockin' it! Silona mentioned taking a class from you; is this a regular thing, do you have a schedule etc? If I get this job I'm angling for, my schedule may become unrealistic, but it's good to dream!

[aesiria]

Yes, sort of regular but right now no classes until after the holidays, and then I'll have to figure some things out. I'll let you know!

Nice! Which island are you going to? We spent a couple of weeks on Kauai and got to know it fairly well.

I'll be on the big island. Really just one day for sightseeing, but I fully intend to go back with Zonk & see more stuff.
