I started a belly dancing class.

Just in case anyone gets confused by my pic, I am a girl. I started this class and already I know I wil be having a lot of fun. I need one thing to complete this and it is "hip scarf". Where in the twin cities can I get one.  Thanks in advance. Also I was wondering when the next coffee meeting for the woodbury and stillwater area would be. I have never attended one but I would love to.

Because I was not sure what a "hip scarf" was, I went to Google and here's a link for anyone else who may be wondering. http://bellydancercostume.info/products.php?cat=7&gclid=CNiC pdST9JICFQm6PAodOBXf0w Wow - very pretty! Congrats on taking this class! Where in the Twin Cities? Hmmmm...maybe the global market? http://www.midtownglobalmarket.org/ or http://www.saracura-dinkytown.blogspot.com/ Good luck & post a picture to inspire others who may be interested in this type of dance!

Okay I will check out global market.

That's where my sister got hers.

That sounds fun! I don't know if I'd be able to do it at my weight ! 

I don't see why you can't try it. From what I understand many belly dancers are on the heavier side. I really love it, I was afraid to try but glad I did.

I have done some belly dancing, but not a whole lot since it was when I was about 85 pounds heavier.  I think it is great that you are going out and taking a fun class, it is a good workout for your mid-section as well!  Sorry I can't help with where to buy the hip scarf I always borrowed a friends. Good luck and keep on shimmin' those hips!

It is alot of fun, I think I will try the global market this weekend. Thanks for the words of encouragment.
