Playing with fire

Poi, covered with socks so they wont get hurt when I accidently
swing them into walls or my own legs...

I bought myself a pair of Poi yesterday ^^ I'm thinking of bringing fire into my belly dancing, and poi is a great way to start. Or, it might be "bringing belly dancing into my fire performance"... We'll see, when the time comes. First I need to practice! I've already gotten blisters on my middle knuckles from swinging them half the night...

Andreas showed me this video to look at and get some tips for beginners. Really helpfull video!

Great belly dancer coming my way!

Omg, Sadie is coming to Sweden this winter! She's such an awesome dancer, and I've always wanted to see her preform live. And best of all is that my belly dance-teacher is one of the people arranging the whole thing, so I'm guaranteed to be there ^^ Maybe I'll even build up the curage to preform something myself at the event... We'll see, first I have to live through the summer and really, really practice!

All you readers from Sweden should really come to the event. There will be workshops and lots of other preformers as well! I'll keep you posted when I know more.
