I'm really struggling with my hair and make-up for the Georgetown show next Saturday.  I hope I can get it all together.  We'll be doing Fiesta, Justin, Mummers (if the breeze allows), King Tut :), a shimmy contest, and a variety of solos, duets, and trios.

We also have an upcoming performance at the Clermont Senior Center.  They are having a dance day with  dancers from different genres performing.  How cool is that?!!

I'm looking forward to some exciting events coming this summer!  We're hoping to attend the monthly hafla at Newport on the Levee in June.  In July, we will be dancing at a summer gala on the square in Georgetown, Ohio.  We're also looking forward to taking some workshops at the Cincinnati Bellydance Convention in August and attend a show.

Lots to look forward to!

YIKES! I'm excited! I'm in a drum solo choreo frenzy! Yes, yes, it is finally coming together.

Hope to see you all on January 10. Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! 2011 Coming This Way!

I'm looking forward to showing off our new costumes and new dances this year. I really want to expand our performance schedule and attend some haflas and shows. Right now, I'm playing around with a combination veil/sword choreograph to the song The Lantern.

Hope to see everyone back on Monday, January 10!

Cane Dance!

We're going to finish it! Then on to a drum solo and polish, polish, polish.

A Brand New Year

Hi Everyone,

I'm very excited about getting back to dancing after our holiday break. We have a lot of work ahead of us....finish cane dance, finish our veil dance, polish the two choreos we just finished, and begin working on a drum solo! I also want to continue to polish our improv skills.

I hope everyone is rested, healed, and ready to shimmy! We really need to get into performance groove again......maybe some new costuming as well :)

Can't wait to see you all on January 11!

Performance at the Veterans' Home

Wonderful job, ladies!  The performance went very well though we sorely missed Chava and Mary.  It's just not the same when some of us are missing :(

We will continue to hone our improvisational skills over the next few weeks.  Please remember to bring your dance notebooks to class for notes and homework assignments.  I look forward to seeing everyone back together very soon.

shimmy on,

Rassi
