Wow, did we have a blast last weekend! First we had a little hafla on Friday night (OK, I was late but I still caught some good stuff).
Improv drumming with Gaia, Lauren Boldt, Natasha, Kelly and Amanda
On Saturday morning we did body conditioning for bellydancers with Lauren Boldt – it was hard, but fun!
Then Shimmy Mob at the Grand Cities Mall!
Then after lunch back to work as we practiced drumming and dancing during the “Insane in the Membrane” workshop. I pooped out after a while because I was not feeling well. But the rest of the class were real troopers.
Drumming and Dancing!
And finally in the evening we performed at the UND Burtness Theatre – so many super talented ladies!
Kismet!
And after we all went out to eat I collapsed because my head cold finally got to me. But, as quick as the weekend went it was a great time! Special thanks to Lauren Boldt, who is a fabulous dancer and teacher, and just a delightful person; Natasha and the Lovely Dozen for hosting and doing most of the heavy lifting (especially Natasha for her Shimmy Mob organizational help!); my Kismet ladies who get me through each week; and everyone who participated in the show and contributed to CVIC. Love you all!
