Hi,

I bellydance, American Tribal Style (ATS). Does anyone else here Bellydance? What style do you do? How do you think it affects your body image? How do you like it as an exercise? I have been dancing for 3 years and absolutely love it. Great core workout. Plus, ATS encourages collaboration between groups of women. Empowering! And beautiful!!

    I don't any longer, but I did for years. Tap was first, jazz, Hawaiian, bellydancing. But after several orthopedic surgeries, 2 hip replacements...I don't any more. I was a member of the sultana Dancers in Grand Rapids, Mi. Attended lots of seminars, performed all over. Yes..good workout. I miss dancing. But my teacher no longer teaches and I'm kind of "out of the groove." Don't really want to invest the money (costumes are very expensive) on seminars and travel. Do you travel around with your dancing?
    Enjoy it, it's great exercise, and performing can be wonderful! Good Luck!
