I heard about this today for the first time ever. The idea is to belly dance for at least 5 minutes a day, for 90 days consecutively. Anyone else doing this or heard about it?

    I have done a couple of 30 days belly dance challenges on Facebook, but had not seen a 90 day one before. I would certainly be up for it.

    I guess it depends if you want a specific date to finish by, or if you just want to get started on it.

    If we just want to get started, how about next Monday 14 July? That way we would be finishing on 11 October.

    I don't know how people do challenge groups and stuff - maybe we should just post in this topic, or start a new one when we begin. We could tell each other what we had danced to music-wise, and maybe a bit about what we did i.e. shimmied like a crazy woman for 2 minutes, did some sloow slinky moves with the arms for 30 seconds, then hit the fast moves again for the rest of the track... Pics optional.

    " I love this plan. I'm excited to be a part of it. Let's do it" oops wrong group for the geeky type post. Oh well too late. I think i'm more likely to follow through with this if I have someone to yell at me (yep that's permission) for I don't post enough. an idea for tracking might be create a google doc or a group calendar that is shareable to all in this group and we get to mark off what we did. I don't know I'm making this up. We could also create a facebook group for this challenge as well.

    ETA here is where I believe this idea stemmed from (good blog as well)

    Does it have to be belly dance specifically? I'm more of a fusion dancer, so my style includes elements of all my training, not just belly dance. Belly dance has heavy influence because it feels like a natural default flow, but I'm very far from purist.

    I think I'm in if this can include all dance practice.

    Also, do zils count? <_< Drum circle on Sundays. Drills with zils.
