Belly Dance Bits n Bobs

I remember to this day back in 2004 walking into a class and wondering what an earth had I done. The room was full of excitement and nerves, with women of all ages present for week 1 of 10, learning as part of an adult education evening class. I came home and cried because I felt useless. I had danced ballroom, latin, line-dancing, disco and more over decades so was frustrated in myself more than anything else. I had loved the teacher and her warm friendly manner, it was just me that was the issue. Paying up front from 10 weeks at least I had to go back and by week 3, I was hooked! I did what any self respecting woman learning to belly dance and proceeded to spend a small fortune on costumes, props, jewellery and more before it dawned on me that I had gone overboard. So when I was listening to my pupils wonder about costumes, I thought it could be beneficial to set this page up and provide links (affiliated in some cases) to help navigate the things that help you with your way of the belly!
