A new day has dawned.  Pigs might be flying.  Hell is possibly an icy tundra wasteland. Something I never anticipated has happened:  I’ve gone over to the fabulously unfamiliar world of social networking… and I’ve gotta say, so far so good.

For some reason, I’ve dug my heels in for way too long against the ideas of tweeting, tumbling, youtubing or publishing online.  I suppose I just couldn’t imagine why someone would be interested in the musings of a semi-known (let’s be honest, little-known) belly dancer.  Then I realized, dear reader, you don’t have to be interested - at least not right off the bat.  But I imagine you will be… soon enough.  

My intention & hope with this blog is to get the word out regarding all things belly dance; opening glimpses into the past, discussing present trends & exploring the future for this revered and timeless art form, all the while paying respect to the Middle Eastern cultures from which belly dance comes.  

So thanks!  If you’ve already read this far… then it’s not thaaat far of a stretch to ask you to keep reading…
