Belly dancing during pregnancy
Did you see the fabulous guest post from Hayam about her experiences dancing through all three trimesters of her pregnancy? It's a wonderful essay that provides an honest look about the good and the bad of dancing during pregnancy. Click here to read the article.
"I Belly Dance Because"
Several months ago, we featured an interview from Terri Allred (Sadiya), a friend of mine, who was in the process of writing her first book, "I Belly Dance Because: The Transformative Power of Dance." The book is now ready and guess what? I'm in it! Plus there are some great stories from dancers from all walks of life. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry and it will make you want to buy one for all of your best dance buddies. Click here to buy it on Amazon.com.
