Happy 2011! We will be getting 2011 off to a bang with the new beginners and continuers course starting at Out of the Blue on Monday 10th of January 6-7.30. Place are limited though so if you want to join in get in touch asap!
There was a lot of belly dance action going on in the months leading up to Christmas with the first Shimmy by the Shore hosted by the wonderful Elspeth in Leith. It was a great success and a wonderful way to catch up with the community in an informal setting. The next on is 30th January. A must see for any Edinburgh belly dancer.

November also saw the Edinburgh Egyptian Dancers Hafla. What a wonderful evening of local talent! Ot made me feel very lucky to be part of such a creative community. You can find a link to my performance here doing a new choreography to a Bollywood tune.

There was also the Peebles Christmas Hafla which unfortunately I was not able to attend due to the weather. From all accounts it was a great success.
I'm looking forward to a creative 2011 and can't wait to get the dancing started!
