And because I'm a listy type person and everyone loves a top ten, here are my top ten reasons why you should come! Well....if you live somewhat nearby.
10. Did I mention this class was FREE? Because it is and people love free shizz!
9. Coming to this class is going to be fun! Because we'll be dancing, and dancing is FUN!
8. What other time is butt-shaking more sanctioned than at a belly dance class? And don't we need more sanctioned butt-shaking in this crazy, crazy world?
7. Dance! Dance! It's good for your heart! The more you move, the less you.... Nevermind.
6. Every time someone comes to my belly dance class, Florence and the Machine records a new song.
5. You get to hear me say things like "squeeze your glutes." And see me say that with a straight face.
4. For all of you writer types who get brilliant ideas while in the shower...did you know that belly dance class is the new shower? Also black is the new black.
3. Every time someone comes to my belly dance class, a vampire loses its sparkle.
2.Coming to my class makes you cool... Down! Because you'll do a cool down! Oh, I crack myself up!
1. Dancing, and dancing strongly, is one of the best expressions of Girl Power around. And these days, we need all the girl power we can get! GIRL POWER<---say it like a Spice Girl.

Best of luck with your classes Frankie. If I wasn't such a world class dork-I might try my hand at it.
ReplyDeleteI think this picture was taken down in Smithville, maybe? (Smithville is one of my fav places to hang, especially the book store/tea shop)
PS I also think you are amazing for doing this, for free!
Thanks, Jaybird! Trust me though, I'm a huge dork, and I'm running this class. Also...YES! That IS Smithville! Good eye! They used to have a yearly belly dance show there. The studio is actually the one offering this class for free...and just one class (the rest carry the usual studio price). But it's still pretty awesome
