This type of thing is right up my alley. I love many types of electronica, I miss the music from my club hopping days too and I’ve been asked to gogo dance on a couple of occasions at events. I’ve been playing at the idea of marketing myself for just such a thing in the greater DC/Baltimore area so if anyone has any ideas or leads please let us know. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_DJ.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

I also have been having video issues. I updated my Flash player as well. It’s so bad I can’t watch anything on the site. Any new performances Veena uploads I have relegated myself to only being able to watch on YouTube. As for the new lessons, I haven’t bought another month’s sub because of the issue, since pausing the video does nothing to help with buffering. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif

Free, I would guess (and it’s only a guess) that it might be to protect the lower back muscles which can easily be strained since most people don’t exercise them very much. The hamstrings are connected to those muscles and sudden sliding into the splits could possibly cause some serious discomfort later if not done with care. I say this because I have a long standing (muscular) lower back injury and the only way to really relieve the pain is to stretch with various splits methods.

I agree with Charley on this one. The patron should have sued the club, not the dancer; where I live the neighborhood club has an amazingly small and narrow stage and I know drinks get knocked over and patrons get kicked often. It happened to me once as I quietly informed a dancer that she was on her cycle and might want to change her outfit. A stiletto boot straight to the head as she jumped off the stage quickly. Some thanks, right? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif Anyway, I was under the impression that all dancers needed to be insured for situations like this. I’m guessing this is maybe a voluntary or state regulated issue.

You have the moves, the attitude and the fluidity to be a finalist. I sincerely hope you get the spot! Also was wondering what was up with the seven minute long submission.. very strange.

They also have these which are kind of cool but not as glittery as I want (style 251):

Callus shaver is the best way to go, I forgot I had one somewhere. I’ve been attacking my calluses with a pumice stone for the past two days and I’m pretty sure I’m sanding off way more stone than skin… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif

As a continual fuser of genres, I have to say I agree with pretty much most of what was said already. Veena, you did a wonderful job at a difficult effort, belly dance and pole dance can be very different in their timing and flow. I think some of the baladi egyptian & revival carabet styles are more languid and adaptable to pole and exotic dance. I’m reminded of the lovely Neena and Veena Bidasha by your style and adorable hairpiece.
https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gifOh and as an aside note, I believe it is pretty readily apparent to see some of the birthing symbolisms present in ancient bellydance floor work. But even Rachael Brice echoes a similar commentary to previously mentioned Suhalia’s sentiments.
Bellydance or more appropriately, middle eastern oriental dance, is a complex cultural tapestry with rich spiritual symbolism in all of it’s many forms. In fact it gets pretty confusing to identify one cultural stylization from the next at times and then add attempting to fuse it with something else like pole dance which is already a modern fusion of gymnastics, ballet, yoga, burlesque, etc. is fun but exceptionally hard do to well.
I hope all bellydancers can see the validity in the graceful world of pole art as the world has recently come to see with their own dance forms. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_colors.gif

wow got two responses to this less then an hour apart. The only fair thing I can think of to do is to do it by time, which means marle gets first dibs. However sugarcookie check your inbox anyway https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
