Thread: Unlurking

Helloes,

I've been hopping around like a ferret on pixy stix, reading through threads from ages past, and since I finally got an urge to post something myself, I guess I'll make an introduction thread first. Even though I generally don't. Then again I haven't joined any new forums for years. Ceasing to babble now.

I've been dancing since the beginning of 2005, mostly in the Egyptian-ish style of my current teacher (she is of the mind that it's all bellydance), though what I really want to do is tribal fusion. Alas, there are no tribal fusion teachers in this city, and if I owned a car, commuting to the nearest TF class would be the only thing I used it for. Hence, I'm an eager DVD-collector.

Another secret desire of mine is to start teaching, but a) I do not feel that I'm anywhere near skilled enough yet and b) I would hate to compete with my teacher for students, so that one, should it ever be fulfilled, is a very long term thing. My teacher has asked me to sub for her a couple of times, though, so there's a little taste, at least.

I'm also a costuming geek. My current project has so far seen me switch the thead in my sewing machine to one matching the cover fabric just to zigzag the edges (which will never see the light of day) and hand-stitch fabric to straps which will be completely covered in beads and sequins. Unimportant details are IMPORTANT, dammit! Wait...

So yeah. New here in the sense that I haven't left any dancer droppings behind yet, but I HAVE BEEN WATCHING YOU! Yes.

Hello Jing! *waves*
