Julianna's Suhaila Studies

I have decided to write about my studies with Suhaila Salimpour, belly dancer and teacher.

I went to a workshop at the mothership last year and became hooked. I call myself a Suhailaette...I have no idea how to spell that. I honestly feel that her technique is going to help me be the belly dancer that I want to be.

January of this year I tested and passed my level 1 test. So I am leve 1 certified in her format. I am working toward level 2 now and am feeling a bit overwhelmed, but know that a little every day goes a long way.

I have purchased almost all her DVDs, and purchased a year of online classes. My dance floor is ready and I am trying to find the time of day I can devote to my Suhaila studies. As of now I have at least one friend who is going to join me for a Wednesday evening online class, and for the first time in my life I am seriously thinking of taking ballet classes.

My sprained ankle is better and I am starting to walk around the house in releve. I don't get very far yet. But, by the next time I go to the Mothership I plan to be much stronger.

If you want to know more about her vision, technique and revolution in the belly dance world go to www.therealsuhaila.com.
