Regular readers, I promise that I have written many make up reviews, tips on belly dance shopping in cairo and many other things that I just need to edit!! Since my last post I have been to Egypt, Dubai and Morocco as well as working towards my Master of Teaching Degree, so time has been a little scarce. In the mean time here is a selection of funny, inspiring and dance related memes that I hope you enjoy.

Belly Dance has to be one of the most diverse dance forms. There are so many different styles and formats. Belly Dance often has a profound impact on those that participate. Every so often I will share the photo art and poems of Tahnee. This lovely teenager has been expressing her love for the dance through these 2 mediums and she has been so prolific that I think it a shame that only I get to see them so I have decided to share some of her work.
She made this one after her first ever performance and she had only been dancing for one term!! Outstanding dedication!

One of my most popular posts was a short collection of quotes, mostly relating to self- esteem and dance. I have been collecting inspirational quotes for years so I thought I would post a few more to help inspire you. Also a big hello and much love to all the beautiful dancers participating in World Belly dance Day tomorrow.
Take more chances, Dance more dances
