It sounded like fun and we both loved to dance.
Oriental dance is an ancient form of dance that is very demanding but a lot of fun to learn.
The dancers come in all shapes, sizes, color schemes and may be of either sex. I love the dance, and I love the jolity of my classmates as they learn how to move their bodies in ways that Western culture might not have approved off before. Recently I've learned more about the cultures that produce these dances and the history of it. As is the case for almost all my research pages, of course I have a story idea based on a Raks Sharki teacher and performer. It's a romance, with a private detective hero posing as a stripper.
