is there anyone who belly dances???

i have heard it is relly good for you so my older girls and i are going to learn how.

my question is if you do does your port and band ever get sore??

I took a 6 week class (met one day a week) earlier in the summer. I could not sign up for the following sessions due to summer plans. It was very fun. I liked my teacher and other classmates who were of varying ages and sizes. At first I thought it was going to be rather easy although I heard that it was good for your abs/core. But you actually do get a good workout. My muscles were sore after the class. My teacher had us do a basic warm up first, then we would move into some basic steps and a cool down at the end of the session. No interference with the port. I loved it. I looked forward to Tuesday nights. I even bought a couple of DVD's off of Overstock.com so that i could continue to practice at home. I plan to resume a class in the fall.
