Fierce Fitness News
I think all serious bellydancers are getting pretty excited about the upcoming International Bellydance Conference of Canada (IBCC), which is starting tonight! Here at the studio, Banat El Sharq had our last rehearsal before we debut our new Nubian piece at the opening night gala tonight, I have actually already finished choreographing my solo that I'll perform on Sunday and am now just putting the final touches on it... can't say the same for my solo costume which is an old costume I'm re-working (ha ha - it's still in pieces!) Christina and I spent the weekend finalizing our duet choreography that we'll be performing on the Thursday night main stage. Plus I will be picking my very favourite crazy combos as well as creating a few fresh new ones for my Saturday morning workshop at IBCC! In addition to all the stuff I am involved in with IBCC, I'm super excited to be re-inspired by the many amazing workshops, stars, lectures, and shows at IBCC, as well as covering the event for Yallah Magazine, Gilded Serpent, and Bellydance Talk Radio!
