So I'm not quite sure how my life came to this....a few months ago I signed up to take belly dancing classes at a dance studio close to my apartment. Just something fun I could do for myself to stay entertained while I was here. Somehow that resulted in me dancing in a recital over the weekend in a costume that can best be described as a bedazzled bra and long flowy skirt. When I orginially heard "recital" from my fabulous instructor a month or so ago, in my head I thought maybe we would invite some friends and family over to the studio to watch us dance one evening...which would be fine I guess....and why I missed about 2 weeks of practice the week before the recital. I just didn't think it would be a big deal. But here...things often get lost in translation. or lost in Tagalog.
Come to find out...the recital was in a venue where they used to perform the show Rent....and there were 35 performances from all the dance classes offered at Dance Movement studios in Pasig and Makati. I was definitely stretched out of my comfort zone... I think if someone told me when I originally signed up for classes that I would be dancing publicly in the Philippines, I would have probably squealed....and vowed I would never do it...but it was an amazing chance to immerse, get to know some of my classmates, get my make-up done at MAC, and stretch myself a bit...a lot actually. As I sat back stage I just kept telling myself...."you're in a different country...so if you mess up...no one will know." Other than the fact that now everyone knows since I'm posting it on my blog. So although it was probably good I didn't realize what a big event it would be ....that still didn't prevent me from constantly sweating. but then again that may have been more so the heat than my nerves. probably both.
