“I took my first class in this dance form on August 2, 2011, as a way to get some ‘me time.’ I had no idea just how much it would change my life. I have a history of anorexia, weighing somewhere between 85 and 100 pounds for most of my adult life. While I no longer starved myself when I started dancing, I still struggled with body image issues. Through this amazing, transformative dance form and incredibly supportive dance community, I have developed a genuine appreciation for the beauty in ALL women. At 85 pounds, I felt that I was too chubby to wear a swimsuit. Now, at more than twice that weight, I bare my belly and dance with pride, passion and pure joy in front of crowds. This dance is a release, a mode of self-expression…it helps me survive the rest of my week. What started as an experimental hobby has now become a passion. I LOVE this dance form!!!”
