Martial Arts & Dance

Photo by Jaiyana http://jaiyana.com/ I did fuse Karate and Belly dance together for my last solo. It was nerve wracking cause I really couldn't practice it totally since I was using a bo staff. I used the bo like a cane for half of the dance and used it like a bo in the other half. Unfornatetly , you can't practice with a bo in your house so you have to go outside. Outside is a problem when there's still snow or when your husband's business has all kinds of people in and out of here. I felt uncomfortable having people watch since I was practicing. I even had one guy drive by doing movie martial arts noises and I went in after that. I did it but next time I will have to see about a place to practice. Oh, and I did make my whole costume except for the hip scarf. I will blogs on tribe for the Hakama pants, Geisha top, karate necklace and earrings. I already have a blog for my throwing star barrettes. http://people.tribe.net/erikaschiquis/blog/f36b0634-cc54-4928-8cc8-f61dfdf467b6 Speaking of which there's a tribe where there's martial artists and belly dancers on it http://tribes.tribe.net/maamed?_click_path=Application%5Btribe%5D.Tribe%5B4aae0edd-2a8e-4c7a-9ecf-eb0289ba50a8%5D and a awesome dancer with both skills-check out her vids too Morgana Tribe http://tribes.tribe.net/morganaingermany?_click_path=Application%5Btribe%5D.Tribe%5Bb2ac784b-eaab-49c3-b85c-ae747eff08f3%5D
