Puck: Dancing is my happy place. My major dance back ground is in swing and blues dancing, which I started doing in college. I was soon dancing several times per week, sometimes driving an hour and a half to get to dances, and helping teach classes and work shops. I am also a fair salsa dancer, and taught both swing and salsa beginner classes in med school. My belly dancing back ground is more casual and piecemeal. I took a beginner progressive class that was once a week for several months in highschool, which is how I learned the basics. The SCA is another of my hobbies, and most of my belly dance experience has been dancing around a campfire to the rhythms of a drum circle. I've picked up much of my techniques from other SCAdians, and from watching Shakira videos on youtube over and over. I consider myself to have much to learn, but am happy to share my joy in dancing and impart the basics to others who wish to learn.
