May newsletter!!!

I loved reading the May newsletter (yes, it was sent out only about half an hour ago--I devoured it immediately)!

(For those of you who haven't read it yet, this one features articles by Angelique, Vashti, Alexandra and of course the lovely Suhaila.)

Thank you for opening yourselves up and sharing your thoughts and feelings about dance, life, fusion and family.

I also wanted to share the link to the YouTube video of Angelique's fabulous Rakkasah East performance that she mentions in her article:

Mwah! Thank you for inspiring me.

    Thanks for the clip, Marisa! I also have already consumed the entire newsletter and came straight here to post in response to, what was for me, the most moving newsletter yet!! I loved the overall Mother's Day theme. Being a proud mother of two (ages 7 and 5) as well as over six months pregnant now and a bellydancer, it just really hit home for me. I especially connected with Angelique's article. I had the experience, at class this past week, of someone telling me how fabulous I was doing, then asking me, "So, how long do you think you can keep this up?" I got to answer, "I don't plan to stop." Beautiful photo of Jamila, Suhaila, and Isabella!!!!

    As someone who is almost 7 months pregnant myself, this was a very inspiring newsletter and much appreciated. It was also much needed after reading some threads recently of instructors not letting pregnant women participate in classes at all due to the school's liability. I can't imagine having to drop dancing all together just because of pregnancy, and I am greatly pleased that everyone at Suhaila's is so welcoming all the time, and not just when it is convenient.
    Thanks again for the wonderful newsletter!!
