I need to find the confidence she does, and all the big girls do. For years I didn't learn because I'm a size 12, and just hated watching my fat jiggle in the mirror. But I need to chin and up forget the media lies! Thank you for the inspiration Tina! :)
I am saving this video. Her confidence radiates and captivates from moment one. She has a similar body to mine and I want to get into belly dancing again, and she is truly an inspiration :-)
This is proof that you don't have to be a size 0 to belly dance and be good at it. Every woman is built to do this dance, and you are just another example of this :-)
I love your outfit!! I have a bunch of things from L. Rose designs, she does such a great job, her daughter shoshonna invited our dance company to perform at her show this october, so excited!
The silk skirt was made by L. Rose, the hip scarf is a shawl tied under the belt by Cost Less imports, I made the bra to match the belt and the vest came from a thrift store. I invest in key pieces and then go out and hunt bargains for the rest.
This made me cry. Tears of joy of course, but this provoked such emotion for me. I'm starting out as a plus size belly dancer and you are SUCH an INSPIRATION!!!! Thank you for sharing!!!! P.S. Where were you able to find a nice costume like that in plus size??
I LOVE this! I want to take belly dance lessons myself but as a big girl I wondered... This was a great performance and showed that size really doesn't matter. I'm encouraged! Excellent job!
I am in love with this dance. So beautiful and graceful! I would love to know where she got her costume. I haven't been able to find anything in large sizes like that.
Wow. She is GOOD. Excellent feel for the music, and her zill playing is music with it, not just noise like so many others. Nice costume too, it's so hard just to find street clothes in big sizes.
My only critique is that the costume is so dark, and against that dark background, you can barely see how she moves. I'd recommend a lighter background or a lighter costume next time.
