Current temperature: 10c, partly cloudy
I went to my first belly dance (they call it oriental dance here) class here in Helsinki 2 days ago, finally. I found this El Hosseny dance school online before I arrived in Finland. After visited their classes 2 times last month, I decided to join them.
It was Tuija's class that I joined, a small class of around 7 of us (from age 20s to 50s), I like it small group which in that way the instructor could focus and pay attention to you more. It's between beginner and intermediate level, yet most of them have been doing it for few years, needless to say they are good! And they are already doing a choreography since January where they are gonna perform for a summer show in June. It's quite a different style from what I had been learning back home, a lot of techniques I need to brush up as I'm so rusty!

As for yoga class, it will be Ashtanga yoga later evening with Jani. Basically I do 5 days a week of 75-min ashtanga. It's pretty an intense practice for me as ashtanga involves a lot of dynamic poses and vinyasa. Now it's almost the practice time for my own. I'll share more later...
