The Villages Gone Wild!

[redwitch]

Or so says my daughter. Told her I was going to a belly dancing class at Nonie's this morning. She absolutely did not believe me. When she finally did, that was her comment. She wasn't that far off the base, either.

Ladies, it was so much fun and such a great workout. Adele, the instructor, has been doing this for many, many years and truly knows her stuff. We danced, we pranced, we shimmied, we flirted with veils and jingled our hips. We also laughed our rears off.

Guys, go play golf while your ladies take this class. You'll truly enjoy the 4th hole at the Orange Blossom course -- at least the guys who were trying to hit their balls did. They gawked, they cheered and they applauded.

So, if you're female and not doing anything next Wednesday between 10:30 and 11:30 am, consider trying this class out. If you're male, go golf Orange Blossom. Either way, you'll have a great time and both of you will get some form of exercise (we ladies will get the most and even have the most fun).

Happy belly wiggling and jingling!

Nonie, thank you for setting this up. Hope more TOTVers join us.

Pictures? We want pictures! Close ups if possible.

[redwitch]

Sorry, Jan, too busy dancing to pull out the camera. Maybe when we're much better and have full costumes. Yeah, right! But you can dream.

BTW -- I did forget to mention for those who want to join but feel they can't do some of the moves because of physical limitations, not a problem. I have arthritis in the spine, shoulder and hip, mainly the shoulder, though. If I couldn't do a move, I just ignored that step. Twas okay with everyone. No forcing to do what you can't.

[nONIE]

OMG, Havant laughed so hard since Ted Mac's amature hour!!!

We wiggled and jiggled and laughed so hard we cried!!! The golfers on the 4th tee were not doing too well hitting their balls.Couldnt keep their eye s on it!!! : :yikes:

We hurt all over and Im not sure if it was from the contorshinist moves or watching each other and "belly" laughing at the same time.

Ladies, send your guys out next Wednesday and come join us on my lanai for wiggling jiggling good time. I personally guarantee you a rip roaring great time. :hot:

[chelsea24]

I might just try that next week Nonie because like most felines, I have a pouch! :o

[nONIE]

Chels,

A pouch is a positive!

You gotta have a pouch to wiggle if your gonna do it right! Just bring your pouch and join us next week. Be sure to wear your depends!!!!! LOL

[KathieI]

Nonie, you are a scream.

You should have a box of Depends at the door for all of us upon entering. What's a funny vision is all these ladies belly dancing with Depends on?? LOL..

I can just imagine how funny it must've been. Sorry I caught this bloody cold and couldn't make it. And, .... I won't be here next week so I'll just have to pass until I return for good.

I can imagine how you all were laughing, remember the lunch with you, Chels and I when we almost got thrown out of the restaurant cause we were laughing so hard? Hysterical! You ladies are really bad.

See ya in an hour for our party. Kathie

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Red, thanks for writing that is you can not do a move don't worry. I was in a horrific auto accident and my movement is limited at times.

Will come next week. Nonie thanks for setting this up.

Please pm me with details.

See ya in less than an hour.

[nONIE]

Jan,

Actually there was a female spectator taking pictures but I will only allow them to be posted subject to my approval. So, you may be in luck! Stay tuned!!

[pm10]

I'm sorry.............. but I just have to yell
[b]I WANNA PLAY TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![b]
Please promise you'll still be doing all this fun stuff, when I get there (for good) next year!!
But thanks, RW, and all of you for sharing the fun with us wannabees!

[redwitch]

pm, I can't promise you belly dancing at Nonie's since she's a snowbird but I can guarantee you that something fun will be happening somewhere and, of course, you're invited.

[nONIE]

pm10,

You will not lack for fun things to do in the Villages. This is something I have always been interested in doing ,must be my middle Eastern blood! LOL. So dont worry, the fun is waiting for you and Im sure youll have no problem finding it. Hurry down!

[JohnN]

I'd suggest the Spanish Springs webcam be relocated to Nonie's place on belly dancing days. Think of the publicity and advertising for TV !!!!!!

[pm10]

Thanks Nonie and RW - I am this close (can you see I'm holding my thumb and finger close together) to talking hubby into buying now!! Hopefully our Preview visit the end of May will push him over the edge!! I can only hope!! Can't wait to be an in-person sistah! Lord knows I have plenty of belly to dance!

[nONIE]

Hey John, great idea! Mabe we could be part of the lifestyle preview to boot! Truth is, Im afraid people would definitely re-consider a move to TV.LOL

pm10,

If your trolley brings you past my lanai, I have no doubts it will push your hubby over the edge.

[redwitch]

Not if they saw how much the guys at the 4th hole were enjoying it.

And I didn't mean topless, I meant the top off the Miata. sheesh!!!!!!

[nONIE]

Hey Red,

You didnt waste any time jumping on that one! You are fast!!!!

[The Great Fumar]

Darn it Handi
You told me Miata was a gal over in orange blossom hills and now I find out thats not what Red meant at all..
disappointed fumar

[Just Susan]

Hang this in the lanai, Nonie. All of us wanna-be's want to watch.

With the Spanish eye down we need the variation on LSL. Besides this would be up close and personal.

[Mintjulep]

Nonie,
Are you still having the belly dancing tomorrow??
Would love to come if I can get over the horror of my belly showing!!! :yikes:

[redwitch]

Wear a long t-shirt. Up to you if you want your belly showing. We all started with things well hidden and, as we got hotter, shirts began to be tied up higher, t-shirts tucked. So, get your rear in gear MJ and be there or be square.

[Mintjulep]

Please PM me the address of the tent ... :hot:
as I don't know where to go...
Thanx

[Donna]

Minty,
That drink looks so refreshing.... :bigthumbsup:

[Mintjulep]

Yummm, it's making me thirsty too... :2cool:

Mint Julep,

Im so happy your comming. Dont worry about your belly, you really need some belly to do it right. Ill pm you the location of of the oasis.my harem tent is easy to find! ;D

Susan, We wannabe belly dancers are still kinda shy, that big eye is a little intimidating. How bout when we get really good we put out a video, however that may not be in this lifetime!!!

[chelsea24]

Honestly, ms. Nonie, I didn't think I would like this belly dancing stuff, but I LOVED IT! And we had the golfer's going wild too. I'll be back next week. Thanks for having it! :-*

[another Linda]

Hey, Nonie, you doing this again next week? I'm actually here in TV and next week my company will be gone. I'd love to come. -- Linda

[redwitch]

I was so bummed that I had to miss it today. Stupid a/c guy didn't show up until 11:05. Can't wait til next week!

[Mintjulep]

Nonie,
I thought it was great fun !!! I loved it!!
I'm gonna practice that hip-up walk this week.
And see if I can manage to get control of all my moving parts at the same time...

I have much more admiration for belly dancers now, just knowing how hard it is to keep your scarf on,,, much less all the rest...

Thanx for including me...

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Nonie,

:agree: :agree: :agree: with what everyone said.

Thanks.

HB

[nONIE]

It was so great that you all could be here to join in the fun. The pleasure was all mine.

I think were going to have to rent a hall or something if our group gets any bigger, But thats great Im so glad its growing bigger every week!

Another Linda,

Please join us next week, we would love to have you join our wiggling, jiggling ,shimmying , group. :hot:

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Another Linda,

You will have a lot of fun.

HB

[Russ_Boston]

I wish we were down there so i could get Linda_Boston interested - sounds like she'd have fun!

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Russ, she will definitely have fun.

Wonderful group of women.

HB

[Russ_Boston]

She'll have to change her name though - already have enough Lindas!

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Russ, tell her she can take any persona that she ever wanted to be.

I chose Hyacinth Bucket because I think Pat Rutledge is an excellent actress and Hyacinth Bucket is in many ways the opposite of who I really am.
