ABC - Z
z starts the zill: finger cymbals used in
belly dancing
My mother and I stepped out of
our comfort zone decades ago and took an extra curricular college course to learn
belly dancing. I couldn't begin to tell you how much fun we had and how hard we laughed. I must admit, however, that we learned a lot. It looks far simpler than it is and while we took only one semester of belly dancing we ended up with full costumes including zills, pants and music! And, no, I have no idea which carton holds those special touchables.
Have you tried tapping zills?

Iv always wanted to have a go at belly dancing it looks a lot of fun.Love Jill xx
I don't think it looks particularly easy. I admire you doing that. Maybe my extra poundage would get in the way.
It's supposed to be great exercise! I think you need to find the box where your belly dance costume is stored.
Ah, now I consider this a spectator sport ;-)
I learn something everytime I come here.
Good exercise, I hear.
Looks like the Z n ZORRO, which was my post!

What a fantastic thing to do together. I bet you laughed! Sounds wonderful though.
Something new that I learned today.
Zing is it for me. Hope you can visit and see. Have a nice day!
What fun....they offer a class of belly dancing at my YMCA...I see the girls with all their shinning coins ~ btw, they all look thin!!!
How fun! You are much braver than I am.
What a fun thing to do with your mom. I love the Z graphic at the beginning of this post.
Wow! That really would be out of my comfort zone! Imagine an overweight, 74 year old, high school principal and pastor's wife doing belly dancing -- no don't! It doesn't bear thinking about!
Yes, I have!!! I even used to own a pair (can't find them now). Although I am ashamed to say, that I did not know that they were called zils.
You are brave to start such a course! It must be very hard to learn, but very interesting and probably great physical training!
I know now what zills are!
Have a great weekend!
I do admire you. I know it's good exercise. I'm sure you ought to get out your costume again and execute a little dance (on video??)
I love the image, like brilliantly coloured streaks of lightning going back and forth.
Belly dancing? Ahem, maybe not now.
A great finishing post for this round and the letter Z;
