obliques and glutes

the muscles I didn't manage to awaken in my belly dance class this evening. They may have twitched a few times. But most of the hour was, like every dance class I go to, about releasing expectations. Repeatedly accepting the tightness and limitations of my muscles. Enjoying, for its own sake, the experience of just being with my body.

And of course, the deep pleasure of watching others in the class who are way ahead of me.
