FOR SWAP:Belly Dance Lessons for Short-Term Housing

I'm looking to swap private belly dance lessons in exchange for a spare room in someone's house/condo from late May until the end of June. Offers for shorter stays are welcome too. I'm moving to the Raleigh area and will be attending NC State in September. I would like to stay somewhere while I look for work and an apartment. My fiancee will be moving to Raleigh in late June after I've found a place.

My Belly Dance Experience includes:

10 Years of Belly Dancing
4 years of performances in Restaurants and Private Parties
3 years of teaching weekly classes
I am the Assistant for Ansuya Productions (Belly Dance Superstar, See www.Ansuya.com)
Completion of Ansuya's Comprehensive Certification Course (Certificate will be completed on 4/20/08)
Completion of Tamalyn Dallal's Teacher Training Course (she taught Bozenka, Amar Gamal, Keishi and is a Belly Dance Superstar, www.tamalyndallal.com/bio.html)
Completion of Bozenka's Intensive Training Course (Winner of Ahlan Wa Suhlan 2007, Belly Dance Superstar)(www.bozenka.biz)
I have studied at Bozenka's Bellydance Academy (formerly known as the Mid Eastern Dance Exchange) for about 2 years on a semi-weekly to weekly basis.
I have also taken classes with Raqia Hassan, Jillina, Jasmine Jahal, Samay and many others.
I am an intermediate Mid Eastern Drummer and can swap lessons in drumming (I even have a loaner dumbek)
I spin poi and can offer lessons

Please email me asyiadancing@gmail.com if you are interested. Thanks!

FOR SALE:Gorgeous Costume For Sale

I have a gorgeous costume for sale. It doesnt fit me so I am passing it on. I bought it from another dancer. Maybe somebody who is local will buy it and at least I can see it dancing on someone else!!!!

It does not fit me. sigh..................I LOVE it but after looking at several times and trying to figure out how to make it fit I have decided to pass it on. Although it has been bought and sold a couple times, it appears to be brand new, no signs of wear whatsoever. The colors are stunning, it is even better in real life than the photos show. Hopefully, I can get one made that is very similar.

Costume includes bra, belt, attached full circle skirt, veil, and 3 accessories (2 wristbands and 1 other piece that could be a neck band or used as a headpiece) The bra is a C-D cup. I will post other measurements shortly. Paypal accepted. I will quote shipping and insurance based on where it is going. $575 plus shipping. email audraeevans@hotmail.com with any questions
