Birthlight Forums

Hi to all, I came across a lady called Maha Al Musa last year. She is an Australian lady of Middle Eastern decent who has been teaching Belly Dance classes to ladies for several years. She has pioneered an approach for utilising Belly Dance in pregnancy and during birth. I reviewed her book 'Belly Dance for Birth' as part of my AquaYoga diploma. I loved this fun and different approach to enjoying an active pregnancy. Many of the movements are similar to those we use in Birthlight but the dance element is fantastic. I just wanted to raise awareness of her work and I'm writing now because she has just released a DVD showcasing what she does. Her website is www.bellydanceforbirth.com and orders for her book and DVD can be made there. Best wishes, Peter Abu-Jabir

 Hi Peter,

Thank you so much for making this DVD better known.  Since I heard your book review at the Aqua Yoga Diploma I have been meaning to get in touch with Maha Al Musa as I thought she might accept to do a workshop for Birthlight at one of the Refresher events, perhaps the next one we are planning in Sept 2010.  It's great that she has produced a DVD and also that orders can be placed on her website because the book was difficult to obtain. If you are communicating with her could you approach her re a possible workshop?

All best wishes
