I think that would be terrific (and a lot of fun for me as well). Then a woman came in with bruises, and the focus shifted to self-defense. I'm not sure yet what we're going to do. ------- Sylvan Rainwater mailto:sylvan@cccchs.org Program Managaer Family Literacy Clackamas Co.

Belly dancing gives them a new self-worth by revealing a hidden value in their bodies (not to mention how good it ought be for their backs). Ivonne Lalyre Mass. Dept. of Education
