The Poetry of Persian Rings
The history of humanity can be shown through the history of jewellery. Not only the discovery of different materials, but also the evolution of beauty aesthetics are represented there. Each piece is a work of art, it is hours of creative patience, it is a silent storyteller. To this today jewellery is passed from generation to generation, witnessing people’s lives, keeping their secrets, and telling their love confessions. Could you imagine how much they could have told us if they were able to speak?
Each country has different jewellery history, similar in some ways, but always with a unique flavour of its own personality. Here is a mini-story of Persian rings from antique designs to a more modern style. I have always been fascinated by Middle-Eastern jewellery. Their intricate patterns and colourful shades charmed my mind long before I got into Middle-Eastern dancing. The combination of elegancy and mystery embodied in Persian rings always sets the mood to the outfit. You can’t but feel special wearing them.

A BELLY DANCER FROM UKRAINE. WHY NOT?
I'm Ukrainian and I'm a belly dancer. I love what I do and who I am. It is natural for me to move to a baladi rhythm, and wear a scarf around my hips. No, belly dance has nothing to do with Ukrainian culture. Why should it? If.... READ MORE

Yesterday I have re listened to the podcast episode with Marta Korzun. ❤️It’s so funny to hear your own voice and recognize moments when you got nervous or unconfident… 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️Nevertheless, I’m so happy I’ve launched this project despite all self doubts and fear of my own imperfection as a speaker or interviewer.🤗
.
Also, I’ve realized the power of re listening and reviewing things. ☝️Here are my favourite quotes/takes away from amazing @martakorzun ❤️❤️❤️
. ✅I think that technique without soul, or without emotions… you know, I can’t watch these dancers for a long time. But I like dancers who dance maybe more simple, but with a soul.
.
✅I always say them [students]: Calm down. Calm down. It shouldn’t be one hundred movements in one minute. Sometimes we have to stay, sometimes we have just to connect with an audience, to smile…
.
✅I believe that the second place motivated me to work so hard. […] And as a result I’m so happy that I took the second place, because I don’t know, if I won the first place, maybe I wouldn’t have worked so hard [afterwards].
.
✅It’s better to dance what you want, how you feel it, not how the judges want you to dance. And then you will win. Only like that, only if you like it, not somebody.
. ✅A lot of people say that you need to find your own style, but I think if you find your own style, and if you dance all the time in one style, maybe it’s boring. Maybe for you, or for people… I prefer to be all the time in search.
