			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Ladies,</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After our BellyJam class on Thursday myself and a few of the girls are heading to the Meadows Hotel at 72 &#8211; 80 Causewayside, Edinburgh for a Hafla (bellydance party) There will be performances of different styles of bellydance, a lesson and a raffle. Tickets are £10 each (£10 for dancers also) Under 14&#8242;s go free. Doors open at 7pm with performances from 7:45pm. All proceeds from the night will go to Moonwalk breast cancer charities.

<p style="text-align: justify;">The event will take place on Thursday (19th April) 8:30am-9:00am outside the Sheraton Hotel, Festival Square, Edinburgh. Registration is from 7:30am.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">More details here:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;Hi Lindsey, my name is Meg and I work for an experiential marketing agency. We are currently working with Sheraton hotels and on Thursday 19th April we are going to try and break the world record for the largest amount of people hula-hooping at one time! This will take place outside the Sheraton Grand Hotel in Festival Square between 8.30am-9am.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Everyone who takes part will receive a free t-shirt, hula hoop, morning refreshments and will also be entered into a prize draw to win a years membership at One Spa, worth £1,500! We are trying to get the word out and get as many people involved as possible in this very exciting event! We would really appreciate it if you could persuade all your friends/colleag<wbr>ues/customers to get involved! Feel free to also put up this poster around your local area/work place if you wish. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any queries or questions. Thanks so much, and looking forward to hopefully seeing you there on the 19th! All the best, Meg&#8221;</wbr></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Hula-hooping is a good activity for developing core strength and it works well to pull in your waistline. It&#8217;s fun and with practice there are loads of moves you can master! I&#8217;ve previously enjoyed combining hula-hooping with bellydancing. My favourite move I&#8217;ve come up with is what I call the &#8220;hula-hip drop&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ironically I just parted with my own hula-hoop collection but that&#8217;s alright since they are giving them away, wheeeeeeee! :)</p>
