I've signed up for a belly dance class. Thursday nights, March and April.


The website (http://www.mvlaae.net) is horrifically built. The 'enrollment' form demands a lot of personal information (ethnicity, gender, three different phone numbers, my birthday, 'labor status'... there's a long list) which wouldn't have pissed me off and inspired the great deal of lying that I did, except that *every question* was starred as Mandatory. Then I finally got registered and paid for the course. And, despite having asked for my email on repeated occasions, they didn't send me a confirmation email. Which cemented my unease, and I mailed the 'contact us!' address listed on the website. And that bounced.
I'm fairly certain that this is not a fly by night organization out to steal my money so I'm just going to assume that their web designers are painfully inept.

The designers are woefully inept, probably graduates of the "Learn HTML in 14 Days!" course, usig the site as a class project, designed by committee and nobody keeping up with the admin tasks.

Also, my Dad teaches art classes (primarily daytime, primarily to seniors) through mvlaae. Does not give me a warm fuzzy feeling about their hiring practices.

Now I'm going to have "I Wanna See You Bellydance" by the Red Elvises stuck in my head all day. *pbbthpt*

Wow that site really is just awful! Are you doing the tribal fusion one?

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is awful. And yes, I'm doing the tribal one. It was an easy choice, because the 'Orientale' class conflicted with previous plans.
Are you familiar with either instructor?

I checked the names and nope neither one sounds familiar to me.
