I had no idea belly dancing and bagpipe music could go so well together.

Wow. My most relevant thought about the first video was, My God, that's impressive. I wish I were anywhere near in shape to be able to consider that.

But my first thought was How in the hell does he pronounce that last name (Huygh)?!

In re gymnastic ability-- I don't know what's possible for you, but Sonnon's approach combines being ambitious with being carefully incremental and concerned with safety (Sonnon's got a congenital connective tissue disorder). My tai chi teacher has gotten a lot of good out of Sonnon's system. More details if your interested.

As for pronouncing Huygh, some googling didn't turn up anything. I was hoping for an interview that included an introduction. However, it may help a little to know he's Belgian.
