I've been on a roll with preparing for the new season. My class program is roughly halfway, and I need to add some extra background information. I am sure that classes will be awesome this semester!
This time I started using Canva (On Canva.com) for creating digital promo material. It's fast, it's free, and it can be done on the go. What else are daily commutes for? I recommend working with canva, but on the go the app is easier. The options on the website are more divers though. It took me about twenty minuts to create something I liked and save it to my computer. So far I got this:


This weekend I am teaching my first workshop 'Bellydance during pregnancy' to non-bellydancers. I am rather excited about it, as I plan on teaching these workshops and maybe short class sessions in our home studio next year. This is a nice way to try if it works and how to tweak it. I made a powerpoint presentation to structure the information, and I'm printing a couple of flyers out in case they like the workshop and want to tell other people about it. This is the BD for pregnancy flyer:

Have you used Canva or another online editor before? What do you recommend? I still use photoshop but a lot less. Most of the time, a good picture tells most of the story. I am leaning more towards using pictures with a lot of smiling faces on it to draw people in. The 'pretty dancer' pictures are useful for many things, but I have to get the local students and soon to be moms to sign up and I guess they like seeing images of women they can relate to.
