  • How do you isolate the top part?

  • @Glamausaurs You actually need to use your back muscles by your spine to push the upper torso forward (but don't clench your shoulders). This is where the posture where she said to keep the pelvis tucked is very important. You never want your butt sticking out like a duck. You should pivot your pelvis, so it's almost like your trying to tuck your butt under yourself. It will feel awkward, but it's correct and you need this posture to dance correctly.

  • @litlhafgost THANK YOU SO MUCH! I acutally did it for once! :D

    Thanks!

  • Comment removed

  • I isolate upper part. Check. Bottom part isolation.. Check. Now connect the two together: Whole belly comes out. jhwkjfsdkfj

  • I can't seperate it! damn it!

  • i cant di it !!!

  • i know how to do this i knew since i was 3 or 4 without a teacher and i can still do it

  • @TheRukiaorihime That's really interesting, 'cause my bellydance teacher was saying how children are often really really good at it! 

  • Omg.. Lol I was doing this one day of school, I didn't even try, and I didn't know what I was doing haha. So i looked it up later and i'm like YAY I CAN DO IT! XD

    My friends are like: You are literally a belly dancer!

    But I don't even take bellydance classes. I take ballet, hip hop, jazz and tap (: It was so weird haha

  • Yasmeen does it wrong... You have to practise totally separate the upper and lower half of your belly, not moving them back and forth like she does. Also, a good bellyroll is done without moving the spine and chest at all. Wich is hard when rolling, but not so hard when you're just pulling in and out one part of your belly.

  • it´s sooooooo hard!!

  • I can't seem do isolate the bottom half

  • Yasmeen!!!!! you are sooo beautiful and your videos are lovely and wonderful,the only thing that i desire to invite you to do is this: if you will become fat you will be more beautiful!!!!!!!! and if you will get rolls of fat on your body, your dance will become more wonderful and sexy to see!!! i think the women that do belly dance should be plumpy at least!!!!! you will be more beautiful if you get fat or plumpy...hope to see you bigger in your next video!!!!!!!

  • OMG,I MADE IT!!!thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxxxxxxx

  • It takes a lot of practice, I can only do it if I'm laying on the floor.

  • i find belly rolls ridiculously DIFFICULT, lol!! If i think about moving the air from the bottom of my belly to the top and back again, all i get is dizzy by doing it Yasmin's way. This gorgeous woman makes it look like the most NATURAL thing in the world... Guess i need to find a local teacher because i am not learning enough from videos. :(

  • @m3na9 yes i know, is easy with a teacher near

  • doing this made me realize how weak my abs are lolz

  • I can do a belly roll , but it is not good like thixxx hixxxx, cause I am so skinny , am I... Is this the reason ??

  • guys, belly dancing moves are something that can take years of practice to master... so don't be so hard on yourselves. Some people catch on quickly... some don't. If you keep practicing, you WILL get it.

  • @HeatherBice thanks for your inspiring words...my instructor goes too fast and in a group of 10 it is rather difficult . video like this is good it is like a personal tutor.

    i almost want to give up but since i have been telling myself that i just want to have fun i dont feel so bad.

  • @tropicalgirl74 I would suggest shopping around for your instructor - find one that fits your learning needs. Someone who can explain the moves, and slow it down for you so you see and feel exactly what you are doing. Belly dancing is all about muscle control. If you instructor doesn't recognize that and use that understanding to teach you, then you are better off with a new one. :) Just don't give up and have fun with it!

  • Bludy impossible, mine goes out and in D:

  • why is this so difficult for me?? is it because i'm fat? :(

  • @sparhkie you know, it's easier to do with a little "fat" on your body :) I have pretty much, but I have a lot of abs :/

  • I don't have abs, but I am not fat, I am really skinny, WHY CAN"T I DO IT. :(

  • @haylybug i can;t either.

  • Adveritisement Your video will start in 30  seconds

  • this is sssssssssooooooo hard for me
