I had 20 hrs of Shimmy recorded on my Dvr & then the cable co. Said I had to get a new Dvr so I lost all of my recordings. For the record we have Oprah & her desire to have her OWN network to blame for losing Fit TV @ least that is what my cable co said is what happened to it when she moved into the network scene. Thanks a lot, Oprah! Never liked that woman anyway...
But I love Shimmy and Namaste Yoga; pleased to find some episodes on YouTube. Hurrah!!!!!
That "Zar Head" movement should not be taught without supervision. Someone could really hurt their neck if they do it wrong! Not very impressed with the cheap costumes or the meh dance skills. I gotta at least give them credit for creating a certain feeling and good cinematography.
Loved this show, just like All-Star Workout and Namaste Yoga. Every time it came on, I was right there watching. Ever since FitTV became Discovery Health & Fitness, I rarely see "fitness shows". Sure, I still see episodes of that show w/ Gilad, but that's about it. This seems more geared toward health, when it should be 50/50. I wish that they either bring back FitTV (with all its shows), or create a new channel and call it Discovery Fitness, Discovery Fitness TV, or Discovery FitTV. Something.
O.o cant be serious about those bellyrolls!!! they werent rolling their belly's (plural of belly x) ) and the rolling with their heads was ridiculous! to be honest.... their hip movements were nice though.....
There are much better ways to learn bellydance and get a workout than this. There is no instruction, the camera makes it hard to see what you're doing and the dancers are not always very technically skilled. The "zaar head" is a perfect exampled of something that should NEVER be done without a very thorough lesson because you can easily hurt your neck doing it the way they are. What really throws me is that their costumes look cheap. I'm under the impression they have not been dancing very long.
There is no instruction in this video, because this is the last segment of an episode. Each episode goes through different motions, and runs you through them, breaking them down slowly, then speeding them up to time. Then, at the end of an episode, they put together a mini-routine to apply what's been taught.
@MsBTmom It's back on FitTV aka Discovery Fit & Health. It shares a time slot with Namaste Yoga, so either one or the other is on on that specific time slot. At least, that's what the Discovery website indicates.
@bonsiobhan u must read this. once u have started there is no turning back. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murderded in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 vidoes in 30 minutes the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you. well you better start doing

are they going to be bringing this show back on FitTv cus I use to use this to exersise as well. I was wondering why I never saw it on anymore I didn't knwo they had taken it off that's a huge bummer. I was telling my fiance about this, he didn't beleive me so I had to show him thenI find out it's actually been cancled.
This workout really works. Back when i still have FitTV i do this all the time(a perfect alternate for cardio)and my hips have never been so flexible not to mention it made me keep in touch with feminine side abit more(I bet the ladies can agree,while doing belly dancing it really makes you feel very sexy and bold ;))i'm naturally not very good with dancing but the instructor in the show and demonstrations are well thorough even a person with 2 left feet can learn ^^ I really missed this show
:( Anyone know where I can buy the DVDs for this show? I've googled them... Ive been to Fit TV (website)... Discovery Channel (website), and Amazon. What am I missing? I read a review on season 1! :(
i have become a Belly Dancing fan after viewing this show, the women are extremely beautiful and feminine, the music and the narration are hypnotic, the movements make my imagination run wild, the locations are visually stunning as well, All in all i would suggest this to any woman that wants to learn ho to Belly dance, and to any man who loves and admires beautiful feminine women. =^..^=

look dumb dumb...Shimmy is belly dancing series that was on fit tv. If u did some research before commenting youd know that and not look like and idiot
Look idiot.....If you did your research and read my second comment, which is only two posts down from the one you responded to, you would know that I know what Shimmy is and YOU wouldn't look like a moron.
Haha what do you infer by saying this isn't a "video"? Did you mean a music video? This is indeed a video. Pictures are not motion-captured, shmoab.
I've had the pleasure to catch a few episodes of Shimmy on FitTV. This video is most likely at the end of an episode, showing all of the moves that have been broken down step-by-step.
What I infer is that youtube's quality has degraded so much that you can't really call this "video". It's choppy, not free flowing. My comments were directed toward youtube not Shimmy.
I love this show... It's really gotten me started on exercising again (I do this show whenever I can and am doing Gilad's shows also...). Which reminds me... Shimmy will be on in 40 minutes :)
I love this show too it is a better way to work me back into excercising without having just jump back into heavy weights and stuff like at a gym, I cant wait to take a class
I love this show, it comes on on my friends tv and I do the show. Thanks for putting this up. It is nice to learn more movements and to do them as an excersise, the costumes are beautiful as well.
Zar is VERY dangerous without a lot of training and preparation. You can seriously damage your neck. Their showing this is really, really irresponsible.
In the begining of this episode they stretch the neck ( specifically for this move) they also walk you through the Zar head slowly...they are just showing you the actual move,...no one says you have to do it.
this would be even more epic if morgan freeman narrated this
