I taught you how to do the Egyptian Shimmy and the Hip Shimmee in the video clip, "Belly Dance How to Shimmy" . In this video clip filmed in my home studio DreamYogaAndDance.com, I show you how to do the Three-Quarter (3/4) Shimmy, also known as a walking shimmy or an ATS (circling) shimmy that you see many tribal style dancers using to enter a stage. I'll show you how to produce an "up" from the floor, or a "down" using a snap from the inner thigh to get nice isolated movement. Combined with zills, 10 minutes a day of practice leads to perfection.

  • You're a good teacher. Thanks for the lesson. Could I suggest that you use better lighting in your studio. It's a little too dark in these videos. Thanks, anyway. Hope you'll post more.

  • @ninjafly2 Thanks. I agree with you, the lighting in this studio was very poor. I have since moved, and I use CFL's mounted on poles for better lighting when natural light is not available. Did you take a look at my other free video tips on How to Shimmee? They are in a different part of the house. I've also purchased better sound equipment since then.

  • Youtube doesn't like it when I post links, sooo....... Look under How to and Imei under Youtube; should pull everything up, including How to Shimmy, How To do the Vibration Shimmy, and How To Dance with a Veil Advanced Technique. Thanks for watching, and thanks for the compliment.

  • thank you for posting such great videos, i own several bellydance dvds, and this was the best explanation on 3/4 shimmies,

  • @rvsaid1989 Thank you, that was fun to film. If you have requests for other specific movement breakdowns, please send a message. Also, help me get the word out to others. Cheers! ~imei

  • @yourlilchinagirl your welcome. do you have any tips on the vibration shimmy?

  • @rvsaid1989 How about i make my next video clip, "Belly dance How to do a Vibration Shimmy" and give my best tips on it? PM me back, and I'll put a credit to you for suggesting it.

see all
