Get ready to shimmy! We break down essential belly dance basics like figure 8s and undulations, making sure you feel strong, confident, and totally at home in your own body.

Let's get up close with the magic of shimmies! This is the heart of belly dance, and the energy my students bring every weekend is just incredible. It’s like a secret dance party for the soul.

Who needs a dance partner when you have a wall? We use the wall to help us master those tricky horizontal figure 8s. It’s a great tool for finding the right posture and muscle engagement, and we always have a few laughs doing it.

Check out this twist shimmy floor work! This move requires serious quad strength, and I'm so proud of how these beginners are nailing it. It shows their amazing dedication and progress.

This is our quirky and challenging sitting Chu Chu Shimmy! It’s a fantastic drill that combines a duck walk with a fast-paced shimmy, perfect for building lower body strength and adding personality to your dance.

Ever tried a Runner Shimmy? We were just out for a run when... surprise shimmy time! This is a great exercise to learn shimmies faster because when you're moving, you stop overthinking and just let your body flow.

This is what happens when the music takes over. Here are my students in a moment of pure shimmy improvisation to the beat of the darabuka. It’s all about feeling the rhythm and letting your body respond.

The single hip figure 8 is such a hypnotic and graceful move. Here we are breaking it down in class. It’s all about creating that beautiful infinity symbol with your hips. Come learn with us!

Fluidity in motion. Here we are practicing two fundamental belly dance moves: undulations and camels. These movements are amazing for developing core strength and creating those beautiful, snake-like waves with your body.

Watch my students master the hip box and then transition seamlessly into a luscious interior hip circle. It’s so rewarding to see them nail these foundational movements with such grace.

Layering is where the real fun begins! In this class, we were juggling chest undulations, hip figure 8s, and hip undulations all at once. It’s a great challenge for the mind and body.
