Hips and Hops on a Snake
We begin this episode with a true dancers' warm-up aimed at increasing flexibility in the legs and back. The teaching section is excellent for those interested in tribal belly dance as we combine sharp lower body movements with fluid upper body moves -- a classic combo in tribal style. The level changes and hopping make this episode the biggest calorie burner in the Shimmy program so the finale features energetic solos from the tight and toned Dominique and Karen. Remember to use your glutes and not just you quads when changing levels and keep your arms up high for a real work-out.
