Ottoman Nights

We begin this episode with a standing warm-up and stretch aimed at improving balance and enhancing grace and fluidity then return to the fundamentals aiming for perfection of the basic Egyptian step. Next, we take the basics to a new level, adding variations, creating one of the most challenging moves in the whole series: the standing figure eight layered with the tremor. If you can't layer these moves together the first time through, you are not alone! Keep practicing the moves separately then try putting them together on your second or third time through. A little bit of extra belly really accentuates these moves so pay attention to the sensuous ripples the voluptuous Manon creates while performing the tremor then treat yourself to a bowl of pasta! Why diet when you can Shimmy?
