Start the new year charged with full of jingliscious energy! Shimmies are a foundational skill in all forms of belly dance. Add a whole new, crowd-pleasing dimension to your dance by layering shimmies on top of basic steps and movements.
Did you know that a shimmy is a fabulous remedy for almost anything that ails you. When properly done, a shimmy can warm your body, release tension in your back hips and shoulders, improve your balance, relax your entire body, relieve stress, recharge your energy levels, and brighten your mood!
In this series of classes, we will focus on connecting with all parts of our bodies, building shimmy stamina, improving balance, and relaxing our shoulders and core, all while we develop the ability to multi-task multiple movements simultaneously.
AND, of those who are hoping to challenge their finger cymbal skills, we’ll add zill patterns to our steps and movements. **Zill playing is not required.
Comfortable, loose-fitting pants or leggings, a hip scarf (ones with coins are best), a layered top (we will get warm and then cool), and lots of water are recommended.
**This class will not be pleasant if you have a full stomach! A light snack and a bit of water before are OK.
