Shimmy

It's been suggested that belly dance should really be called "hip dance" as this is where the real movement of the dance comes from. In this episode we highlight correct positioning and movement of the hips with moves like the playful hip bounce, maya hips, and the ultra-sexy Egyptian figure eight. The three step turn with hip bounce is a favourite of Adalat and Shivaun's – flirty yet classic. We all loved shooting the performance section with an incredible team of fire dancers but, despite their tricks, Simone steals the show – oozing with sensuality.
