@lulia we will sure plan to get some more videos like this. Thanks for your feedback.

dorothy de bruyn thanks for the feedback. I'll keep that in mind. It gets really cold here in the winter so sometimes I just need the extra warmth but sounds like the nude jazz shoes may be a better option.

Paula Windle Great!

Fiona I am so glad you like it!

@taschi@ how sweet

@taschi Keep up the great work! With consistent practice you will get it!!

@mayabelly amazing observation. Thanks for sharing!!!

@pjortiz Thank you for the lovely feedback!!!

Hi Marcela, I did touch on it briefly again in this live class. I will add some more classes on the topic in the near future!! https://raqsonline.com/programs/shimmy-fundamentals?categoryId=41410

@carla Thanks for your question. The next live will be dedicated to a new shimmy choreo so I'm not sure if I will get to break down the 3/4 downs. So to briefly answer your question you do not need to contract your opposite glute, though if you do it can help. You should first focus on on the lateral tilt of the pelvis that comes from obliques. Then you can add in the squeeze. I hope that helps and if I have time on the 28th I will demonstrate that.
