J be sure to follow along the 100 Days Of Dance staring on January 10

Thanks for watching ShaMecha King Simms. We appreciate you!

So very happy to know you enjoyed this class J. We will be sure to pass your comment along to Liz.You could wear very lightweight hand gloves when practicing. You can also try lightly buffing the wood of your fan veils with very fine sandpaper or nail polishing buffer. Keep up the great work!

So glad you enjoyed it Jacqueline Garza. We have to agree with you 100%. Vanessa is a fantastic teacher. We are so honored to have her with us on the platform. Thank you for dancing with us!

Chloe Gellert Thank you for you sweet comment. We will be sure to pass it along to Omoladun ❤️

And here you can see that one sided accent in a more advanced variation:https://raqsonline.com/programs/quarter-twist-shimmy

Hi Kathrin,

Great question. I did that to focus on the technique of one side at a time. Sometimes you may choose to do a twist on one side only or even it out by taking it over to the other side. Very often in Arabic Raqs Sharqi style you will see a traveling twist where the emphasis stay on one side. When drilling it is nice to build dexterity by drilling both side. Either way is acceptable.Thanks for the great question!

Every week we post a performance video of one dancer in all our socials. 

Hi Victoria! We miss you too. Sadie has a live next week. We hope to see you there:
