i like your understandig of the egyptien bellydance which is like u said about the soul.today people mak of this dance a kind of "body parts seporetion circuse". still u lak of tecnuic but thats a matter of practice.good dance:)

ok your sending alot of mixed messages and what not in any event the shimmy you are talking about is a basic shimmy or a hip shimmy that is with bent knee's in plie the shimmy with the knees is the egyptian shimmy with straight legs

there are times i cried during a sad song, while dancing. after a while, your body just knows how to move with the music and you become so lost in it that you become the song itself. keep doing what you are doing, expression and all...because thats what BD is really all about..not for money and show.

most teachers dont like to share there secrets so they take the easy route and teach you easier ways to do moves. i can shimmy faster than any other dancer i know and i dont move my knees one bit, unless i want to move way around the floor, then you have too. i will never teach dance because i never took a lesson either...it all came from within and i make more money than the dancers who took classes.

i hate when people try to tell others how to bellydance. its not something u pick up entirely from some stupid class. it comes from within and however you feel like moving to a certain song is YOUR form of expression. fifi abdo never took ONE LESSON in her life, yet became the most famous dancer of all time. you can shimmy with your legs closed if u really wanted to. real shimmies are done using concentration on the hips, but fakers like to use their knees.

Not bad at all. But your hands, at the begining, look a little strange. I agree, you have the tendence to open your legs at shimmies. Legs should NEVER be oppened, according shokry mohammed. But you have a good sense of the fluenty. Just try a little more, and, it's a sad song, true, but don't dramatized very much. Other wise sadness looks like a caricature. And, finally, don't try too much to look like a woman. You have your grace as you are. Good luck.

thank you but about the shimmies guys: i cant shimmy ell with legs together i no its incorrect but thats just the way it is :) and im not dramatizing its just natural emotion

Good! I enjoyed your performance

Great job. I can see you love Lucy.

actully, not so much Lucy
