They make the hip lift look so easy but i have no idea how to go about doing it :/
This is great!(: it wasn’t for me, someone in my dance class said they needed help and I didn’t know how to explain it and this is perfect!(: I’m an advanced belly dancer 😀 who else is?
I need to know the music that plays when she demonstrates!
Amazing tutorial and you have an amazing waist also.
She’s good
I’m 10 I’m a beginner belly dancer do u think that’s weird?

you should try wearing the same clothes as the instructor it REALLY helps! (especially the belt thing trust me) XD
It’s so easy!
U know ur bored when watching howcast

It would be a shame for you not to get ripped when these other people do it so easily with Morsch Muscle Madness (Look it up on google).

My family laughed when I told them I was going to get ripped with “Smashing Ripped X”, but then they saw the results. Google Smashing Ripped X to see their reaction.
love your videos… Excellent tutorials!!!!
when i go fast my hips are looking how they should be but my legs just look weird lol
anyone has her knees hurting ? because mine are a little bit tired after that and the thing is my whole body was moving too so I suppose that I wasn’t doing well.
does somebody know the name of that song? or melody whatever? thanks!:)
Me Too
its 100 times better than expert village
Tried doing this and became a total retard :p
After 15 minutes of practice ; My Thighs Burn o_o :Q
This woman does this for a living; she most likely practices her dancing for hours on end. She’s been doing this for years.
It’s actualy not that hard; you just arn’t used to doing these muscle patterns. You need to practice to build up muscle memory.
When I tried to do this, I looked retarted
the only thing shimmying is my ASS!!
yup i agree
its really hard
virgin alert
this is soooo sexy!
