Hi, I'm Johanna, and this is Karen. And we're here from Hip Expressions Belly Dance Studio in St. Petersburg Florida. Let's take our rocking undulation, and we're going to switch feet with it, so you might want to refer to that, it's in another clip, to get that down. But we're going to take it traveling forward. So, we're going to go right foot, left foot, right foot, bringing the left foot forward; left foot, right foot, left foot, slide the foot forward; and right, left, right, and slide; left, right, left, and slide. Good, excellent. So you want to drill that a couple of times. Now let's try it a little faster. Keep the weight forward on the balls of your feet. Make sure that you're rocking back and forth, but not using your shoulders. Keep your body movement and isolated here. Right, left, right, slide the foot; left, right, left, very nice, good; 1,2,3; 1,2,3. Good. One more time. We're going to add a little bit of an angle here. Right, left, right, slide the foot; left, right, left; right, left, right. Very nice, good. Practice that in the mirror, and soon you'll be dancing right across the dance floor.
