How to Do a Hip Lift & Twist in Belly Dancing

Hello! My name is Naimah, and on behalf of Expert Village, I will now demonstrate a hip lift with a twist. You want to start by slightly bending the knees and you’re going to step with the right, push the hip out, twist, bring the left hip up, step with the left, push the hip out and twist. So, you want to step, twist, step, twist, step, twist. Now we’re going to speed that up. You’re pushing the hip out making the hip sharp. That ends the segment on hip lifts with a twist. For more information on belly dance you can visit my website. Naimahraks.com. NAIMAHRAKS.com.
