How to Do the Choo-Choo Shimmy in Belly Dancing

Hello! My name is Naimah, and on behalf of Expert Village, I will now demonstrate what is called a choo choo. We will begin by slightly bending the knees, bringing the heels off the floor. You’re going to go into a shimmy, then you’re going to make that shimmy faster. You’re going to move it to the side, move it to the other side. It’s called the choo choo, but usually you would take this and move it around the room as if you’re a train. That ends our segment on choo choo shimmies. For more information on belly dance, and myself you can visit my website at naimahraks.com. That’s NAIMAHRAKS.com.
