Make your shimmies bigger, louder, longer, and juicier! Shimmies are the quintessential belly dance movement, so let your shimmies shine! This workshop is great practice for new belly dancers, and also a great way to review and improve shimmies for experienced dancers.

Here’s what past workshops participants have said about 1001 Shimmies!:
