How to Belly Dance

 

It is best to learn the techniques with a live instructor, but here are some moves to get you started:

 

Hand Circle

Draw a circle with the middle finger and allow the wrist to rotate 360º.  As the circle is almost complete, draw the thumb in towards the middle finger.

 

Head Roll (Modified)

Roll the head from one shoulder under the chin to the next shoulder, lift the head up to neutral position and roll it to the first shoulder.

 

Hip Twists

Twist one hip forward, then the next.  It can be with weight shifting to one side, as Chubby Checker has done, or with the weight centered evenly.

 

Lg. Hip Circle

Start with the weight on one side.  Push the hips, belly, and weight to the other side.  Pull the hips back and continue shifting weight to the starting side. 

 

Rib Cage Slide

 With the pelvis tucked, push the ribs over to one side, then to the other side.     

 

Shoulder Lift

Lift the shoulder up and release.
