Hi everybody! Hope you're all doing well
Over the past few days, I've been practicing my shimmy (mostly hip/ muscle driven) when I decided to view some various Youtube vids. A lot of them emphasized the movement of the knees. I decided to do that & felt that my shimmy could finally hold the 'vibration' that it's supposed to have, compared to my hip-muscle shimmy.
Today in class, I was doing the knee-driven shimmy when my teacher told me to use more of my hips & less of my knees. I trust her because she's been dancing for 15 years (under Oreet, Morocco, etc.) but now I'm confused. I looked online & a website said that both shimmies are acceptable . . . so what exactly is right? What do you ladies & gentlemen do?
