This is somewhat related to MIdnight's post...but I think she was asking about 3/4 shimmies?
I have 3/4 shimmies down absolutely pat, but what I'm really having problems with is the basic stationary shimmy. I've gotten a number of tips from my instructor to quickly move my legs back and forth until your legs hit a 'zone' where you can feel your quad flopping back and forth, and that you need to keep your legs relaxed, but I can't seem to get it. My body just stops doing it after a couple of seconds & I can't seem to relax my legs. *sigh*. I'm doing really, really well in bellydancing but this is a sticking point and problem that is really driving me nuts as it's something we do so often in our performances, etc.
