Ok, I think I have read all the threads about shimmies and I still quite don't know what it means (in belly dancing context). I searched for a finnish translation and it didn't help much.
So please help me with this one:
A shimmy is a rhytmic move done to the rythm of the music (usually by counting) alternating on both sides of the body using hips or shoulders (other body parts?). It can be layered with movements of the same or another bodypart.
I'm trying to find the smallest denominator that connects all shimmies. It just feels that it would be easier to follow the discussions if I could figure this one out
