Shimmy Shimmy Electrifying , energetic, and entertaining! Fast-paced fun! The authentic shimmy is the dynamic part of the dance that has exceptional body toning properties. It takes control, isolation, and technique. We will perfect these fast hip movements and combinations. We’ll even add them to kashlamar, tchiftetelli, and drum solos. The shimmies can firm and tone your body--especially your waist, abdomen, hips and thighs. They can aid in weight loss; and develop poise, balance, stamina, and physical strength.
