    Belly dancing is sexy, fun, and burns up a lot of calories to boot! In this video, belly dancer Irina Akulenko teaches you how to do the belly dance move known as hip twists. You'll be shaking it like Shakira in no time.
    So, now we're going to isolate our hips, going front to back. Let's assume the basic belly dancing posture position, knees are bent, chest is lifted, make sure the lower abs are engaged. Now you're going to attempt to slide your hips going forward to back. Sliding the right hip, twisting it all the way front by keeping the chest completely neutral and now you're going to reverse it and slide back and again coming forward and back. Let's try that with music. Make sure the knees are staying slightly bent, the hands are staying really still, chin is lifted, and faster. And once again it's a completely horizontal movement, there is no lift. And try it full speed and that's how you isolate your hips.

    This is definitely harder than it looks. If you can't isolate your hips and chest you're better off sitting on the couch and watch Shakira do it.

      tbh, it doesn't really matter for THIS move because you only work on your hips moving while keeping your ribs and chest still
