I will be adding this to my workout playlist because not only do I feel a burn in my abs, I'm sweating all over my body. This workout is amazing and it is so fun as well. It helps me to feel more feminine and this makes exercising really fun. I enjoyed doing this a lot.
Thank you so much Tricey, I am so happy you enjoyed dancing along. It really is a full body workout, you often use muscles you have never used which makes you sweat more and burn calories! Well done! 😃
WOW LEILAH!! This video was amazing!! You are an awesome teacher. I have been looking for lessons on chest circle and how to do it. Yours is the best one!!! Fantastic job, thank you!!!!
It was incredible, I love it. I sweling a lot. Thank you leilah I love your belly dance, I was looking to learn about this dancing and in the end I found you! Thank you!!!!
This comment is in response to your reply in one of my comments. I'm writing a separate comment to reply because I find that sometimes I personally don't receive people's replies and it might be the same for you. My previous comment was about belly dancing moves that can help reduce hip dips. We can't change the bone structure of our hips but we can target the muscles that surround them. From my research, I learned that there are three muscles that need to be targeted in order to reduce the appearance of hip dips. These muscles are 1) Gluteus Medius, 2) Gluteus Minimus, and 3) TFL . I am wondering if there are any belly dancing moves that can target these specific muscles. I'm not sure though because I've seen the types of exercises that are used to reduce hip dips and it might be difficult to get that same kind of effect using belly dancing moves. But I just had to ask because I know that belly dancing uses the hips a lot and it would be amazing to work out certain areas of my body by using fun dance moves.
Hey! Yes you are correct, so this is heavily based on growing the glutes but also reducing and toning the abs. This dance will help with working on the abs, so making the mid section tighter. Of course you will also need to eat a balanced diet. I would say that all the workouts with hip kicks ( which are in most ) work out the gluteus a lot. This is because with every hip kick you are squeezing and contracting the glutes. Nonetheless I think its a great idea for me to do a workout targeting the glutes so I have put this in my notes and will make one! 😀
@@BellyFITbyLeilah Thank you Leilah! I'd definitely love to add a video like that to my workout routine. I'm always excited about belly dancing workouts because they feel more enjoyable to me, which means that I am more likely to follow them. The areas of my body that I want to target the most are the booty and the abs. When working out the abs, I prefer more moves that target the transverse abdominis because that would create a smaller waistline. A lot of workout videos just target the muscles closer to the surface (rectus abdominis), which only creates ab definition but doesn't contribute to a smaller waistline. So, I would absolutely love to see a belly dancing ab workout, as well as a belly dancing booty workout (preferably one that also helps to give the appearance of wider hips and improves the look of hip dips). I'm always checking out your new videos. I don't do much cardio because I'm already very skinny but I'm drawn to the workout videos that focus on toning specific areas of the body. Thank you for sharing such lovely videos with us! :)
Are there any belly dance moves you would recommend for fixing hip dips? I am looking to grow my hips to make them look wider and curvier. I searched for belly dance workouts that will work these muscle groups but I couldn't find anything at all on this subject (at least nothing labeled as such). I would really love to see a belly dance workout for improving hip dips in order to get wider/curvier hips!
Hey lovely! There are no actual ways to grow ones hips. The thing you can do is give the illusion of larger hips. What you have to do then is grow your glutes (bum muscles) and thighs. And loose fat around your tummy and tone up the mid section. This would give the illusion of having wider hips. I will post an abs one soon! But for now look at my lean legs based videos . I will have an abs one up soon too 😀
Leilah Isaac We can't change the bone structure of our hips but we can target the muscles that surround them. From my research, I learned that there are three muscles that need to be targeted in order to reduce the appearance of hip dips. These muscles are 1) Gluteus Medius, 2) Gluteus Minimus, and 3) TFL . I am wondering if there are any belly dancing moves that can target these specific muscles.
Hi Leilah, I really like your videos. I really wanted to learn how to belly dance. My only concern is that I am already skinny. Will I get thinner if I do this once a week?
Hi!! This is definitely one of my favorite workouts you've done although it hurt a lot haha (the twist twist giiirl). Pretty outfit and thank you so much for taking into consideration what I said about the white background
Haha no worries! So happy you enjoyed it well done. I think I might be changing around the background again as the light is better on the other side haha. So much moving around!
Dear Leilah, I recently started working with you videos. As I I am a former dancer myself (Salsa, Lindy Hop...), I am familiar with most of the moves and I am used to the isolating thing. But I have a question concerning the twisted shimmy: my butt is shaking so much, it doesn' t feel right. Is it just my body (very untrained the las years)? and it will stop by exercising? Or do I relax to much? So the question is: during twisted shimmies is the butt and calfs relaxed or tensed?
Can you tell us what music you use for your vids? ❤️ Love these workout vids to perfect the individual moves and improve speed, I gradually would like to add the movement to music but don’t have a lot of knowledge on what kinds of music to start with :) thanks!
This has been great, Leilah! Thank you! I got back to my belly dancing classes here in Portugal the other day and it was amazing! Can't wait to meet in you in London when I am back! :P Love and best wishes. D'
Hello! I love your workouts!! Just wondering, I had saved a few of my favorites to my Bellydance section of UA-cam, so I could enjoy them again, and they were deleted. I was just wondering why?
Leilani, when you say squeeze your glutes when you’re doing the twist. Do you mean that only one Glute should be squeezed per twist? Or do you keep both glutes squeezed the whole time?
Hey Jen I squeeze both when I twist actually but that gives a certain effect. you can also do the same move without squeezing and it will have a different effect. See which one you like more on your body. But to workout its best to squeeze both! Also I would love you to join my first online class class if you are around! The info is here: www.leilahbellydancer.com/virtual-belly-dance-class-live Either way, keep up the dancing 😁
Hey lielah your every videos is very nice. I practice on that but i do not do chest circle and other chest movement. So please help me. Make any video on chest move and explain slowly slowly step to step. Please lielah......
Hey Sikdar! Thank you for the message. Are you in my Facebook group? The link is in the desciption on this video. I have a video on there talking through chest circles! The group is called 'By leilah belly dance workouts' See you there!
HAHA! A lot of people found this one difficult! so big well done for getting through it! The pretty pink pillow is from a very random shop in West London but I do not know the name. If I pass it again I will let you know 😀
Hello Ranju, as long as you are on the right diet, eating heathy food and small portions, it is best to do, 2 or 3 of my videos a day, and you will start to see real results in just a few week! 😀
But why does my upper abs pain when I try to do this shimmy and I'm able to do it quite well but I don't know why it pains.... can somebody explain!!!🙏
Really superb, so wonderful and highly perfect impressive instructions of belly fat burn by belly twisting excersize and greaceful creativity and super coreographic workout and nice expression and highly impressive thrillings and nice moves and walk and so much very nice and very super body language in this super belly fat burn excersize workout and beautiful video and always all of you go ahead and ahead and the almighty God bless to all of you for your bright future with all good wishes.

Hey Andea! I actually do not know, however there are very similar tracks which are called Majence' s. There are entrance musical pieces for belly dancers. 😃
