- This is not a shimmy choreography or workout... this is just me riffing and practising my shimmies!
I usually don't like to practise in silence, so I usually just dance to music for fun.
I am not familiar with the song, so my moves don't quite match the music.
Just sharing my shimmy practice here!

Hey, for a practice to a song you are not quite sure exactly how to move to each beat, you still did very well. Practice makes perfect. Great job on the dance, shimmying Zyen.
Thank you so much! I will keep practising for sure, just that I won't share unless it looks good enough 😆😆😆 otherwise I will invite tok much criticism instead and get demotivated!!
Do keep practicing your shimmies too!
@@ShimmyFitz Hi. If people dislike or criticize your videos, they can go somewhere else. tiktok is cancer to social media, same with twitter. I do not even go on those things ever because it is just horrible! But please keep sharing here youtube. upload. all your videos, dancing, shimmyfitz are so stunning Zyenhoo. And again, the shimmies, I have practiced and gotten a little better slowly but it is improving thanks to you. But still long way to go to catch up to your speed and endurance but more practice, more I will be able to hopefully. Thank you so much and shimmy, shake that thing Zyen all you got any time. With love from Philippines.
Amazing sis! I love Artems music and did you rock it so perfectly. I loved it all sis 🥰🥰😍😍beautiful background, and the power you have sis is amazing! like I swear, the power of your shimmies, like here in the video, looks like you are going to fly going so fast 🤣🥰🥰 Keep on dancing. I hope work has been easier lately for you. keep in touch when you can.🥰
Thank you so much! I don't have that much free time but I will try to squeeze in time for dancing whenever possible 😅💃🏻
@@ShimmyFitz oh I know that sis for sure how busy we both are. But any time you can post, that be great. you know you have my love and support always. Hope your having a great day today.
🤯🤯💓💓 Incredible practice with this song. I love Artem Uzunov music. I am astonished how you shimmy such sturdy powerful movement. you are well built for this 💞💞 I did try this a few times before commenting now. your choreograph, practice felt awesome. Though I will say, practicing in front of the mirror. my movements in the legs, booty, hips, I could not get my shimmy to go that fast or strong. It will take me time to get to that point. I want to say how you get it so strong, like you make it look trouble free, serene, and how you do videos here and in other videos, make it so uncomplicated, meaning you make it understandable and easy to learn and super fun 💞💞💞
I also tried side view and rotate around. That booty be going so rapid, accelerating such high speed, so beautiful to see you do that and give me hope to be able to this one day too and make mine go that fast 🙏🙏 Do you keep the booty tight or loose on the shimmy? and how do you get it to accelerate so fast and keeping it going for quite a bit of time? It is why I love belly dance so much because the movements can be slow, sensual, mesmerizing, but the acceleration like to drums, or certain instruments, makes the shimmy go wild and free. maybe do video on how to do the whole booty acceleration shimmy video and tutorial. I know in your past videos, it does come from the legs, how it drives it to go fast. But is it the posture in the movement make it move bigger or faster in certain ways? hope to hear from you soon. Thanks. Greetings from United Kingdom.
To be honest, I was never taught how to shimmy fast.... I learnt the basic shimmy techniques, and then I just practised on my own and I found I was able to shimmy very quickly. So it came as a surprise to me when a few people who viewed my videos (like your beautiful self) complimented me on how fast and strong my shimmies were. That was when I was inspired to start sharing more shimmy videos.
So I'm doing my best to break the process down and I hope to share more tutorials on how to shimmy and improve.
To answer your question - you mustn't go tight, otherwise you won't be able to move your muscles easily. So your muscles must be relaxed but not loose. However, at the same time, you must engage your core (abs) in order to have a strong posture so that you don't hurt your back. So basically - engaged core with relaxed muscles.
I am not sure if you are able to tell the difference, so if you do understand and can do it, great!
For beginners who can't differentiate muscle engagement and tight muscles, I am planning to release a tutorial video to explain the difference and how to identify which is which. For now think about pulling your ab muscles in, but keep your knees relaxed so you can shimmy.
@@ShimmyFitz First, thank you for replying. I appreciate it. I agree with the others because your shimmies are that strong. makes me hope one day I could do it like you can and just go that fast. it is beautiful to see and try every time 🤣💞💞
I will keep following and also with your help, I know my shimmy will improve and get stronger and last longer in no time. inspire each other. So you just caught on quick and from that moment on, just never stopped. I love it.
ok so engage the core, but keep other muscles relaxed. I will keep note on that, thank you. I know it takes time to get used to that but I am determined.
Please do tutorial on this shimmy how you can engage the core, and use the legs to drive the vibrations like you do and also how you drive the booty to vibrate so fast and so big too ok? if you do not mind? like I said before, I practice in mirror after I watch your videos and I feel I am getting better. Just my glutes does not move much. so hope you can make a long video to explain how to make it move so fast, but also have big movement as well. Thank you so much and also after do a tutorial on this. Make a fun video on just all about the leg shimmy booty vibration for fun. see how you do. thank you. with love from United Kingdom.
I am glad to hear that your shimmies are improving! I am actually working on a tutorial about how to improve leg shimmy, exactly as how I explained to you above. I just need to find the time to do it properly 😅
@@ShimmyFitz Hi. That will be sweet. I will keep an eye out for that video. And it is thanks to you that help me get stronger on the shimmies. Though my glutes do not move much so maybe I am not doing it to where you have a big shake effect if you understand? like I know the vibration power will make it look smaller, but there is type you still can go very fast and it looks very big. Hope you can help on this a lot too. Thank you. With love from the UK.
