  3/4 Shimmy Switch (Up)

This super fun drill is all about the 3/4 shimmy and how to switch from leading with the right and left hip. Drilling at various tempos to really lock it in. Come back to this drill when you feel like you need a technique tune up for your shimmy!

  44 Down Hip

One of my favorite timed shimmies, the 4:4 hip! This is a great shimmy for layering and keeping consistent timing with the music.
