Hi Julia

I use a great way to teach the ladies in our classes to shimmy. First, you have to stand with your legs apart and bend your knees - this gives you a good solid base to help stop those unwanted hip shimmies! Then pretend you've got a pencil sticking out of your cleavage, and there's a giant blank canvas in front of you - you need to scribble on the blank canvas. Try it! It really works!

Good luck!
