It's not a major part at all. There are no rules in burlesque, no set moves, no expectations, no nothing. If you find shimmying uncomfortable, just don't do it - no one will think you are any less of a performer because you happen to choose not to shimmy. Get out of the mindset that burlesque is about a particular style of moving, and just do what suits you best
