get a video of Fifi and copy hers! Always just the knees
|
Now, I have not worked with Fifi but I internet-know people who have, and they commented after recent workshops with her that she was most particular about her shimmy NOT being driven by the knees. She apparently said "not leg". And indeed I recently watched some closeup footage of her shimmying and it was most definitely more of an up-down hip rocky type of shimmy than the slightly side to side quality you get with a vigorous Reda-style straight leg shimmy. Although I have no doubt she probably uses more than one.
