Belly dancing is one of the best ways to workout, get fit, lose weight, and feel confident. By doing my workouts you will get toned, drop pounds, and learn the beautiful art of belly dancing. You will be using muscles you probably didn’t even know existed, helping you get strong.
Are you a Beginner? That’s great! Although you might find the moves challenging at first, you will soon get stronger and become more familiar with them. Do the workout a few times, and you will surprise yourself. Now let’s dance!

where has belly dancing fitness been all my life

[@BellyFITbyLeilah]

haha thank you! I am super glad you discovered it with me! 😁

[@gglarke7709]

I know I took a class for 8 weeks almost 40 years ago. I remember how fun and fit it made me feel so I m gonna do it again. Yay!!!

[@marolynolson6159]

I have been belly dancing for a little over a month and I am so happy! This is fun and gets me moving like nothing else. Thank you!

[@drea409]

Yeah i found get videos a couple weeks ago. I've been dancing for a week now and having so much fun! But I slept wrong and hurt my neck a bit, so I'm following the blogilates channel instead. Looking forward to more belly dancing soon!!

[@ruthsalinas9479]

Does it really work for weight loss? I’m perimenopausal and have been gaining so much weight 😢

[@user-hx8wy7fw3o]

This was perfect! I'm a complete begginer and could do this without getting too frustrated. Thank you

[@reptielenshowassen1486]

As a complete beginner who has trouble learning, this was actually perfect! Thank you!

[@BellyFITbyLeilah]

Aww thank you ! And well done 😍😍

[@samiavaritt5509]

you have introduced me to belly dance! I am still very much a beginner but your workouts are so fun that it doesn't feel like a workout. Thank you Leilah!

[@alexandriaain3896]

Not certain about the points made but, if anyone else trying to find out how to belly dance for beginners try Sovallo Dance Blueprint Fixer(do a google search )? I've heard some decent things about it and my co-worker got cool results with it.

[@crystalradford7092]

Oh I love this! I lost 100lbs in 6 months in 2020 then took a 3 months hiatus to make sure those good habits stuck. Now I wanna focus on slimming my belly and thought this would be great and man am I feeling it in a my core after 1 workout! Exactly what I wanted. I just hate the ads that pop up halfway through a move and the flow I have is gone :/

[@skaijohni3938]

My very first belly dance class. I really ENJOYED it and can't wait until I get the hang of it. I feel more SENSUOUS already. Thank you Beautiful!

[@alexandrapanico374]

I haven't done your belly dance classes in forever so this fairly simple one was a great way to get back into it. I am still terrible at shimmys but pleased I can remember how to do a hip drop!

[@mandelharvey3429]

I found this routine a couple of weeks ago. I'm amazed at how much better my range of motion feels better. I can reach so much more quickly now. I'm 49 years old and 5'10 two fiddy. Never was sloppy, but I was stove up stiffer after one movement. I can move now. Also my covid-19 vaccine shot doesn't hurt anymore.

[@trialandcreate]

This is so lovely, belly dancing makes me so happy, it's so feminine and this video is a joy to follow

[@rainbowrafiki6022]

This seems like it would be hard to teach, especially over a video. You do an amazing job and thanks for making this video! 😊

[@karagalactic]

I'm doing a workout challenge by Chloe ting, on the days she has you do abs, I switch out her video for your belly dancing videos. And my abs are always destroyed by the end lol Even though I'm a total beginner, I do feel a confidence boost when I finish a video! Thank you so much!

[@tensugarcubes]

gonna try all these to get in much needed exercise while trying to learn bellydance since im too self conscious to take a class thank you for posting these!

[@user-sc1dk4fs1y]

I love this, I try and work out every day and when I need something quick and effective I do this and I love belly dancing

[@diannasaylors1415]

I think it is important for instructional videos to provide proper guidance and explanation of the techniques. I never felt like she was moving too fast, and I appreciated the combination of technical and artistic explanations of the movements. It also never felt boring or slow. Besides the quality instruction, this is shot very well: the camerawork and the voiceover are right on cue, and that is not easy to find.

[@Fleurish22]

This was short and sweet but not to be underestimated in terms of what a great sweaty workout it is. This was awesome and very fun. I love learning this. Thank you! ❤

[@BellyFITbyLeilah]

You're so welcome! Haha so glad you enjoyed ❤️🥰

[@Gemini_Bradshaw]

Your fluid movements are really beautiful and inspiring..really looking forward to beginning and following along with you!!

[@fammue]

As an absolute beginner in bellydancing this was really nice for me. Thank you!!! Love your dance workouts 😀❤

[@msthischick1]

This was so great for beginners, thank you so much!

[@p.m.vanuden8131]

Thank you so much for your videos! I've loved dancing and particularly bely dance and flamenco all my life, but could never find classes where I felt at ease or good enough. Now I dance along with your workouts every morning. Your enthusiasm is amazing and incredibly contagious!

[@jillwhiting919]

Thank you this is just what I have been looking for to try to do everyday to flatten the stomach

[@sharmilabaptista9009]

In true sense,this is a perfect video for complete beginner. Have seen so many videos but this video explains it so well. Your teaching is Superrb

[@cathyhowell6388]

I love this video 😊

[@reneeangely8446]

Love your workouts! Have to admit, I actually had trouble with the wobble shimmy. I guess my body was so used to doing faster shimmies that I had to train my body to slow it down! Anyway, keep up the good work!

[@browntr95]

The hardest part is trying to decide whether to stop and skip the ads or keep doing the same motion through the ad. also, doing hip shimmys since my thighs and knees are too large to stand with my feet together to do them 😅

[@bemarie08]

Same

[@afreen5058]

Watch the video first without dancing along, then replay it! The ads won’t show again, and you get a preview of what you’re actually supposed to do!

[@WendyRisoli]

Yhis might help me with burlesque. Ive always wanted to learn belly dance. Dance dance.

[@Keylimequeenz]

Thank you so much for these videos! I have so much fun doing them and feel so great while doing it too! Thank you for the hard work!

[@chrissloan8072]

Hi Leilah :) I love your videos - you have a great way of breaking down the steps and then putting them in sequence. Can ask though, as I have just had a baby 2 months ago; are there any steps that help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and/or correct Diastasis Recti? Are there any steps that I should avoid at this time? Could you possibly make a video (or perhaps 2 or so . . .) for postpartum mothers who are wanting to start re-toning there muscles without over-doing it?

[@kathyknoll3144]

I am a beginner and am lookin forward to learning with you and hopfully shed few pounds, thank you!

[@soundsspace3739]

Definitely coming back

[@rouxaddler595]

This was a fun workout. I think I've missed any videos working on wobble shimmies so I'm glad you broke them down here.

[@MarisaZeppieriCaruana]

This was great! Thank you. What would you suggest for a second video of your after we've mastered this one?

[@carerckt21]

I love both your intense workouts and these slower ones! I love working to perfect my moves but then also burning serious calories! Thanks Leilah!

[@blessed7015]

I have fun doing your beginner's videos. I have some physical issues/pain, but I am enjoying this so far. Thx.

[@moktajosna3712]

The best website so far I found to learn Belly Dance is 4BellyDanceClasses.blogspot.com Hope this will help….

[@gabriellaraejimenez]

I am so glad I found your channel! These videos have really kept me entertained and moving during this quarantine:)

[@jennyrokeach1958]

Beautiful lesson 🎉❤

[@arminaluv1279]

I love this video!! I was sweating the whole time!!

[@eviteo98]

I liked belly dance years now...but combined with work out it is another dream come true!!!You are perfect Leilah!!!Thank you so much!!!Kisses from Greece!

[@sana.m.haddad]

Cardio has been too hard on my body as I've been feeling very weak, but this is perfect and gentle on my body while still toning and burning fat, and it's super fun!

[@NayNay_D]

I, with no experience was able to follow, thank you very much.

[@libbyanne5261]

That was brilliant and so simple, great place to start, thank you ✨❤️ Can't wait to learn more 😊

[@cassandra2968]

I got the chest shimmy!!!! Oh my gosh I can't believe I did it!!!

[@skylight4746]

Excellent and this helped with belly dance I am practicing.Thanks for your guidance. Skylee

[@mariekitty]

Yes! I need the slower paced workouts!

[@tracie_sess]

Your videos has made me very intrigued, I would love one of your hip scarfs and get started asap! This seems more of a fun way to workout than just doing a regular work out routine!

[@hollykbae5231]

Omg at first I was like “I can do this” then I was like *hyper focus and feeling awkward* then I was smiling ear. How freeing!! I love this so much, now I wanna learn belly dancing for real. I just clicked this cuz I was curious lol

[@cristal1039]

My mom wanna learn the shimmy and I can't help she with it even though I do belly dance lol ...so thank you 💜 Greetings from Brazil

[@cathygauronski5354]

Just started today with this class. Very fun and I like your energy.

[@JocelynCleolette]

Hi Leila...thanks for all these videos...I love them all, I'm your loyal fan from Indonesia hehehe A question I always want to ask is, will belly dance make our belly flat and our hips slimmer? 😁😁

[@matthiasharvey4912]

This is an excellent Daily warm-up for construction projects. Fifteen minutes. Fluid. Doesn't require getting in the mud. Please consider more prework workouts. Maybe with big fat inflexible uncoordinated Ken like me in mind. Doing this on my phone when I get to the jobsite is a safety focus.

[@auttienichole]

Just did this... I'm actually dripping sweat. But it's fun and easy!

[@Lea-dp7tn]

That was fun, thank you !! :)

[@tatianaa9406]

Thank you!

[@babyerin]

Can finally keep up 😜🙌🏼

[@BellyFITbyLeilah]

Fanatastic Erin! That's wonderful! 😍

[@shirleywoods1531]

thanks! Love your teaching! Watched several!

[@bronwynsue]

Love your videos! I bellydanced 2009-2011 and these are so helpful as I've been getting back into it. One question, would you consider doing a video comparing/contrasting the different shimmies? Even with your breakdown of the wobble shimmy I'm having trouble doing it differently from the Egyptian shimmy. Thanks for all the great videos!

[@Valeria-ks3lz]

You do a very great job! Thank you so much for your efforts and focus on beginners!

[@deborahpayne5855]

Im loving this! xx

[@sincerethoughts1912]

[@USMC_BABE38]

I've always wanted to learn how to belly dance

[@katyalee6969]

The best place to learn belly dance is at my house, and I like to learn from KZbin😅

[@cocoacoolness]

Thankyou, my hips and shoulders keep getting sore from sitting at a desk all day. This is perfect to loosen them up again. Also though, how do I do the chest shimmy without it hurting my chest? Do I just need to wear a tighter sports bra?

[@nishabynature6847]

This was fun, i like moving my hips lol,

[@Бао-я7ш]

Thanks a million!!!!!!!

[@maitokahvi92]

I hate it when this goes faster.. I just can't do it. D: My hips can't go that fast :((
