Shimmy-Fit is a Fitness-based class that is more than a hip shimmy clinic & you'll find no boring 'sit-ups' in here! Building Core Strength is our goal with warm-ups & exercises focused firmly on your abdominal muscles but also benefiting inner thighs, lower back, balance & yes, even digestion. But before that more than 15 types of shimmy introduced each session in this movement class (including belly flutters!) working 1-on-1 with shimmy technique for skill, then up the tempo to build proper speed before maintaining the speed for increased stamina. Once stamina is achieved we'll work layering the shimmy & even traveling with it. This class focuses on proper form/technique & will include a brief warm-up and delicious cool down stretching; Great for newer students in addition to the serious dancer who just wants to keep their shape - everyone wants to improve their shimmies! We recommend you bring a yoga mat, small hand towel & possibly even knee pads for the floor exercises. Can Pre-Register 4 or 8 weeks of a dedicated session. Drop-ins always encouraged on a space available basis - literally start anytime & always come away with something new! Offered every Wednesday at 7:15pm.

The mission of Arabesque as a Dance Center is to to give Chicago a choice; to open its doors to misunderstood dance forms, and give adults a place to learn that's a refuge for them alone. To utilize the art of Mid East Dance to enrich the lives of its community members through local & national dance performances as well as through weekly dance instruction. Our goal is to help each student find the genuine dancer within with their own natural body movements, as it embraces all shapes & sizes, any age or race without regard to any preconceived notion. To bridge the gap between dance professionals in an open & friendly atmosphere, our policy is welcoming to everyone. We promote our new generation of dance with Beauty, Dignity & Grace.
