Hi again everyone!  I have another class handout for you from last week’s Tuesday all levels belly dance class covering the large hip circle and box step (aka v step).

LARGE HIP CIRCLE:

Basic Cue: Center, Standard posture, left arm in 1st, right arm in rest, begin w/ hip sliding slowly out to right side.

Variations:

• Turn: cue with head turn – 1/3 turns to right – lead passes around formation for timing and size of move until it returns to original position.

BOX STEP (or V-Step):

Basic Cue: Arms in Second, large step out to right front corner of “box” with large exaggerated hip bump.

Variations:

• Arms: after the initial cue, arms can be moved into an alternate arm position of the ghawazee step arms or low arm if wanted.
• Turn: cue with head turn – ¼ turn – lead passes around formation for timing, etc. until it returns to original position.
