NADIA MOUSSA: Hello, my name is Nadia Moussa and I am an instructor here at Lotus Music and Dance in New York City. In this clip, I am going to show you how to do snake arms in belly dance. And to begin your snake arm, you do a slow shoulder roll to the back. Roll back, roll back, roll back. Let us start it with one arm at a time. Roll the shoulder, lift the elbow, wrist and fingers come down. Shoulder, elbow, wrist, fingers. Shoulder, elbow, wrist, fingers. Other side. And shoulder, elbow, wrist, fingers. Shoulder, elbow, wrist, fingers. And alternate. One and two and one and two and one and two. And if you do a few of these, you will see why snake arms are so great for toning your shoulders, your arms and your upper body. You can do faster and smaller. Keep rolling your shoulders back and you will really feel the burn. And this is how we do snake arms in belly dance.
