The next thing that is very important in belly dance is balance. You want to make sure you have your balance and you are very grounded because if you are not grounded you are going to be a little bit wobbly on some of these moves which require you to be on your toes or when you are turning. One of the ways I teach my students to get good balance is an exercise for it; you will want to make sure you are in the correct posture. You will want to bring one foot up, right up in front of you, it should be straight out and this will add an extra obstacle to help to keep you, where you have to maintain your balance. If you practice this every day your balance will come to you, try reversing it and then bring that foot down and bring the other foot up, again bring it straight up, and rotate at the foot and then reverse it. You may find that when you first start this move you might be wobbly trying to get off the floor. You can try lifting and just doing it this far until you feel comfortable enough that you are not going to fall and then you can lift it all the way up but to get good balance you really want to try to get that leg all the way up. This is something that if you practice it daily in just a few minutes if you are on the phone or anything else it is a move that will eventually come to you and it will greatly help your balance.
