How To Do a Maya | Belly Dance Tutorials with Katie Alyce 

Hello everyone! Thank you for your requests so in today's beginners belly dance tutorial video we're going to be covering how to do a belly dance Maya!
To break the Maya down into manageable chunks, we need to first practise our hip slides and hip snaps.
See my video on How To Do a HIP SNAP here: • How To Do a Hip Snap |...
Once you feel confident with your hip snaps and hip slides, we combine them together to create the Maya! Squeeze the right hip up (whilst simultaneously pushing the left hip down) and slide the hip over to the right. Once the hip is out to the right push the right hip down, then, slide to the left and push the left hip down. continue this until the movement becomes smooth and rounded into a Maya! and remember to keep those heels on the ground :D
Practise along with me and you'll have your Maya mastered in no time! Subscribe to my channel to get your weekly belly dance tutorials, and leave me a comment to let me know how you're getting on with your belly dance practise and also let me know if there are any tutorials you'd like to see!
If you're a beginner at belly dancing, you may find the moves challenging at first but don't worry the more you practise the easier they'll get! Practise with this video a few times and before long you'll have you Mayas mastered. Now - find a space to dance, grab your favourite hip scarf, and lets get practising :)
