Shakira takes dancing lesson

The Colombian hottie, Shakira, known for her hippy-hippy shakes, wanted to learn some Latin American dancing — the cha-cha and the samba in particular — and she did just that at 6 am on Monday, three hours before flying out of Mumbai!

Dance choreographer Sandip Soparrkar was requested to "update" her on some Latin American dance moves. "Since she had no time in her packed schedule on Sunday, she requested an half-an-hour dance lesson at 6 o'clock yesterday. And I was pleasantly shocked to find that she was dressed and ready, and had even done her warm-up before I came! That just shows her level of professionalism," says Sandip.

So, what did Shakira learn? "She knew the basic steps, but she wanted to learn some new moves. I showed her how to incorporate a mix of Latin American dances in her choreography," says Sandip. And did he get a tip or two about belly dancing? "I asked her to show me some moves, but she just laughed and said, 'I've not done Latin American dancing since so long, so no belly dancing in this session!'," laughs Sandip.
