"It was a very big thing in Germany, belly dancing," she continued. "It was more of a, like, mom thing, not so much kids, but I guess because, you know, my mom maybe didn't have the means to … have a nanny or someone. So, a lot of times she brought me along, and then I started belly dancing with my mom at the class."
The former Victoria’s Secret model described the flashy belly dancing outfits she used to wear and noted the costumes accentuated the intricate movements.

"You wear special clothes for it," Klum added. "You have, like, a belt that kind of shimmies and it … makes a sound … when you … do certain things with your hips. It really … triggers off all the bells and the charms to make sounds. … You have … fabric from your head going to your fingertips."
