"I feel women of all ages, shapes, and sizes will feel good about themselves dancing with this video."

Theresa Vangeli Belly Dance Instructor / Open Doors Bookstore

"What a wonderful gift ... with which we can begin to explore both our sacred and sensual roots in the privacy of our own homes! Imagine a group of women friends gathering together, using this video as their guide, dancing goddess imageries which express our inner truths and journeys! Imagine what might come of loving ourselves and each other in this powerful way!"

Mariah Williams Integrative Bodywork Practitioner Peace and Healing Bodyworks Liberty, Maine

"Here's a great new video that you can watch if you're a beginner dancer that wants to learn the basic concepts of belly dance, a more advanced beginner who wants to work on her isolations, or any dancer that just wants one of those "feel good" moments in her day!"

I bought this video to suppliment a bellydancing class I am taking. Although it did help me understand all the horizontal and vertical circles the body can make, overall it was VERY BASIC and VERY SLOW. The dancers themselves are great and you do get to see a pretty dance in the bonus features. But if you're looking for a workout or any really flashy moves, don't buy this video!

4Good quality instructionApr 17, 2008
I really wish I had had this DVD when I started dancing. The instruction is clear, with an emphasis on proper (and safe) dance posture. For a beginner, I think that is absolutely the most important thing, especially if you aren't able to take actual classes as well. For more advanced dancers, this can serve as a good review of the basics.

There are a couple of downsides: there is a warm up but no cooldown, although the choreography that ends the video is probably slow enough to serve as a cooldown on its own. Also, this is an instructional video, not a workout, and will probably not get your heart rate up much if you are already in shape; so if you are looking for more of a workout rather than instruction, this is probably not the video for you. The thing that I think would be most frustrating to a beginner is that while they teach isolations very well, that is *all* they teach on this video--no travel steps at all, so if you are depending solely on this video to learn to belly dance, you will end up dancing in place!

If you get this DVD (and I definitely do recommend it for beginners), be sure to check out the "Special Performance" in the extras; it is a nice performance and includes sword as well as floor work and belly work.

This is a great DVD for anyone to use while learning belly dance. The video is well thought out and put together. I recommend it for all my belly dance students. Diosa
