 A Different ApproachAug 13, 2007
By Eureka Girl
"Eureka Girl"
I've done the Carmen Elektra stuff, and pretty much got what I expected, but when I did this one, I was really surprised by the shift in perspective. Being sexy isn't about impressing a partner with moves -- it's about being in touch with yourself and your sensual nature, and reveling in that. Hemalayaa is an excellent guide! I had tried her Bollywood Workout and had a lot of fun with it. Her DVDs just keep getting better!

I almost walked away from this oneSep 15, 2007
By S. Pernsley
"Ameretat"
I have to admit that I first sneered when I saw this and then I thought "why not?". I am glad that I purchased this. It's a me video. Not a perform become a bellydance star video. I enjoyed just doing some of the sitting down workouts. I did it even at work. The music is relaxing. And Hemalayaa's words of believing yourself and dancing the way you feel and showing how you can more was beautiful and even easy for a beginner. I am glad I didn't walk away from this DVD. It will be cherished in my collection and I look forward to getting another DVD with Hemalayaa.

a sublime, exotic, beautiful gift for women and their menJan 05, 2008
By Heather Ferris
Hemalayaa has given women all over the world an incredible gift in this video. It is like no other video out there. So many of us in our day to day work have lost our luscious sensuality. It makes you feel so good. This video is absolutely gorgeous, the filming, the details, the music, and the reference to our human spirit. I think all women should be given this as a gift. My sister loved it too. There certainly is nothing else like it right now in the U.S.

 Fun, sensual - but a little too slowJan 30, 2010
By Jenny G
There are sections to this DVD, however, it really feels as if it is meant to be used as a whole. I do think maybe if I were to do it again, I might skip the first section, though, as the whole DVD seemed to build a little too slow for me. I understood that it was a slow dance, but just a little faster build might be better.
I did enjoy the DVD, though, and several times found I had a small smile on my face. The main reasons I only scored a three is the slow build and the fact that I probably wouldn't use the DVD frequently. However, if you have some quiet "me" time and want to relax and feel seductive, this would be a good option.
SECTIONS:
Invocation: Heart Awareness (6 minutes) -
quiet meditation to set the mood
Open the Neck and the Eyes (13 minutes) -
Gentle neck rolls and stretches, followed by eye movements. Then the start of some gentle dancing cat pose varations, including some nice arm circles
The Offering (9 minutes) -
Gentle, seductive, rolling on the floor, cobra, dancing legs while lying on the back. Builds into the next section, adding some arm movements.
Seduction with the Arms (8 minutes) -
Arm movements, floor dancing, various seductive poses remaining on the floor
Standing Moves (6 minutes) -
Slowly coming to standing, and gentle dancing
Circle, Sway, & Focus ( 7 minutes)
Dancing adding hip movements and sways.

Fun and empowering, but not a workoutDec 03, 2007
By Elizabeth M
I love Hemalayaa's other DVDs. Yoga, Bollywood, I have them all. My instinct when I see she's come out with something new is to scoop it up quickly. This video, however, was a bit disappointing. It'd make a great workshop, as the moves are designed to celebrate and make you feel good about your body, and I feel like that'd be even more powerful in a group setting. The moves are even kind of fun to do. However, they mostly entail writhing around on the floor, and while it was somewhat relaxing, I didn't get much of a workout out of it. I was hoping that I could do some sensual dance, not take myself too seriously, but also get in my exercise for the day. Not so. There's a bunch of instruction in here about working your gaze, and then most of the rest is learning to move slowly and deliberately, in a flowing way. I must say, had I made up a sensual dance by myself, it would have included all of these elements :) There wasn't anything surprising about the routine.
I love watching Hemalayaa (she really is beautiful), but even the bonus dance routine she did was a little tedious. I'm hoping she'll release another yoga DVD soon.
