A compilation/ cardio workout November 14, 2006 Seir (USA) 8 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is a cardio workout from a physical trainer/bellydancer using bellydance as the fundamentals.The warm up segment is pilates and not too complicated. The 4 level breathing technique is interesting and taught well.Some yoga poses are included. Undulating traveling steps were fun to do. Some steps as the Turkish 2 step are repeated too much. Cool down seems a bit too much like a second workout. The studio setting is good, the trainer pleasant just a bit unconnected with her viewer- moving too fast appearing more like a physical trainer than a dancer, but then is that so bad for a cardio workout? Overall this seems to be a compilation of bellydance,pilates, yoga. There is a nice performance at the end by the trainer herself. The music is great by Gypsy Caravan, Jehan, Knossos.
Okay for a decent sweat, but not the greatest January 9, 2007 Dee Tee (Norwich, CT) 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
After taking a belly dancing class at my gym I decided to purchase this DVD. It claimed to give a good cardio workout (which is what I was looking for). Although it did make me work up a bit of a sweat (a 5-6 on a scale of 1-10), I found it to be a bit boring and thought that the instructor was going a bit too fast after showing the "steps" only a couple of time. I have used the DVD only twice and honestly doubt that I will use it again. There was no nice background or others participating in the DVD and I would not recommend this. I would rather go to my gym and have others around which make it fun (even if you do not know all the steps), it's all about the moving and keeping up a cardio routine, and since I was bored with one woman just belly dancing and hearing her monotonous tone (and everything she was saying had been pre-recorded so she was dancing and her lips were not moving.... too wierd).
Fun fast workout August 27, 2008 A. Aragon (Albuquerque) Being relatively new to belly dancing I found some of the moves a bit hard to follow and was not sure if I was using correct form. I did have fun at first and think it was a wonderful workout but towards the end I had a hard time catching up with Melissa as I was concentrating on the moves rather then the pace she was going. I will use this workout again but not until I have a understanding of the dance itself with some more practice using a beginning belly dance DVDs.
