### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great for beginners- hard!
  

*by A***. on Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2024*

I’m a total beginner for reference. I found this to be doable but challenging because it works muscles in ways I'm not used to using them! I enjoy the instructor as well, though i get where other reviewers said she is not used to talking to a camera. Don’t hate on her for this, it gets better and I found it to be endearing. She is human! One move I struggled with was moving from shoulder shimmy to chest shimmy. I have a lot to work with there but this has always been a hard move for me, even in western dance. Not sure why. I look forward to gaining strength and muscle memory overtime to get these moves down. I do recommend a mirror or another person, so you can tell if you are doing it right or not because if like me you are new to it you will not be able to tell but feel with every move.

I have zero dance experience and have tried several other belly dance DVDs that are helpful, but quickly go on to the next dance movement. Unfortunately, I can’t keep up.This instructor really takes her time on each movement. She’s very easy to follow. This is something I will stick with.

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2012*

Leila is sensible in how she introduces movements.  I'm impressed by how much teaching comes on one DVD, particularly for the price.  The basic movement sections are each 15-30 minutes of learning.  For instance one is basic arm moves at 30 mins, another basic hip circles, another hip shimmies, etc.  Although she does sometimes say a movement is sensual or flirty, it is not a really sexualized DVD as it appears some of them are.  That combined with the fact that she's neither a stick figure nor hyper-busty and takes some time to mention how different figures can be a plus in the moves all mean that this might actually be a nice esteem-boosting get-to-know-your-body activity for teenage girls.  I like that some of the movements emphasize releasing your belly in pelvic tilts, as I grew up always sucking mine in to the detriment of my health.  The mindset behind belly dancing is a healthy one.I have some serious illnesses and am very limited in how much I can exercise and what kind of exercise I can do.  I'm finding bellydance to be a relatively gentle body-toning exercise that still challenges me on multiple levels, is interesting, and is good for me.  Of course, once you really know the moves (and if you have a lot of coordination and energy) you could pick up the pace and make it aerobic.  I find it interesting that a lot of the arm movements are similar to things I used to naturally do when I danced in Christian worship (an old hobby of mine).I haven't progressed beyond the basic movements, as I still don't have the hang of a few of those.  The thing I miss the most so far is having a a little warm up and warm down to loosen up after practice.  The most she does is have you lift your arms and breathe in at the end of a segment.  But you will definitely want to do something more extensive.  Additionally, the shimmy she teaches (the Egyptian shimmy) is the very hardest shimmy, and she immediately moves into layering it.  Granted, she is largely teaching Egyptian dance, but the hip shimmy can be viewed as the basis for the straighter-knee Egyptian shimmy and as a much more intuitive starting place.  I don't know about other people, but I still can't pull the Egyptian shimmy off much less layer it b/c I lock my knees shortly after breaking into this high speed straight knee shimmy.  I can only do it for tiny spurts.  It makes sense that she isn't teaching the choo choo shimmy or pharoanic arms and so forth (she is focusing on the most common moves), but with shimmies I think you really need to start elsewhere or at least give a lot more instruction as to how exactly we are supposed to keep our knees loose (usually she gives plenty of instruction, it seems, but I'm just not getting this one).Prior to purchasing this video, I viewed a lot of teachers on youtube.  I also rented some of Veena and Neena's CDs which I generally do not recommend for learning dance as opposed to getting a little toning (they do not really teach technique so that it would be very easy to hurt yourself and develop bad habits; they also have floor or aerobic sessions included that would be terrible for most peoples' backs or knees and have nothing to do with the dance).  Finally, I bought an old production that someone else swore by that was mostly useless and had really garish costumes.  I do wish there were more conformity between the names of movements in belly dancing.  For instance, I did peek ahead at her integrated moves and note that what she calls the egyptian walk is nothing like what two other videos I was using call the egyptian walk.
