Instant Bellydancer 1: A Crash Course in Belly Dance
The production was cheesey. The moves were stiff. The background and costumes were bad. And I just can’t warm up to Neon. I was severely disappointed in this video.

This may work for a older heavy lady to loose some weight. Very interesting.

I have never taken Bellydance before, so perhaps i am not the most informed person to give a review on a Bellydancing lesson, but I think this is a fun workout that doesn’t make you feel like you are ‘working out’ and along the way, you learn some Bellydancing. Have recommended it to friends…

A friend and I had been wanting to learn to Belly dance for quite a while so we researched just about every video out there. We decided on this one due to good ratings and because it was more for beginners. I have to say that the DVD is what it claims to be, it just wasn’t exactly what WE thought it was going to be. Here are the pro and cons.
PROS:
-There are many basic moves that just about anyone can learn
-There are 2D and 3D shapes on the screen so you can better understand and visualize the movements. Very helpful feature!
-There are combinations repeatedly which helps with putting different moves together and form a routine/dance.
-It is long, so you get lots for you money!
CONS:
-Some of the moves do not have enough explanation/visual time. The more complex moves get the same amount of introduction as the basic circles so you can’t get the movement down in that little bit of exposure, even with rewinding it over and over again. A different camera angle or something may have helped.
-Combinations presented before some dance moves were explained enough.
-I was looking to find something FUN and something that I could add to my freestyle dance to mix things up a bit when I was out and this is a very slow type of belly dance; traditional perhaps? Nothing I could really use in freestyle unfortunately
-The black background makes somethings hard to really see, and also makes some of the moves look totally computer generated.
Overall, I would say it is an average instructional DVD. Nothing super spectacular but adequate. Better for someone looking for traditional belly dance moves and combinations.
