Artistic stripping! But where's the sexiness?,
By Jenifer M (Orange County, CA, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Art of Exotic Dancing: Striptease Series - Dances Moves and Floor Work (Exotic Dancing) (DVD)
This is a very useful instructional video for those women aspiring to become professional strippers.
Fawnia is an excellent teacher. And this disc demonstrates how to move and look artistic while covering a lot of (dance floor) area -- when lying on the ground - and how to gracefully transition from standing to sitting and back again. If you've ever taken dance lessons previously - the footwork will feel strangely familiar. Fawnia teaches us (or reminds us of) some of the basic step combinations. She then adds simple hand gestures - or a shoulder turn - to make the movements even more enticing. Later in the video she demonstrates how to fall to the floor very gracefully. (Think freestyle gymnastics and you'll get the picture.) Once there, she then displays how to prop one's torso upright with one hand - so that your pretty limbs are up in the air drawing attention (much like the above-the-water leg actions found in synchronized swimming). As a contrast, if you've ever been to an `amateur night' competition - when new girls audition - the lack of graceful locomotion is sometimes painfully apparent. (Some of these women might've benefited - from watching this video first!) To recap, Fawnia's dance lessons are undoubtedly good. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of actual `stripping' on this disc. For that, you'll have to get her episode on "Lap dancing and Entertaining Your Man" - where all of the disrobing is un-covered. (Get it?) Since my personal goal was to create a little routine to use at home, this disc did teach me how to add style - while traipsing around the room. But info on when, where, and how to disrobe, unfortunately - was unabashedly absent! Also missing were some actual or finished strip performances (also found on `Lap Dancing') which would've made the video a lot more entertaining - and a lot sexier -- in case my husband wanted to watch! (Hey, it never hurts to preheat the oven.) But thinking in terms of effect - what's really absent from this video is a little "raunchiness." My frame of reference (for stripping), like many of us, comes from the local strip clubs I've visited - where patrons sit immediately around the edges of the dance floor. Everyone's hope, of course, is to receive some `special attention' from the dancer - such as being enticed directly with a specific portion of her body - especially "you know where" - in exchange for tips generously given. Unfortunately, Fawnia's instruction appears to be preparing us to compete (on stage) -- in those artistic (nude) dance competitions she's won in her past - rather than to replicate the uninhibited sexiness one sees closer to home in much more intimate settings. It's those `nastiest' of movements that are missing from this video - which are the ones I really want to incorporate into my own private show! To conclude, this video is great for learning to move gracefully. But being `raunchy' - is a lesson you'll have to garner on your own!

Visual Learner,
By Princess (Aurora, Missouri United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Art of Exotic Dancing: Striptease Series - Dances Moves and Floor Work (Exotic Dancing) (DVD)
Fawnia says it herself. "If you're a visual learner this video will be a lot of help to make you a very successful entertainer." And that's probably the real problem with this video. There's little explanation of how best to do the move. When teaching the hand on butt move, she doesn't even start at a sideway's angle so that you can see where her hand is. And once she finally took it at a sideways angle she was going into an entirely new move.
I have to say a lot of Fawnia's outfits during the travelling sections were so gaudy they were annoying. Definitely a distraction from trying to watch her feet move.

ehh...she knows how to work a pole though!,
By Lo "LoCFo22" (TN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Art of Exotic Dancing: Striptease Series - Dances Moves and Floor Work (Exotic Dancing) (DVD)
Way better than the lap dance dvd, at least they are clothed (in some RE-DONK-U-LOUS costumes..NOT HOT!) and definitely teaches you how to move on the floor. Some of the little dances are straight up 80s like the little hop and tap thing that gets you across stage, I am sorry but I won't be caught doing that...I pretty much just fast-fowarded the DVD which is cheaply set up in like a Fetish store so its almost like a home video...learned a little but not enough to buy it again!
