This captivating video introduces as well as proceeds the process of bellydancing. It's exciting dances mesmerize my complete and undoubted attention as the world of beauty, dance, and peace unfolds. It energizes and stimulates my curiousuty to bellydance. Amira Mor is gorgeous, her costumes are profoundly breathtaking in a spiral of colors and shine. The choreography holds this spell of interest almost as if I was ingulfed into a chant of happiness and miracle. The energy is absolutely moving and it is a 100% must see.

I thoroughly enjoyed this performance video. Being a dancer, myself, I purchase many belly dance videos and was very pleased with this offering from Amira Mor. Her dancing is spectacular and she is quite stunning. I would love to see more videos from her, including a teaching video. She has a style that is exciting to watch and should be shared.

OK, lets cut to the chase. There is no one correct type of belly dance. I enjoyed this video. She is an in your face dancer that grabs you and does not let go. If you think her costumes are skimpy, check out some Turkish dance costumes sometimes. If you want to sit and pick a performance apart you can find things wrong with any dancer. But I have seem some technically correct dancers that were boring and who did not connect with their audiences. Ms. Mor connects like you were watching her in person.

Amira Mor is a very good dancer, truly beautiful. I found her costuming a little more revealing than what is usually seen in the USA but I have seen far more revealing costumes on some Mid Eastern dancers. I really liked this video, good dancing, great costume and performance ideals.

BOOM! In your face, stunning, sexy, seductive, energizing, inspiring, simply irresistible in every way. You can see the passion in her eyes while she captivates the whole audience just by using her body language. After you watch this video, your heart will be pumping, she makes you want to get up and dance. Who holds all of these characteristics, no one else but Amira Mor in this video, "Behind the veil"
Amira Mor's dance has the prefect recipe of fusion which adds excitement to this ancient art of belly dance. I completely love it. I recommend it to any one who wants to watch a truly remarkable, UNFORGETIBLE dancer.

This is not a video for serious dancers. It features seconds-long snippets of sultry performances edited together to make one dance routine. Beautiful but comically revealing costumes.

Bellydancing is not about making love to the camera, covering up a lack of real talent by acting like a stripper. Bellydancing is all about about ART. Unfortunately, there is no art present with Amira Mor. What Amira does on her video any untrained lady can easily do, there is no art to be found.

I ordered this video in the hopes of watching authentic, professional Middle Eastern bellydancing. Instead what I got was a video of a woman acting in poor taste devoid of any real bellydancing technique, training or understanding of my culture and of the this very delicate art form.

The editing was choppy, and it contains so much fluff and no beautiful bellydancing. I am very dissapointed with Amira Mor, her lack of talent, dance skill and video production.

Do yourselves a big favor and order professionall videos and DVD by real bellydancers...this is all gingerbread and no substance.

Thank you,

I love watching this tape and honestly I could watch it over and over! It's just beautiful. The only thing that I really don't like too much is the over~usage of slow motion by the editor! But I think that's minor compared to her beautiful dancing not to mention the lovely costumes and body! She is talented!

Amira Mor, Is a very beautiful "Authentic Looking Belly Dancer" Shes Middle Eastern, Black Hair & Curvy. Not only does she possess Belly Dancing Talent but she has the Hips that every woman should have if she is Belly Dancing for pay! She is not a Stiff Dancer like Most dancers that just because they took a few classes, jump on to the stage and call them selfs "Belly Dancers" Um, NO! I myself have been Dancing and studding the Dance and culture for 20yrs now, I also Dance Ballet, Flamenco & Afro Brazilian Samba. And I still won't call my self a "Pro-Belly Dancer"...I can, but I don't, because I do not Dance for a living. People, encluding my self, Pay Some real Good Money To see a Great "Middle Eastern Authentic Dance Performance". And I should add a "Good Looking, Beautiful, Sexy, Voluptuous Woman" who actully has Hips and who can captivate anyone with those Gypsy eyes. Its what a good Belly Dance Show is all about...Its called "Cabaret Belly Dance". I spent 6yrs in the Middle East Studding Dance And Culture. This Is where "Belly Dance" comes from...maybe many of you need to remember where it comes from and what the "Real Belly Dancers" Look like. Educate your selfs on the Dance and Culture and even visit The Middle East/Cairo on your next vacation and Please Do your self a favor and Visit A Belly Dance Cabaret. And when you do...you will never see any "American Belly Dancer" the Same Again...in fact you will be highly disapionted in most of their performances and Dance styles! I only have a few Favorite that can and do come close to the Performers in the east, "Amira Mor", "Suzanna Del Vecchio", "Fahtiem", "Jillina", "Princess Farhana" & "Ansuya". I will pay top dollar to watch them perform anytime! This video is great! Amira Mor is super! her costumes and dance styles are fantastic! I am a Super Dance Critic...everywhere I go I am Watching! And so far, nothing really that great! Today everyone wants to be a "BELLY DANCER!" Please if you take a few years of classes with Fahtiem, Ansuya or who ever...you are not a "Belly-Dancer" It takes more than that! It takes Years, Passion for the Performing Arts, And Real Talent is a gift from God...some are Born with it...And sorry, others just wish they had it. Remember, Any type of stage performance takes a lot of hard work!...Passion & Charisma not just you wanting stage attention. Well Perhaps I am Being a bit harsh, and I do apologize for the harshness...but I am very sick and tired of paying for cheap non talented wanna be Dancer freak shows!(Dark Cabaret?) What Is That!? And The "Cairo-Carnival!" WOW! Its more like Cairo-Circus! What a Big Fat Joke!! Many of my Middle Eastern Friends and their families are highly insulted with the yearly event. This in no way does it represent the people of the "Middle Easten Culture" in anyway...that is simply a traveling freak show for "Flower Powered Hippies" I'm Sorry, but its true! But, we are in the great U.S of A! (Big Smile)
Anyway, I really do like Amira Mor's Dance Performance in this Video. It takes me back to Cairo nights at the Cabaret! And yes!...This is what a true Belly Dance Cabaret Show looks like. And for the person who said that, Amira Mor looked like she was making love to the Camera, Wow! You need to really lay off the Dirty Movies. get out more and go watch some real Belly Dancers! It will change your way of seeing things in that kind of way. I give Amira Mor My Respects and she truly is a Beautiful Sensual Passionate Dancer. I am giving her a rating of A perfect 10+ Thank God we still have some good true talented Dancers out there! (Smile).

In my opinion Amira Mor is an awesome belly dancer. I not have only watched her videos but also have been taking classes with her for the past 2 years. I have tried a lot of workshops with different teachers and Amira is absolutely the best. I highly recommend buying her videos since they are all exceptional.
