5.0 out of 5 stars I personally enjoy this :->, May 3, 2008

This review is from: Dance Off the Inches: Fat Burning Belly Dance (DVD)

This is a perfectly timed workout (45 minutes all up) and it really gets your heart rate up. It's different to any other workout I own because it's a mix of belly dancing and Bollywood style dance. There is your basic ponies and grapvines, to sunbursts and shimmies. It's the first workout I've seen by this instructor, Kili Marti, but I found her to be friendly, and gave good instruction. The music is also what gives it perfect 'atmosphere' because it's Middle-Eastern so you feel very intune to the moves.
This isn't the kind of workout you'd want to solely rely on for big weight-loss, but it's fun and does get your heart rate up, so it's going to help you get fit and you'll definately have fun doing it.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Dug It!, July 8, 2008

First, I must point out that the title of this is misleading. Let's blame the title-maker. However, the description on the workout DVD cover is honest in that it mentions the workout is bellydance-inspired and features some Bollywood & aerobic dance moves. This is accurate. Unfortunately those who gave it bad online reviews seemed really focused on the title & felt it would be a true bellydance workout. Then, again there's very little bellydancing in the clip. Thus, many were disappointed when it wasn't solid bellydancing. So, I'm reviewing this based on the descriptions (more important than a title) and my own experience. First, my background to give you some perspective. I am at the advanced level in my fitness, am quite fit, can handle heavy weights, do high impact work regularly & swing a 20 lb kettle bell. I bought this specifically for those days when I need a less intense, low impact workout or a rest day. This was perfect. The music is great, Kili's instruction is flawless (to me), the creativity was up there and the combos seemed to get harder in intensity. In fact, while working out in my chilly living room, my sports bra & undies were soaked. I was stunned. My wish is that folks really pay attn to the descriptions & the clip instead of the title. If you're looking for an Eastern-inspired workout, this one is good. I actually like this one better than the other pure bellydance fitness and Bollywood DVDs I've had and given away. The only thing I would've loved to have seen is if Kili had woven all 3 combos together at the end & ran through them a couple of times. That would've been an exercise for the mind! This workout served its purpose with me.

I love this workout. This is not a hardcore workout like Taebo, Firm or Cathe. It is what it is.
Very well put together light workout. Great for those just starting out, or just getting back into workout from illness.
Very low impact & fun. Great for the days you don't want to take it all the way. If you liked the Hip Hop Dance of the inches I think you will like this one also.
