I bought this to replace another copy that my nephew destroyed. I waited so long to look for another copy and am so glad to have found it. This is one of my favorite workouts. It is not very strenuous so I like to do it at the end of the day followed by Tai Chi and bed. It's great for releasing tension in your neck and shoulders and always leaves me with a fluid and sexy feeling. Very empowering. My favorite part is the Goddess walk (at least that's what I call it) when Dolfina instructs you to "do it with attitude...it's like saying aren't I fabulous?" Some reveiwers commented on not being able to see what she's doing because of the camera angeles. I have taken a belly dance course in the past so this was not an issue for me. But I find that even if you didn't have prior knowledge if you watch the workout once first you can figure it out. She also gives you instructions all throughout so listening to what she's saying is also helpful. I also recommend the Neena and Veena series of bellydance workouts.

This was my first belly dance tape. I practiced to her calming, clear instruction. When I entered a class, I found far more experienced dancers than I could not do the slow moves she presents so well here. They create limberness in muscle groups that other exercise forms do not address. These are the sensuous moves that are signature to belly dance.

...how annoying I found Dolphina and her video. And now that I've sampled other DVD instruction by professional dancers, I can see I was correct in thinking she was all about trying to look sultry and alluring and not so much about teaching the dance. Granted, back then I couldn't make it through the arms section, but that's because they're my weakest area and she did them to death.

My experience with this video made me check reviews before making a purchase because I didn't want to make the same mistake twice. And I didn't. If you're interested in belly dance taught methodically and well, I would suggest looking into New York World Dance's DVDs and videos. One of the DVDs I own, "Love Potion," includes an instructional section, a practice flow, the workout dance using the moves learned before, and an extra choreographed dance at the end. With the workout and practice flow, that's 90 minutes.
