Princess Farhana rocks!,
By Stephanie Cake (Baltimore, Hon!) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hot Moves For Cool Chicks- A Burlesque Workout (DVD)
I will agree with some of the reviewers - this is not a workout video. But I'm glad. I have no interest in workout videos. If I want to work out I'll go the gym.
I purchased this DVD on a recommendation and I wasn't disappointed! Admittedly, the production quality isn't great but really, since I doubt mainstream Hollywood is going to step up, I have to give the Princess kudos. This is a great introduction to the world of burlesque and Princess Farhana is a delightful teacher. I only wish I lived in LA so I could check out some of her performances and classes there. As for the reviewers who called the Princess "scary," "unprofessional," and a "man in drag"... I'm baffled. Princess Farhana is a beautiful woman who comes across with a wonderful personality. She is also a internationally reknowned bellydancer who has taught dance for years and written extensively on the subjects of bellydance and burlesque. If you're interested in learning about burlesque there are lots of great resources due to the popularity of neo-burlesque and the burlesque revival. This video is definitely one of the must-haves!

Hot moves, but not a "workout",
This review is from: Hot Moves For Cool Chicks- A Burlesque Workout (DVD)
This is a great instructional video but it really can't be classified as a "burlesque workout". The movements demonstrated are informative for developing a routine but if you are looking for a workout, this probably won't be it, primarily due to the order of presentation. There is good information on costumes, stage personas, even picking a name - but the poor production quality lowered my rating to a 4. Get this if you want to develop a burlesque dance routine but look elsewhere for calorie burning.

Wonderful Tips,
By
This review is from: Hot Moves For Cool Chicks- A Burlesque Workout (DVD)
If you're looking for a dvd that will guide you to that inner diva, then this is the one to buy! I was really very surprised by the information/tips given in this dvd on make-up, clothing removal, costumes, pasties, poses, etc... (don't want to give everything away)
Very clear instruction is given on how to do basic striptease moves and the final routine will have you looking and feeling like a very special diva! Hint: You'll need a big boa and sequined lingerie to look the part, girlfriend! I only wish the combinations had been separated from the tips on other things in this dvd. I tended to get a bit caught up in the tips, then I'd forget the striptease move that was taught. This dvd could have used some better organization! The bonus material which gives a brief history of burlesque, tassel twirling instruction, Velvet Hammer Preview and Farhana's live performance of the routine presented are all excellent! The routine that is taught is actually repeated 3 different times and the music is so very sexy!! So find some heels, boa and glittery lingerie and shake what yo' mama gave you so you can enjoy this dvd!
