Fun, but needs more instructions!
Review date: 2008-08-05 Rating: 6 out of 10

I got this, expecting more of a workout than a bellydance routine, and that's what it is. It's fun, as a workout, but I do have a few gripes, particularly as those who don't exercise and / or bellydance previously may find themselves at sea (or worse, at risk!)
1. How to do belly dance moves isn't really explained, and being fairly new to it, I spent some time working out which knee should be straight, which bent
2. In the toning and conditioning sections, they rarely tell you which muscles you should be feeling the effort in, and sometime only give you a rep or two beforemoving on
3. Some of the moves are just silly to give to people who are looking for exercise with a belly dance flavour... has anyone out their managed to sustain a shimmy for as long as they want, or indeed at all while trying to turn a circle on your toes?????

Good for beginners
Review date: 2008-03-26 Rating: 6 out of 10

I liked the way they show the movements. It is very clear. I just found that the workout becomes boring after doing it many times. I would have liked if it led to a coreography at the end. Still a good workout for beginners.

Good choice for ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS!

This workout is good for people who haven't excersized before, or are out of shape and looking for a slow approach for getting back into it. Make no mistakes, if the moves shown in the dvd are carried out properly, you should build up a sweat, so it is by no means a slow workout. This dvd is excellent for learning basic bellydance moves, with good instructions from Neena and Veena. If you want something more advanced, join up with a local bellydancing class.

the fantastic two

I was a bit wary of this when I ordered it because im not really into workout dvds but its impossible to know what a dvd is like when you order and you dont find out youve wasted your money until youve played it and then your stuck with it but in this instance I figured 'just suck it and see'...and this one really surprised me, I was glad I gave it a chance. It is fantastic, a real workout with warm up and cool down with all the beginner belly moves you could want to start off with-and boy do I need beginners moves!They are explained clearly and demonstrated enthusiastically . I also love the way you get to see both twins at the same time whilst one is in close up at the front and the other is at the back showing full leg moves etc which you dont always get to see on other belly dvd close ups. Their performance at the end is absolutely spectacular! I ended up just watching them dance over and over the first time, very insipirational - I just wish all belly dvds could be this good and then I wouldnt be so nervous about spending hard earned cash on them. Recommended.

Too mainstream for my liking
Review date: 2008-02-26 Rating: 2 out of 10

I got this DVD and was really excited to get it and then I tried the program and I was very disappointed. I felt that Neena and Veena in a sense sold their souls because they were trying to act like the instructors that you see on mainstream fitness videos, and you can clearly see that just isn't how they are. I got this video because I have their Bellydance for Fitness Basic Moves program, and I like it very much! This program was not fun at all for me. I thought after the first time that I would at least watch it without trying to do it and see if I felt any differently (a couple of months later) as I really wanted to give it an honest chance. I ended up stopping the DVD, and immediately listing it on Amazon. It sold (thank goodness) and so I don't have to look at it anymore. Now I hesitate to try any of their other programs for fear that they are along the lines of this one. If you like mainstream aerobics instructors then THIS is the program for you. If you are trying to get away from that, and you want something more 'alternative' then I don't recommend this one at all.
