Editorial Review:Product Description:Bellydance is an amazing art and one of the world's oldest fitness disciplines. Bellydance emphasizes movements of the abdomen and pelvis and is an ideal way to develop deep abdominal core strength. Passed down from mother to daughter this ancient celebratory dance became the traditional method for imparting body awareness techniques of posture and movement both natural and beneficial to the female body as well as preparation for and recovery from childbirth.In our age of sedentary lifestyles and stress-induced back pain the bellydance fitness program developed by New York dancer and dance movement researcher Ayshe will help you regain and maintain abdominal core awareness and strength an important step toward healthy and graceful posture back pain relief and safer ways to move your body.Bellydance Core Fitness Workout flows from a warmup and isolations that engage your core muscles to dance combinations and a beautiful dance routine.Every movement in the workout has a name that can be referenced in the tutorial section where each is carefully explained. The tutorial section contains a 1 hour 40 min. in-depth presentation by Ayshe explaining the roles of the core muscles in the anatomy of dance movement and their impact on our health and postural habits.In this program we focus on the abdominal core muscles that span the lower spine pelvis and legs. Of main importance are the psoas and iliacus (iliopsoas) the key muscles for structural balance in the human body. The balanced fully-functional psoas is crucial for women's health. If the psoas is in a state of contraction or atrophy it will affect the reproductive system by restricting blood supply and disrupting the positioning of the organs within the pelvis. Menstrual cramping is often caused by the psoas exerting pressure on the reproductive organs when they are in a state of tenderness. A healthy released psoas will bring relief from cramping and lower back pain.System Requirements:Run Time: 9

O.k., so, I've been trying to teach myself bellydance. The thing is, there are a lot of fun DVD's out there where you can follow along, but, really, you have no idea what the heck you're doing.
For absolute beginners in Classical Egyptian Bellydance, Ayshe is the best teacher for specific technique of any of the World Dance teachers. The best. The best I have seen on any of my other bellydance DVD's from other companies.
I could not figure out which muscles to use when ...

This dvd is very thorough. Ayshe, the instructor, takes you through all the kinesiology of the movements so you know exactly what you're supposed to be doing. The dance workouts are fun and challenging. I believe this is good for anyone who'd like to jump into a class and know a little before starting, or for someone wanting to learn the dances in the privacy of their own home. It's also a great workout.

Content-wise: This is fantastic. I'm not going into that. It just is.
However, I have to give this a 3-star rating. The ding comes from the fact that too many of the moves require more space than I have ever had in any apartment I have ever lived in with the exception of the point in time I had no furniture. My ability to do the moves properly impacted my workout. She is a fantastic instructor, but she has a studio, and doesn't have to worry about space. Most people will be doing this ...

This is one of the best tutorials I have seen. I would take a half star off for Ayshe being too long-winded in explaining how to correctly perform the moves without injuring yourself. She is very detailed and obviously very knowledgable. You will learn how to execute the moves correctly and you won't find that in the majority of bellydance DVDs. If you do not have access to a live teacher, this is a must have for the lone learner. There are some good DVDs out there, but if you can only afford a few, ...
