5.0 out of 5 stars I Love This Workout!, Jun 14 2004

This is a great workout. It's great for people who bellydance, but are not at performance level. I go to a class once a week and I've noticed my shimmies have improved. The moves are not that varied, but it's a great way to practice and it's a really great workout. You'll be drenched when you're done. It's worth a try.

I enjoyed the workout, it's challenging yet doable. Especially after watching some other artists, I find Rania's instruction style easygoing and clear. Music and other minor quibbles that I've read, I don't really care about. As the title says, this is a fitness routine. I find that any video/dvd workouts get repetitive over time, which why I turn the monitor off and get to the studio/ class or go running. This one, however, has enough to keep me occupied and sweating for a long time.

4.0 out of 5 stars belly sweaty, May 7 2004

This review is from: Bellydance Fitness:Cardio (DVD)

I have been belly dancing for less than a year now. I have the twins(Veena and Neena)dvd's and tapes and I really enjoy them. To keep an open mind to other styles that bellydancers have, I was searching for other workout/instructional dvd's. I saw Rania on the belly dance superstars tape. I was amazed at her belly rolls. I decided to purchase the cardio shimmy.But before I purchased it, I wanted to read the reviews to see what others thought of it. I read the reviews on Amazon and saw that there were alot of negative reviews and only one positve. I did the work out and I thought it was great. I think that if you want to pursue bellydancing further such as teaching or performing, that this is not only a good workout tape but, can help a begginer master shimmies and choo-choo's as well.Heck,I didn't even know the term choo-choo until I purchased the dvd. As for the music,I enjoyed it.

I noticed a lot of comments about the bad music. I guess I just tuned it out because I didn't notice it one way or the other! Read more
