nothing fancy, April 3 2006

This review is from: Kelli Marie Presents Bellydance (DVD)
This is a very basic video without a lot of fancy camerawork. Kelli Marie and her assistants seem very natural and sweet. They do a good job demonstrating the moves that are the foundation of all bellydance.
The production seems kinda low budget though. If you like your videos to have really flattering lighting and your hosts to have fashion stylists and great camera make up, this isn't for you. If you prefer a very natural look, and have no previous bellydance experience (including other basic videos) then you might like it. If you've watched any other basic video you will be bored because they all share the same basic moves.

Finally a bellydancer that understands that size 4 is not the norm, Mar 10 2006

I love this video. True basically what she is teaching you can find with various good teachers. She explains things throughly and clear. The set is wonderfully decorated but the most wonderful thing about this is that she has backup assistants who are the average size of at home dancers. It made me for more comfortable and not wishing that I could be that size but oh so that's how that move looks on me. Thank you, Kelli Marie.

Kelli is an amazing instructor and has so much to offer for beginners in her instructional DVD. I bought the DVD while I was taking a classic Egyptian style bellydance class and used it to practice the basic movements in between my classes. I felt I improved my movements much faster than the other women in the class because of this.
If you are looking to learn advanced belly dance techniques you should consider attending a class or hiring a personal instructor to work one-on-one with you.
If you are a beginner wanting to learn some beautiful belly dance movements while improving your abdominal strength, this is a wonderful DVD for you. It's worth every cent!
