3.0 out of 5 stars veil???, Sep 11 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Sensual Art of Bellydance: Mystic Dance (VHS Tape)

Although I have enjoyed all their other bellydance videos I was extremely disappointed with this one. The veil work they had was almost non-existent. They only showed the very very basic.."i did it in kindergarten with my blankie" kind of moves. On the other hand they did some very nice arms if you are looking for some different hand/arm positions.

All in all, the first two in this series were wonderful, this one should be redone.

if you dont have accesss to a professional teacher in your area, then you may want to try these series of tapes. They are very good quality as mentioned by several other people here. Of course yo dont have the one on one intruction as given by a live person, but they are definatly a step in the right direction.

I think this is a wonderful video. It is not meant as a stand alone but as an in addition to. And i think it works very well in that context. Neena and Veena's videos are great for those of us who just love a bellydance workout. I do not aspire to be a belly dancer but I love the relaxation and variety it brings to my workouts. It feels feminine and graceful. I like how accessable N and V make belly dancing. Guess I too am a Neena and Veena groupie too!
