Android Goddess: Tribal Fusion Belly Dance, Robotic Movement, Waving & Popping Styles, with Fayzah. Dance instruction in bellydance and hip-hop: A complete how-to for the robot dancer



Is it worth it?
Welcome, In the welcome section Fayzah is giving you an overview of what the dvd is about.She talks about the two different concepts she has Android and goddess.
Warm-up and strengthening, I feel as it some of the movements could have been slower, some of them just moved way to fast.I liked this warm-up it was not a yoga warm-up or yoga inspired warm-up like you see on most dvd's.Some yoga was used but not an extremely long section dedicated to it.Like you would see in serpentine or other fusion dvd's. The movements are movements you would likely see in a regular class setting. I do not think this warm-up was beginner friendly. posture on how to do these movements are not carefully explained. Lunges and squats are used and careful explanation on the lunges should have been given but were not.On another note if you workout regularly or dance regularly these movements will not be new or difficult.

Nice for your fusion
I found the warm-up a little too rushed, but younger dancers won't have a problem with it. This has a good intro to hip hop. You need to have a little bit of belly dance under your belt to go through this smoothly, so having the basics down will help you out a lot. I have to mention that I am very glad that not all belly dance videos are geared toward beginners. We need lots more geared toward intermediate and advanced. If you like fusion, perhaps this is your next step up from being a beginner. Happy dancing!

Not your average belly dance DVD, and that is just fine!
This was a pretty awesome DVD. Fayzah is very talented and I love the solo she does at the end. This is not your typical Belly dance DVD because she combines elements of hip hop. I did not purchase this DVD to practice purely belly dance, I wanted something different to spice up my routines. I got exactly what I wanted and more because I can even use some of these moves outside of a belly dance setting such as a club.
