Description

Modern bellydance is an amalgam of historical dance styles coming from both East and West. Bellydance is one of the most artistically-open and fastest-growing contemporary dance forms. It is popular on the club dance floors, featured in sexy music videos, and is a growing fitness trend. Bellydance is an amazing source of physical, social, and emotional benefits. It stimulates and heals the body, prompts weight loss, has a meditative effect on the mind, and lifts the spirit by enabling you to own your feminine power. Bellydance cultivates companionship among women, and helps us take a more confident and open stance toward the world. These unique benefits are making bellydance a modern lifestyle phenomenon – a way to find freedom from the ordinary and get in touch with your inner goddess! Combination Nation Vol 1: Belly Dance Instruction with America’s Hottest PerformersCombination Nation is an instructional dvd featuring dancers from all over the United States (and one from Canada). Each instructor shares her favorite, signature-style steps and combinations. Each combination is broken down facing a mirror, as it would be in an actual workshop or dance class. We then drill each sequence to music for several minutes to allow you plenty of time to pick it up. This DVD is extensively chaptered so that you can skip the explanations and continue on directly to the drills once you are familiar with the breakdowns. Some combinations are designed to literally fit the music to help you work on your timing and musical interpretation, while other combinations will work almost anywhere. Each combination has it’s own flavor, which is designed to increase your movement vocabulary and to expand your dance horizons! . Dancers featured: Ahava – Aradia – Bahaia – Lotus Niraja – Princess Farhana – Ruby – Shoshanna – Summer Sahar – Zafira
