Summary: Good, but...
Comment: I love Rachel Brice, so it's hard to only give her 4 stars.
These are drills, as stated, and they are good drills. Practicing this DVD regularly has helped my control as a dancer. I have two complaints.
1.) There is only 40 minutes of instruction, not 78. Both the 15 minute practice and the 30 minute practice contain the same moves as the 40 minute practice. They are recorded end to end, 15 min., 30 min, 40 min, and her performance at the end, to equal 78 minutes.
2.) This doesn't contain much of Rachel Brice's signature dance style. This is a foundation DVD. It will help you build up to the amazing control that Rachel Brice has. This will not teach you her moves, but this will help you do basic moves with wonderful precision, power, and poise, like Rachel Brice.
Honestly, if I didn't feel that the repetition of the moves in the 3 practices was so cheap, I would give her 5 stars. This is a really good DVD for honing your skills as a dancer.

Summary: Great for Beginners/Intermediates
Comment: I love Rachel Brice - she is one of my favorite bellydancers. This video is great, but wasn't really ideal for me personally. I'm not a huge Yoga fan (way too impatient!) and a lot of time is devoted to that. The drills and isolations are awesome and I frequently use this DVD as a reference because Rachel does a great job explaining everything. I have been bellydancing for about 2 1/2 years and I teach a beginner bellydance class, so for me this DVD was too basic. If you are a beginner/intermediate this would be a great addition to your collection! If you are advanced, I would say rent it first before you buy it.

Summary: alright, but...
Comment: Ok, I have mixed emotions about this dvd. I love that you can choose which work out to do depending on how much time you have or what you're up to doing, I have yet to come across another dvd that does that. However, there is a LOT of yoga and I get bored of it easily, but it's good for me so I shouldn't complain. The lack of moves covered is also an issue and the thing that bugs the heck out of me is that everything she does seems to be arrhythmic like they added in the drum beat with the voice over. Overall it's an alright dvd but I believe there are much better out there that I would rather spend my money on.

Summary: It works for me : )
Comment: I love the 15, 30 or 45 minute options. There is a lot of yoga but then again... the lady loves yoga and it's her DVD and thats what she wanted to put on it so everyone should quite whinning. Yoga is good for you, anyone who dances should know that. It's not an overwhelming DVD but it covers very important things that do need practiced often. I'm happy with my purchase.

Summary: More advertisment, less video.
Comment: First off I should say that I absolutely LOVED the video. I loved how it started off with the Yoga to stretch you out..and then works on the drills - which always gets me wanting to dance. I love the way it's got different workout times as well. But, my only problem with this video...On the back of the dvd case..it says 3/4 shimmy preparation and Maya and Taxim..and it didn't cover either one. It was no where on the dvd. I also didn't like the fact that they have locks on the down on the 30 minute workout and not on the 45...what gives? Did they not pay attention when they made the dvd? Either way..it's great for isolation drills...I've notice a HUGE difference in my dancing and it definitely helped me out. Great video! (Although I wish there was a little less yoga and more on the drills.
