Description:
In Blanca's Sensual Bellydance, you will discover how sensual dance radiates from deep inside you; how your whole body can flow like silk, and how your movements can be beautifully interwoven, breathing with meaningful, effortless grace.
The core of Blanca's program is the Sensual Bellydance Flow [beginner-intermediate].These are sequences of steps building from simple isolated moves to layered moves.Footwork, arm/hand patterns and head angles are gradually combined for the effect of total coordination and effortless control.
Sensuality is translated into dance through connectedness -- the wave-like echoing and interweaving of movements. A special section of sensual poses and fluid transitions is designed to improve your pacing.Slowing the pace into a still pose helps you to learn measured, uncluttered dance phrasing.This section offers a 40-minute music only option -- you can follow Blanca's voice prompts, or practice a non-stop flow ofcombinations with music-only.
In the Technique section Blanca offers a step-by-step breakdown of the movement vocabulary for the Flow and introduces her core method: Progressions --the gradual layering of bellydance moves on footwork with a special attention to body and head angles, arm positions, and patterns.
The last section includes a step-by-step breakdown, a demonstration, and two performances of Blanca's "Venus" choreography [intermediate] - a perfect opportunity to practice sensual bellydance!
Currently (June, 2008) and for more than eight months, this DVD, Blanca's Sensual Bellydancehas been the bestselling bellydance DVD among the more than 240 on sale at Amazon.com.

Let me say at the outset that I love this DVD.

[Blanca, this is a HINT!]
The only problem? I absolutely LOVE the song "Ifrit" to which Blanca performs the Venus choreography variation with floorwork. The song is credited ... Read More
Rating: - Wonderful attention to detail
The dancer in this video is very thorough in all details of her techniques, and brought a whole new dimension to my dancing, adding in many of her moves to enhance ones I already knew.Moderate level of difficulty I would say.
