Product Description:
Sensual dance... you know it the moment you see it. It radiates from deep inside; the dancer s whole body flows like silk, her movements are beautifully interwoven, breathing with meaningful, effortless grace. The ability to move fluidly in this organic, connected way begins with an intuitive knowledge that arises when we are sensually awake.
Sensuality begins inside: It is your enjoyment of the world and your own physicality as perceived by your senses. Sensuality radiates outside: When your mind is receptive to physical pleasure, it translates your sensory experience into sensual movement, giving a fluid, languid, mesmerizing quality to your dance.
As a form of body language, dance speaks the truth of your thoughts and feelings. In bellydance, sensuality has always been one of the most highly prized qualities.

Sensuality is not a special talent or skill it is present in all of us. The task is to discover it, cultivate it, and translate it from an internal state to an expressive, easy-to-understand language of dance movement. In Sensual Bellydance, Blanca, a star bellydancer in New York City acclaimed for the languid, effortless, intoxicating quality of her dance style, shares her ways of expressing sensuality and of adding the flair of sensual grace and ease to every bellydance step - from basic to more evolved.
The core of the program is the Sensual Bellydance Flow [beginner-intermediate] - sequences of steps building from simple isolated moves to layered. 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: In sensual dance every movement is distinct and meaningful; every phrase has its highlight.This section offers the music only option you can follow Blanca s voice prompts, or enjoy the music-only 40-minute non-stop flow of dance combinations.
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! and enjoying yourself. This allows the gift of your dance to be experienced o

This is not a five star dvd I would have to agree with "Lenny" on that one.Mostly because it was boring. I do think there is a lot of content on the video but you have to want to watch it to figure it out and I didn't want to keep watching it. Which was a dissapointment with so many good reviews I thought for sure I was going to love this dvd.

Great instructional DVD...I order this along with Luscious - The Bellydance Workout for Beginners and the Sensual Bellydance is much better for see the movements...the instructor in the work for beginners dvd custom hide a lot of the movements. There are no Belly dancing classes offered in this area so the Sensual Bellydance DVD was a great intro for me.

This is a very nice product.She breaks down the dance nicely and it flows very easily.I have gone over it several times and hope to probably use it in future performances for a shorter solo.
Rating: - fantastic!
the DVD is fantastic. Blanca explains everything so you're not left wondering what she's doing or how she did it.All the movements are explained and shown. You see her full body so you can see the foot movements along with the arm movements. The pace is slow enough for beginners, yet everyone is able to go with it and not feel too slow.She demonstrates a movement and then builds on it so you're able to see how a whole dance routine can be created and put together. She has beautiful costumes and ... Read More

This video has a lot going for it, not the least of which was the price. It was much longer than anticipated. There's a long technique section, a warm up, a short-short shimmy section, and a choreography teaching section. And she repeats the entire choregraphy teaching twice with different camera angles. One shows what her hips and legs are doing and the other shows exactly what her arms are doing (Often skipped in other videos)
The Dances--She does the full dance you've learned ... Read More
