Bellydance - Tribal Fusion NYC (2007) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Good production. Good exercise session with challenging chest and torso (ondulation) moves.

Darshan teaches 3 combinations each with a different dance influence (tribal, world - samba etc.) in which she breaks down the moves involved.

Darshan then puts these moves togethet in a short and straighforward little dance combination which repeats itself automaticaly- that's a brilliant idea for those who might want to keep practising this routine for a while.

Darshan is graceful and teaches very well.

Only drawback: the background used during the dance combinations is a bit hard on the eyes.

The music is modern something or the other, not oriental. Darshan gives a lenghty solo permance at the end, which showcases her particular style of dance.

Overall, worth adding to one's collection of Tribal Styles.
