Fluid Transitions: Drills and Combinations for Fusion Bellydance

Complete
This is more a review of my partner, because I got the DVD for her, but she hasn't stopped talking about. Apparently this is the quintessential modern-day bellydance oracle. As far as I can tell, it seems fine, although I haven't watched it 2 dozen times like she has. So, for what its worth, I thought that my partner's fondness(obsession) of this DVD is noteworthy, plus I feel like a champ because I found it. Bonus: wife's moves "totally transformed"

Great DVD for intermediate/advanced level
I highly recommend this DVD for any intermediate/advanced fusion bellydancer wanting to learn new combos or just looking to practice smoothing out their dance moves. After a warm-up and some isolation drills, the DVD takes you through 6 different combos then a cool down. Combos 1-4 are drilled separately at first then combined for additional practice. Combos 5 and 6 each have a simplified and a more complex version of themselves so you can practice at whichever level you are comfortable.

She explains each drill step-by-step while showing what it looks like from different angles, making it easy to follow along and understand. You practice each combo multiple times (each direction), gradually speeding it up each time, making ample practice time for each combo. There is also an option to choose between 4 different condensed practices so that if you don't have time to do the whole DVD you can split it up. You can also easily pick any one of the different isolation drills or...

The best instructional video I have ever purchased......and I have bought very many!
Ms. Beaman broke the transitions down from top to bottom giving drills and starting at a very slow pace to a full on combination. I rememered everything after the very first session watching the video because she made sure that we were comfortable with each combo until moving on. This video is perfect for begginers to more advanced to absolute professionals. I hope that in the future Ms. Beaman continues to make more videos. I have taken her classes and workshops and she is nothing short of amazing! Her video portrayed how amazing she is at teaching and dancing as well. Not only did I learn amazing combinations It was a wonderful workout and I felt great after. There is not enought I can say to portray how absolutely amazing she is. I would urge anyone to buy this video!!!!!
