This is the second video in the Sensual Art Of Bellydance series. This video is a little more advanced but not too difficult. Some of the moves are intemediate but a lot of them are still begginer moves. I think most intermediate dancers will find that they are quite familiar with the contents and beginners should be able to follow along without to much trouble. I think the video is of good quality and has been well produced. They have a beautiful backround that's not too distracting and the sound and video editing are done seamlessly. It's also among the more affordable videos out there. They demonstrate the moves pretty well, however, they don't mention where the weight is most of the time. I liked that they do teach a choreography yet, I was a little dissapointed that it wasn't to a whole song but just a piece of a song. I found the choreograpy a little hard to follow at first, simply because they don't count it out for you. However, if you either count it out for yourself first or dance it several times with the video the you should be able to get it fairly quikly. Overall, I would recomend this video to anyone looking for a beginner to intermediate video.
