Welcome to Belly Dance Arms & Posture, a practice for carriage, coiling and serpentine stylization. This practice was designed to be used in conjunction with your regular dance practice to increase strength, flexibility and the illusion of bonelessness in the upper body. The practice has 5 parts: Gentle stretching to relax and prepare the body for movement, Dance movement preparation to strengthen the legs, An intense shoulder series with both strengthening and stretching segments to prepare for serpentine arm movements, A short combination to illustrate the use of arms in dance and with torso movement and layering, Finishing poses to relax the spine and prepare you to re-enter your day.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Incredible for even advanced dancers... Comment: This is a great tutorial. I've had back problems for quite a few years, and I was delighted to see the yoga and hardcore exercises packed into this video. I can't say it completely healed up my back, but I can tell the muscles are so much stronger, and I can hold correct posture for much longer without pain.
More importantly to most dancers, arms and posture are the biggest things so many dancers ignore or forget. If you don't have this skill set, you're going to look like a beginner for certain! Plus, the way she goes through how to do serpentine movements is so thoroughly broken down - even though I've been a tribal dancer for years, I learned so much.
Rachel deserves her fame - she's brilliant at what she does. Buy this product!!! It's so worth it.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Good not only for dancers Comment: I am new to belly dancing, but not new to dance. This DVD makes a lot of sense; starting with build up the strength,great exercise stretching the muscles.Rachel Brice doesn't promise quick results, but mentions the necessity of consistent practice.And I see the exercises are great for me: they relax muscles when I am tired after computer work, or after driving on those horribly congested Southern Californian freeways. I would recommend this DVD not only to people who want to learn belly dancing, but also those who would like to add creativity to their daily stretches.I found the interview not too interesting, but the added bonus for me was Rachel Brice's performance, and what a dancing goddess is she!
Customer Rating:      Summary: She's one of the best, for a reason. Comment: This video only furthers my love of everything Rachel. She talks to you like a competent, equal, friend. Stays focused and keeps the mood steady. She is so fluid that she makes everything look so easy, even when its not, but that is extra motivation that it CAN be done, I am just not at that level yet. LOVE the video, Rachel kicks butt. Only wish she had MORE instructional videos out there...
Customer Rating:      Summary: AWESOME...but OUCH! Comment: This video is awesome from the very beginning..not to mention the performance and interview at the end are just phenominal. I took her advice and bought some wrist weights to do this DVD with..and that is definitely a MUST. Once you do the dvd a couple of times and get used to the movement..add the 1lbs wrist weights one set at a time..as if to add jewelry. It hurts..but I've never seen my shoulder muscles work so good! Excellent video for tribal dancers.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Rachel Brice rocks Comment: I cannot believe how amazing Rachel Brice is! Definitely a must for any bellydancer who wants to improve her overall performance. Beautiful arms are for everyone!
