Summary: Whatever it Takes!
Review: I say, "Girl, do whatever it takes!"

If this dancing video gets you or your man hot, then go for it.

If it's a more "direct" video like "New Free Sex" or "New Sex Now" then
I say go for that then!

Maybe he wants to hear you sing a siren's song, in which
case "Voice Lessons to Go" may be your CD?

Just go for it!

Summary: I loved this DVD!!
Review: After years of marriage, stages of motherhood and the inevitability of age,I bought this DVD and began to believe I was still pretty sexy! Society makes us believe we need to "tone down" our sensuality, once we reach a certain age. This DVD proves we don't have to "tone down", unless we want to!!

The instructional part is very easy to follow. Basic moves that are possible even for those of us who are less than graceful. I was amazed at how fast I learned the moves!! They are such fun!! I have noticed my abs and thighs are toning up too! That is a winning combination right there!!

The women in the DVD are real women, not young, perfect girls. I was not intimidated, I was inspired. I learned the moves and have tried changing the way I approach things (not just dancing) in my life. This DVD actually goes beyond the exotic dancing moves and encourages self confidence and self belief. I absolutely loved it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not for dancing but for self confidence
Review: Although this video will not teach advanced exotic dancing technique, it is a valuable tool for teaching self confidence. Too many women today suffer from low self esteem because we feel that we are just not "good" enough. This video can help to change that in a fun way. Again, for someone seriously interested in dancing, this is not the way to go, but it is certainly a valuable tape.

Summary: Awesome! I finally feel sexy!!
Review: I agree completely with the reviewer that said this DVD was a Godsend. I have always wanted to dance and be sexy, but never felt that I could, never had someone who would show me the moves and always felt like such a klutz that I wouldn't even try to dance when I was alone!

I got this video because my husband suggested it. He thinks I'm a goddess and even after 6 years can't understand my hesitations to try to be sexy and my fears that he would laugh at me if I tried. I popped this DVD in when I was home alone and just went with the flow. It was great seeing "real" people of all ages learning along with me. I practiced the moves and couldn't believe it, but I actually felt sexy and knew I looked good doing the striptease, even while learning!

If you are already a confident person who dances with ease, this isn't for you. BUT, if you feel like you look silly or have two left feet and can't dance, THIS IS FOR YOU!! You'll be glad you got it. It really isn't hard, it's just a matter of being shown step by step. It really works!!! I will repeat what the other reviewer said - Thank you for making this DVD for women like me, who needed something supportive and not intimidating!!!!

Summary: exotic dancing ???
Review: I did not like the dance moves on this dvd at all! The dance moves were very boring. It basicly teaches you how to walk sexy and how to have a sexy attitude. It didn't really teach any dancing. It only teaches you a few moves that just about anybody can do. If you don't have a clue on how to act sexy, this dvd is for you. But, if you are wanting to learn some sexy dance moves, this might not be the dvd for you. The dance instucter does give clear and easy to understand advice and instructions. The picture quality is good too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome, just awesome
Review: I loved this video. Will learn it more to become more comfortable with my own body. Very good instructions

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Worst Video Ever
Review: I regret buying this video. It does not really teach you anything. This video looks more like a documentary b/c throughout the video you only see people talking about themselves and their problems. The instructor keeps repeating stuff so by the end of the workout, you only learn how to do a hip circle. Don't waste your money on this video.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fascinating and educational!
Review: I thought I would learn a lot more, and possibly get some exercise - I did learn some moves, but that's really not what this tape is about. It reminds me of a TLC or Discovery program! The narration is terrific and the way it is filmed is very educational. The commentary from the women taking the class is really interesting; they show you a woman performing the moves just perfectly and then show her saying how difficult it was for her, physically or emotionally. Really eye-opening stuff.

By the way, you WILL also learn sexy moves that will make your husband or boyfriend (or girlfriend!) DROOL!!!

Summary: It's okaaay
Review: If you have no clue what to do or how to get started, then this is an okay video. It takes you through some "basic" steps to get you started, you know....how to stand, walk, attitude, get down on the floor from a standing postion, you know stuff like that. Then once you get "the ideal" you can go from there. You will probally want to order other videos to still help, but this one was like a "starter" course for me.

Summary: Unique but not special...
Review: Last year a group of us ended up in a strip club on Burbon Street in New Orleans. I admit I was uncomfortable but at the same time I was impressed by the relaxed sensual movements of the dancers. When I saw a DVD was available on exotic dancing I couldn't resist buying it to see if I too could learn the moves.
"The Art of Exotic Dancing" is a great idea! To teach women how to get in touch with their sensuality through exotic dancing. That is what this DVD sets out to do. And it succeeds to some extant but could be better.
In the DVD a 40 something grandmother/exotic dancer shows a group of women how to move sensually. The students then try the move, translating it with their body. Everyone will do it a little differently.
The moves are easy to learn. There are a just a few of them including hip rolls and walking. Though the movements are simple you realize how just a little different motion in your ocean can make your body so much more appealing.
This is not an exercise workout. You will not feel the burn or get an aerobic workout. You will simply learn how to walk and move your body in a sexier fashion.
Personally I did not feel the movements went into enough depth. More movements would have been better. Despite that the few movements taught were interesting.
The biggest drawback to the DVD in my opinion was the clothing worn. The leader who has a very shapely body, wears a white grandma bra when she demonstrates some of the moves and an unflattering hankerchief top for other moves. For one scene she wears an ugly oversized man's shirt. Now come on..seduction can include what you wear. A crisp white mans shirt, a sexy top does not have to be sleezy to inspire. I must say that the one gal in Burbon Street "Rain" who got me thinking about how I moved wore a black, mesh top with minute sized flowers on it. Paired with 10 inch heels of course. She was very cute and not sleezy at all.
Bottomline the video gets a few good points for teaching sensuous moves but I have to deduct several stars because just some simple things, more moves and better clothing would have made it so much better.
