Summary: Queen of Flowers review by Lady Beth 10/19/2004
Review: You will love this Queen of Flowers DVD by Neon if you have not worked with balancing a tray on your head before, OR if you are looking to do something surprising for your teacher, friends, and the community. Three full choreographies to learn, and artistically adapt for parties, birthdays, shows, and more for all levels of dance. Choreography is broken down into small groups of moves and than repeated to make sure you go over what you learned. Neon does this throughout the entire DVD, so be sure you are comfortable going over your moves several times. I had trouble putting on my veil on time to repeat the routine from the beginning to the point in the routine we stopped at. It got annoying, but Neon explained that it is important to go over certain moves to make sure you do not have accidents while you are dancing. Good point! Subtitled "Logistics" is the section where Neon talks to you herself and goes over some of the things you will need before learning the choreographies. She talks about how to pick a tray, and not to use adhesives as it takes away from the performance. To balance the tray yourself and to do it honestly is the best trick. She goes over how to do flower arrangements, and a lot more information that was informative. Neon is a refreshing Belly Dancer to have in our community. All levels of dancers will learn new tricks, or moves from Neon as she is amazing! Total running time is 1 hr. 30 min. Great explanation of moves and excellent quality DVD. Shows movements both front and back at the same time.
