Summary: Fun and an excellent workout
Review: As with all of their other works, Neena and Veena deliver a fun workout that is also great for the beginning dancer. The Slim Down video does just what is says, and helps to improve stamina. A must for any bellydance collection

Summary: I AM THIN AND BELLY BEAUTIFUL!
Review: I HIGHLY recomend Veena and Neena's "slim down". When I started this program it was in December of 2002. I was 60 pounds overweight and becoming deeply depressed because of it. I actually picked up Veena and Neena's "fat burning" VHS tape and having enjoyed the tape so much I bought "slim down" soon after. As soon as I started "slim down" I enjoyed it even more than "fat burning" and stuck with it. At first I started out small and did the tape once or twice a week. Febuary I started doing it at least three times a week. I lost 15 pounds before April. Starting in May I switched to a Low carb diet, cut out sugar drinks and drank LOTS of water. I kept up my workout ritual with the belly-twins and did the video four to five times a week. Between April and August I've lost about 35 pounds. A total of 50 lbs! I've gained beautiful muscle, I'm toned and I've only got a short way to go till I reach my goal weight! Veena and Neena's program has inspired me to take bellydancing classes. This DVD is a work out video (not a dance instruction video) and it will take a little time to learn the moves. Learning the moves doesn't take away from the intensity of the workout though. As soon as you familiarize yourself with the moves I promise you'll love it! If you want to learn the dance itself I suggest Veena and Neena's other DVD's and tapes "Mystic Dance" "basic dance" and "beyond basic dance". The workout videos do however use bellydance moves for the workout. I own all their programs and out of all of them "slim down" has helped me the most.

Summary: LOVE IT!
Review: I love this DVD! It does give you a workout. I have the Twins Basic Dance Video so I knew how to do some of the moves. The moves are easy enough so that someone who has never done bellydance before can catch on. The sound is great, video quality is really good. It even has some footage of Marina dancing. She is not as good as the twins but it helps you to see dancing in action. The twins have done a great job. They are both very beautiful & elegant.

Summary: Great DVD's
Review: I really enjoy the Belly Dance Workouts. I highly Recommend this one as well as the other two DVD's by the same artist.

Summary: WHAT A WORKOUT!
Review: I totally liked this workout better than the "fat burning" tape. It's easier to keep up unlike the other one it was hard to keep going because you're out of breath in midpoint of the workout. This one is easier on the feet too. You will have fun doing this workout because you almost feel like you're dancing along with them and you won't believe how much you have sweated after this workout. You won't be disappointed!

Summary: A refreshing change from other workouts
Review: I used to be a competitive runner, but over the past few years I've grown less active, and am kept quite busy with work. So I picked up this video to keep me motivated to work out when I'm at home and don't have that much time. It definitely made me break a sweat (and I'm still in decently good shape), and the rhythm and music made the workout a lot more fun than tae bo and other workout videos I have in my collection-- I actually did this work out for a few days in a row without having to cycle it with other routines because it was fun to do. So I give it four stars. I would not give it five stars, however, because I felt it was rather short (around twenty minutes) and I did not find it as strenuous as I had hoped-- and since I don't have much time to spend on working out, I think every minute counts! This dance would be challenging for someone who is just starting to get back into shape, or someone who is in decent shape, but I would not recommend it for athletes or those who are experienced exercisers (I suppose that's why it says bellydance fitness for beginners), because it's moderately difficult but nowhere near as strenuous as tae bo advanced or even a quick jog around the park.

Summary: Not my favorite video
Review: I was very excited to get this video because I thought it would be so much fun. I was disappointed that neither Neena nor Veena say anything. There is a narrator that tells you what moves to do. This drove me crazy!! The girls are just dancing and smiling. You can turn the narrator off, so after you get the moves down, you can just workout to the music. It was a good workout though.

Summary: It's not what I expected
Review: I've heard great things about this video, but my goal is really to learn to bellydance and this video is just a workout that uses a lot of bounces and hip drops. It's not a choreographed dance that you can learn to do. It's just a workout. Don't get me wrong... it's a good workout. I might do this before another tape or something to warm up and get the blood flowing :)

Summary: So fun!
Review: Ok, so I was skeptical as to whether or not I would like this workout DVD. I was pleasantly suprised. It was so different from my usual work outs that I found myself having fun (mostly laughing at myself). The steps are simple, though for the coordination-deficients out there (me), you may have to pause the video once in a while to practice the move before continuing. Sometimes the camera does closeups at inopportune moments -- this causes you to see only the hip movements, but not the foot placement, for example. That can get annoying. I was a little dissapointed that the "trailers" did not have videos from Neena and Veena's series. Instead it was for some other woman. Also, they weren't really trailers but segments from those workouts. This was sort of nice because it gives you an idea what the "flavor" of the workout will be, I assume. In short, after trying this video, I definately intend on buying other Neena and Veena workouts to spice up my usual work out home routine! By the way... I don't mean to be crass, but I suggest wearing a heavy duty sports bra for the well endowed. The workout requires a lot of bouncing.

Summary: Great aerobic workout !
Review: Once again, the belly dancing twins have put together another excellent workout video, third in the DVD series. I also like this one better than the Fat Burning workout...much easier on the legs. If you want to do workouts, have fun and learn the basic moves of belly dancing, get this one and the twins' other two DVDs. These are much better than the Goddess Workout ones.
