Bellydance Pop & Lock - Tribal Fusion Hip-Hop

Very challenging but I think she is an excellent teacher and easy to follow. I don't recommend for absolute beginners. You need a foundation on the basics of belly dance before this video if you want to learn her technique...Absolutely worth your money and time if you are wanting to change up your performance. To my surprise, she teaches floating technique and moon walking with layering. Non stop drilling. I think the choreography is awesome. Something different from what I'm use to.

At last ... a DVD which makes it EASY to learn the moves by drilling them in an intelligent order. YAY! The drills are just right - not too fast, not too slow. Clear & to the point instructions ... no endless yakking. This DVD shines simply by avoiding the pitfalls which make so many dance DVDs annoying. I purchased Elisheva Pop & Lock as a companion DVD for Anasma's Liquid Fusion. Anasma is the superior artist, but her material is very advanced. Elisheva drills the material which was most difficult in Liquid Fusion. This DVD is advanced beginner - intermediate level. If you already know dance basics and want to learn "modern fusion" style, this DVD is perfect. Alas, I could only give 4 stars. Elisheva is a fantastic teacher, but if you want good choreography you have to buy Anasma's Liquid Fusion. If you can afford it, I recommend to purchase both. Drill with Eisheva but learn choreography from Anasma. Happy Dancing!

😳😬 not sure what to say except look elsewhere. This teacher seems very jolty in movements instead of fluid. Looks like a lot of whiplash like movements.. popping etc should be fluid and graceful unfortunately this teacher doesn’t teach that😳 it looks like you’re being taught to be shocked and scared in your dance expressions instead of graceful fluid expressions. Wish I could get a refund, I suggest just exploring YouTube lol

This is a great technique DVD, it's not a weight loss or beginners DVD. It has some cute combos, and a pretty good warm up and conditioning section as well as fantastic breakdowns of the moves. This wouldn't be great for a really new dancer, but someone with some past experience/instruction would do great. I love the camel moonwalk.

she helps you get to/and do the good stuff without a lot of talking!!! but still with clear, patient explanations. i consider myself an advanced beginner and the dvd is definitely improving my dance and improvisation. highly recommended, you won't be sorry if you want to learn this style of belly dance.

My experience with this program was terrific! I enjoyed learning the elements of "pop" "and lock" and all its variations from this program. I have been intensely working on the choreography which is so much fun. The entire contents, background music, the choreography selection, and the combinations that make up this fabulous modern fusion were very well detailed and brought forth. This instructor welcomes the viewer with confidence and an impressive background in dance, quickly drawing the viewer in. The lesson plan is superbly planned out. The menu options are usuer friendly and will direct you exactly where you are in the program. To begin: Intense Yoga warm-up with sun salutations Level one technique: prepares the upper body with chest pops, circles shoulder locks, broken snake arms, liquid style arms and hands Some of the lower body movements include piston hip locks, abdomen tucks and release, pelvic squares, downward mayas, etc. Level two is quite simply a challenging belly dance buffet. Delicious moves such as: arm waves, snake arms, shoulder locks, variations of chest circles, chest pops, upper body undulations garnished and layered on chest shimmies, very challenging but lovely!!! The lower body isolations in this section are layered on hip shimmies such as: omi circles, figure of 8's, pelvic squares, piston hips abdominal tucks and releases; then upper body isolations are layered on hip shimmies! The drill section is awesome, continuous and directed at the muscle groups that must respond to the choreography to come. The footwork is next, "floats" such as "zig zag", and "moonwalk". Plenty of repetitions and well broken down for ease of learning and yes get ready to layer upper and body moves as well. Upon viewing the choreography demonstration, I couldn't wait to join in. The music is "CHA CHA" by Baltan Beat Box, it is upbeat and modern and there are about nine combinations to learn. It is totally realistic and attainable as it is perfectly exemplified. The entry level dancer may find this program difficult. The pops and locks are intense..I felt the warm up is very disciplined and I mentally prepared myself for it. At a time, I felt as I was in belly dance boot camp? I felt that I left a yoga class and stepped into Pilates, and finally belly dance. HOWEVER......being a serious dancer, I am familiar with the discipline required to prepare the body for the intense moves and layering, at the same time improving precision. Good things don't always come easy. Because I mostly seek programs that are deeply rooted in the basics, the rewards from this program are bountiful. This great technique elaborates the basics, transtions into advanced moves and the choreography adds the finesse.

Tribal Fusion Pop & Lock I expected better music, costumes, backgrounds and choreography. Was disappointed in all the above, I wasted my money on this one, but like the other 3 bellydance dvd's by other dancers that I bought.

I appreciated the breakdown on arm movements as well as some of the layering exercises, but I generally found the choreography to be a little simplistic. If you already have a strong foundation of belly dance I would recommend skipping this DVD, but if you're a beginner student and looking for something to help you practice between classes, it won't hurt.

I have been belly dancing for years and if you are looking to incorporate new moves, this is right for you. I don't think this DVD is aimed at beginners, so if you are intermediate/advance level go ahead and buy it.

ベリーダンス1年半の中級レベルの者です。今まではオリエンタル・ダンス系をずっとしていました。トライバルのダークな感じがあまり好きではなかったのですが、手の動きなど魅力的なところもあるので、こちらのＤＶＤを購入しました。 実際ＤＶＤの先生をみて、あまりにステキなので感動してしまいました。キレがあって、しなやかで、すごくカッコいいです。 ＤＶＤのレベルは初級者用ですが、初めてのトライバルなので、すごくやりがいがありました。トライバル系をもういくつかされている方には不要かもしれません。（ただし、先生の動きはすばらしいので一見の価値があります。） ウォーム・アップは基本のヨガの動きを何度か繰り返します。筋トレもあり、翌日見事に筋肉痛になりました。 トライバル特有の動き方をレベル1、レベル2にわけてひとつひとつ指導してくれます。踊りは１つです。 トライバルといえば、体の柔軟性を要求されるのですが、このＤＶＤに限って言えば、体の固い人でも大丈夫です！柔軟性はそんなにいりません。

Marvellous Very interesting Instructive Pedagogique A good video to learn tribal fusion It's a real pleasure to learn with this video

Dvd complet, pédagogique, détaillé. Les chapitres sont bien organisés. Les mouvements sont bien décomposés et la chorégraphie est super. A conseiller.
