I will start with my favorite one- NOURHAN SHARIF'S "RAQS ASSAYA".She is fantastic and dynamic and I love the way she breaks down the movements and I like her combinations as well.
I also have NOURHAN SHARIF'S "LAYALI YASMINA", but I don't like it so much, I simply don't like her interpretation to that music.
Then what I have and also don't like at all is RANIA "MODERN EGYPTIAN".It is just silly.She does choreo on Hakim's song, but it is.... .her arms are horrible!
I have "ULTIMATE COMBINATIONS 1&2" and I like those two very much and I find them very useful, especially No2 where u can see Aziza's beautiful performance.
I shouldn't forget to mention "VEIL WITH AZIZA".This one is fantastic.Aziza is gorgeous, elegant and great teacher and I think that this DVD is very helpful even for those who are not going to some school.
"JILLINA 1" is also very good, with great combinations.I like it very much.
"HEARTBEAT OF BELLY DANCE with JENNA" is great.She does great combinations for three drum solos, as I remember.
"THE ART OF DRUM SOLO" with SONIA & ISSAM is also great.They explain rhytms and all combinations very slowly and it isn't difficult to learn it at all.
"DRUM SOLO WITH SADIE" has a great drum solo piece and she breaks down so many wonderful combinations.It is definitely for advanced level and I just LOVE it.
"1001 SHIMMIES..." with LEYLA JOUVANNA is one of the DVD's that I don't like so much, simply cause there is so many things that I don't find useful at all.I know that many of those shimmies I am never going to use.I heard great comments about this DVD and I respect Leyla's work, but this DVD I just don't like.
"FLOORWORK WITH ANAHEED" is a great DVD.Eventhough I will probably never do a floorwork, I just admire this DVD project.It is great!!!
"VEENA & NEENA - MYSTIC DANCE" is very sweet and great for the begginer's veil technique and has some useful combinations.
