East Coast Tribal bellydance blends sensual, fluid movement with sharp percussive accents evoking the flair of urban modernity. It resonates with exotic echoes of the world's ancient dances and bears a touch of the dark cyber-age mystique.
The East Coast Tribal Bellydance instructional and muscle-conditioning program is designed by Sera, an acclaimed performer of Tribal fusion bellydance, and sought-after instructor with a superb systematic and effective teaching method. Sera's primary form of creative expression is through Tribal styles of belly dance. Her movements are rooted in Tribal Fusion Bellydance, drawing from ballet, modern, jazz, hip-hop, and ATS (American Tribal Style) to make the blend she calls East Coast Tribal.
Sera's Warmup and Drills programs combine fluid movements and percussive hipwork of bellydance in a way that promotes muscle strength, tone and elongation - the basis for a beautiful body line and effortless grace, both in dance and in everyday life. These sections will take you though series of upper and lower body isolations, help you ingrain in your muscle memory the precision of bellydance technique, and develop muscle control that will convert into a mesmerizing fluid dance as you are learning the East Coast Tribal combinations.
The step-by-step instructional section breaks down essential bellydance movements and assembles them into 6 combinations. The combinations can be practiced and performed individually or as a whole. They come together into a seamless choreographed sequence with a wonderful flow of energy and an amazing expressivity.

Summary: I love this DVD~
Comment: although i thought it was going to be slow and moody, it was quite different from classical oriental bellydance, it was fun and made for an extremely well workout!@

Summary: Awesome Tribal Dance AND Workout!!!
Comment: This DVD really does the trick. She explains all the moves fully and breaks them down evenly. I got through the warm up and the first combination that she breaks down for the dance you perform later on and WOW! This isn't like ordinary belly dance. She has all the muscles moving all at once and boy do they MOVE! I feel my legs and my abs afterwards. Not only do you learn a cool new form of dance, but you're getting a workout at the same time!

Summary: really fun video but maybe it's not great for total beginners
Comment: I am a total beginner and I'm attempting to teach myself. I have never taken a belly dance class from a live instructor. I was actually going through the video right now and am pausing to write this review. All of the women in this video are wearing pants that cover their feet. I keep having to stop and rewind in order to squint at the knee and feet positions. I'm watching this on a laptop at full screen so maybe I just need a larger image. Sera does explain what she's doing as she's doing it however I'm a visual learner and would rather just have a better view of what she's doing. Other then that the video is really fun. Maybe it's just not meant for total beginners. I'm certainly sweating much more than I expected, which is a good thing.

Summary: Give Tribal a Try
Comment: The jury is still out on whether or not I like tribal style bellydance but the instruction on this DVD is excellent.
As an intermediate dancer, I liked it. (I probably would have found this just challenging enough as a beginner.) The instructor does a longish warm up and stretch that she manages to combine with learning some of the upperbody ribcage circles and waves that you'll use later. The hipwork section is long enough for people in so-so to decent shape to get in a bit of a work out--not much, but some. The choreography she teaches is a decent length and it's broken down well.
All in all there isn't a boring moment on this DVD. I feel like I was learning something or shapening something up each time I play it. I love it---and I don't love tribal style that much, so that's saying something.
