I have purchased a number of DVD's in recent years that supposedly provide full cardio bellydance workouts. Rania's videos are among the few I have found that truly sustain an aerobic pace in a dance-based workout, without the interruptions or slowdowns that happen when a lot of instruction is included. These videos also provide a good solid warm-up and cool-down.
Of course, less instruction means that the videos are more challenging for beginners. If you have experience in aerobics classes or with other forms of dance, however, you will be able to follow the basic movements, adding in more of the nuances each time you do the workout.
In these DVD's, Rania uses the classic layering approach of teaching the basic step, then adding on the hips and/or arms so that you don't have to try and master everything at once. This classic approach is used by dance instructors everywhere and-aside from doing monotonous drills of basic movements-there is really no other way to maintain an aerobic pace while learning and practicing a new step. Most students prefer this technique, because they want to experience the sensation of "dancing" rather than just repeating steps.
If you are looking for more thorough teaching of the basic steps, you should try one of the many bellydance instructional videos on the market. There are many high-quality DVD's created by instructors such as Jillina. It is also important to remember that there is no substitute for taking classes with a competent dance teacher.
If your interest in bellydance goes beyond just "having fun," if you think you may want to perform some day, and/or if you are concerned about avoiding injury, you should supplement your home workouts with lessons from a qualified teacher.
It is important to keep in mind that the difficulty level varies quite a bit among the four DVD's. Pure Sweat and Cardio Shimmy are much more challenging than Bellydance Boogie and Hip Hop Drop.
More experienced dancers can move on to Rania's more advanced workout DVD, My Personal Trainer. It includes the more challenging, faster-paced segments from these DVD's, plus some additional drills for specific parts of the body. There is more emphasis on complex movements, and the movements are not broken down. My Personal Trainer is a real bargain, since it provides 7 distinct workouts, with the option to create a large number of longer or shorter workouts.
Virtually everyone will enjoy watching Rania's performances at the end of each workout video. As a dancer, she lacks expression and seems more focused on remembering the next step than on feeling the rhythm of the music. However, she is still interesting to watch because she is a very technically proficient dancer and the choreography is unique.

I've lost 83lbs in the last 7months, but now my body is fighting losing the last 36lbs. Its' been suggested I add some cardio to my workout, so I thought bellydancing would be a fun way. I just did the 'cardio shimmy' what a blast! Rhania is awesome. I can't wait to try the others in this set; if they are as fun as the cardio shimmy I'm hooked!

Rania's tapes are a fun way to excercise. The belly dancing moves are a blast to try and master. By the time the DvD is done, I want to put in another one because the workouts are so entertaining. I don't even think about the sweat I'm building because I am enjoying myself.
I am looking forward to losing some more weight and surprising my boyfriend with a sexy little bellydance thanks to Rania.

Great set of dvds. Can go kind of fast on some stuff. Could use a little more instruction for routines. The dvds are fun and a cool way to lose weight.
