Time graph for BellyDance Hipper than Hip

True bellydance moves in a fast-paced, genuinely “aerobic,” workout. The fat-burning never stops because this program never slows the tempo to “break down” the patterns. At non-stop pace, you’ll do moves like hip drops and shimmies, camels and pivots — motions that work your abs as they raise your heart rate. It’s a smooth-flowing progression — seven add-on combinations that end in a full dance sequence. Raina just “cues as she goes” so previous bellydance experience is recommended (but you can also watch the 10-minute tutorial, or click the “help” icon within the workout to show an immediate explanation of that combo). Instrumental Middle-Eastern music. ©2008. DVD has: Chapter menus, Wide screen.

Reading a Time Graph

Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.

Chapter menus

You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).

Wide screen

The program fully fills a wide-screen television screen. Note: These videos will display black bars at the top and bottom on a traditional 4 x 3 ratio TV screen.

Level

Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact

Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography

Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Floor aerobics

Definition: Fast-paced standing movements like marching, walking, dancing and jumping. Requires no equipment.
