I definitely think it's possible to get a lot of value out of Suzanna Del Vecchio's video even if you don't know what the "obliques" (and other muscle names) are, but it would take a little more effort. Given your background in Western dance, you probably have a trained eye for recognizing what the body is doing, which will help you as well.
