i asked my trainer and he basically agreed with lauren.

he did say that the weight belt can be very good for strengthening "belly dance muscles" if the belt is worn during standing isolation drills, but not good for practicing turns and things of that nature because the extra force of the weight belt during the turn will pull on our bodies much more than regular body weight and can be a real strain on our bodies. like extra centrifugal force.

good question!
