Thread: I've created a Bellydance tutorial channel on Youtube

I hope it can be useful to you and many others :)

I'm also open for criticism. I have taken the videos in one take to have a natural feel to it, and I didn't cut out the language-bloopers. Its like a real workshop - well with some nervousness because of the camera ;) I hope it will become my second nature soon.....

I think they are great, and really watchable.

i like your very thorough warm up---it gets to the whole body---i will borrow some of this for my class. Can you post a link to your dancing so we can see your bellydancing?

I liked it too! You have a pleasant voice and personality and you seem to know what you are doing.
I subscribed and look forward to youe next videos.

Taji-dancer: I found a great video of Coco. She is a fab dancer!

Thank you so much!! I'm happy you like it and will use it for your teaching!

I decided to spread my work into the world now, as I have put a great time of my life in gathering knowledge on dance, bodywork and teaching :)

And I also need to upload new clips of my dancing, but all the video-processing takes still so much time...

@Taji: In my opinion a warm up should start slowly and increase your heart rate, oxygen-supply.... and stimulate all the processes in your body (I could write on details for hours) to prepare your body, mind and soul for dance. But I know that most bellydance schools don't do so much cardio and focus more on mobilisation of the joints, I do that too, but after the whole system is running high, to prevent injuries.

Thank you all again for your support

Hi Coco, I like your you tube work.They are nice to work with, I love your personality and how you lead. I am new to bellydance and can't get to many classes, so I try to do things at home. I've been using your warmup and cool down , with my own drills, or other dvd's in between. thanks again..

Thank you so much for your feedback! I'm so happy!!

The first move-breakdowns are online now.
+drills with music will follow soon!

Wish you all relaxed days in between the holidays and a great new year full of dance, joy and nice surprises

ok---now we have to stop the Christmas munching and get back to working our bodies!!! thanks---gotta practice some of your warmup so i'll remember it when my classes start on 1/3/2012
