Description
From the creator of The Bollywood Dance Workout and Bollywood Burn This unique dance-inspired abs workout is the perfect way to tone your tummy while having fun. Fitness star and yogini Hemalayaa draws on dance moves from across the globe in three 12-minute routines that offer a refreshing new way to work those all-important core muscles. Start with a fast-paced cardio warm-up, then choose one, two, or all three routines. The upbeat music and variety of moves keep you interested and make the time fly. Hemalayaa goes way beyond boring crunches, creating workouts you'll love to do. You'll shimmy, stretch, and bounce your way to the belly you've always wanted: shapely, strong, and sexy.

 Great workout that's also fun! July 14, 2008

This is my favorite Hemalayaa DVD so far! I've been using it for nearly 2 weeks now, and my belly really is getting more beautiful-- by which I mean flatter and more taut. The workouts are fun and energizing, and you just can't help laughing along with Hemalayaa.

I bought this dvd because everyone said how great Hemalayaa is. She is suppose to be a yogini that incorporates Bollywood flair into her workouts. I didn't like this video at all. I've been doing yoga for years--several times a week. I take class with instructors, do my own practice, and have several dvds that I enjoy. Halfway through this workout, I had had enough. She's all over the place. She provides poor instruction. There's a pilates section that is poorly done. She constantly has you switching direction so your belly never gets the benefit of the exercise. You're so busy trying to keep up with her changes that the workout isn't fun and not very beneficial. If you want an amazing yoga workout, try one of Ana Brett and Ravi Singh's dvds. If you're looking for more of an aerobic/dance workout, try something else.
so much fun! June 26, 2008

I agree with the other reviewers that Hemalayaa is very inspiring and fun to watch and work out with. I feel she invites you to share in the fun with her, and believe me - these ARE workouts. You WILL be dripping!! I feel her secret is inviting you to have fun with her, and you are working out without feeling it. Definately a change from the 1-2-3-4-I'm bored weight lifting routines. Be advised though, there are some parts which may be challenging for you if you are not flexible, so maybe watch first so you don't get caught up and hurt yourself. I also have her other workout DVD's and they are just as much fun and work. Try something new!

I needed something to kick up my ab routine and this is it! I recently moved to LA and saw Hema on the KTLA morning news promoting her video. I ran out right away and bought it! It's really fun and she's very positive and encouraging. It was a great workout, very different moves but felt really effective. I want to get her Bollywood Burn now too. If you're looking for something different than crunches than get this video!
More fun from Hemalayaa June 12, 2008

I recently discovered Hemalayaa Behl's incredibly fun workouts "Bollywood Dance" and "Bollywood Burn" (check them out, they are a blast!) and I think I am going to love her "Beautiful Belly" workout just as much. Like the other two DVDs this one gets you sweating right away with lots of shimmies, hops, and other bhangra-inspired dance moves. In addition to the cardio, Hema also mixes in some more traditional abdominal work (pilates-type leg circles, yoga boat pose) and some non-traditional ab work as well.
The workout starts off with a six minute cardio warm-up. Following the warm-up are three separate twelve minute segments. Each of these segments incorporates both dance and ab work. If pressed for time you could do the warm-up and one of the twelve minute segments, but honestly, this workout is so much fun, once you start you don't want it to end. My only criticism of the workout is that there is no "cool-down" segment, which would be nice here because the final segment ends with some vigorous belly dance moves, and definitely left me sweating.
Like Hemalayaa's other two "dance" workouts, "Bollywood Dance" and "Bollywood Burn," this workout is driven by Hemalayaa's infectious spirit of fun and play. The set and costumes are great, the music keeps you moving, and Hema keeps you smiling and inspired.
