  • i already have the full dvd =D

  • wonderful!! ♥

  • All I see is a real woman that is not anorexic. Asharah is my favorite dancer and inspiration to keep dancing. How dare anyone judge her or any dancer due to perceived body type. Asharah look healthy and 100% woman and a powerhouse of strength and stamina. I have her 3 hour long instruction dvd (this one). I dare any that judges her to ATTEMPT to do the entire video in one session. It wouldn't happen unless you were an athlete like her.

  • that was new and neat! thanks !:)

  • waowww soo Sexyyyy!!!

  • I think its a bit strange when people want belly dancers to be stick thin you see no movement at all. ^ this right here is beautiful! lets see some bones do that!

  • @bluedotkittens EXACTLY!

    I feel sorry for the skinny dancers ... they all look like they skip meals and that's not healthy. I am thin but I eat whatever and whenever I want so I yo-yo. The more curves the better. My very own husband loves it when I put on a few.

  • She is such a humble dancer and artist. I love her personality and how she explains how she has came about in her belly dance career. Go on her website and read her purpose for dancing : )

  • Wonderful! This is what I've been looking for. I strive to be like her, all woman and beautiful while dancing! I want this DVD.

  • it doesn't matter her shape, she moves her "fatness" much better than many other skinny girls anyway

  • really really nice!!!

  • jAW on the floOR !!!

    

  • Some people can't manage to see that she has a perfectly FLAT stomach and has a beautiful figure, a much better one than some of the boney women I've seen trying to look anything near attractive whilst dancing. No honey, your ribs jutting out will NEVER look sexy, no matter how hard you try. What you're looking at is a REAL WOMAN'S FIGURE. And you know what? She's still quite petite. I suppose if vultures were picking at her some people would be satisfied, but then again, others have brains.

  • I dont see any fat! I guess some people expect a bony body. Ew!

  • wow she's amazing

  • SHE IS AWESOME!!!

  • How long does the practising take to do it like this ?

  • I bought this dvd, and I must say Im extremely happy with it. The moves are a bit challenging for me and I took way too many breaks during it. But overall its worth it :).

  • I have this DVD and it is a GREAT way to drill the crap out of moves. It really helps condition your body into muscle memory and develop your style. I definitely recommend it from the beginner level(those who are very adventurous) to the intermediate/advanced.

  • Go Asharah! :).

  • I am going to buy the DVD! :-D

  • Asharah is an amazing dancer. I've been in love with her since I stumbled upon her tribal fest 08 performance. This dvd is on my to-buy list. Anyone who disses her body or talent is obviously impaired....

  • Hi everyone: If being a size Small/5-6 is "big", then maybe you guys need to re-evaluate your body image issues. Just a thought. :)

    - Asharah

  • is she chubby or skinny

  • @ The the negative haters. Listen if you want a body bag skeleton go visit Lindsey Lohan, if you want a real woman who know her moves, rythm an talent the above is the answer!.

  • Amazing! You look great!

  • She does not have a big stomach. She has a completely average, HEALTHY body shape and weight.

  • Used to take lessons from her, but had to move to a different city. I miss her! She's fantastic. I really miss her locking and ticking instruction, she's awesome at it!

  • I love that it is still mostly bellydance. A lot of fusion styles fuse the bd right out!

  • I bought this DVD. It's 3 hrs approx. I had to break it down into segments and drill the heck out of it. Just the conditioning section alone was enough for one day and a day to recover. Body changes. She breaks it all down well enough for even the thickest skull (me) to grasp. She teaches a lot in this DVD unlike some other unmentionables. It's worth 10x what I paid for it!

  • @SleepyDancer Thanks for the review! I just bought the Android Goddess DVD and I was considering buying this one next, but I was unsure, now I'm definitely going to buy this DVD! Thanks! The instructor looks like an AMAZING dancer, I hope I can do some of those moves justice! Oh! I'm going to order this on Friday, hopefully it will come around the same time my Android Goddess DVD comes in! I'm so excited! Can't wait!

  • @SleepyDancer When can I get this Dvd, I'm in the UK?,

  • @100percentbabeLOL Go to her website or World Dance New York and order it. It is worth it x1000!

  • Asharah is in my top 3 favorite dancers!

  • I got to meet her. She was just in Pittsburgh. Oooooh She is soo friggin cool.

  • @queenbootyshaker Yeah, but there are no fat people in this video.

  • @queenbootyshaker YOU wish you could dance like her! WOW I didn't know haters can be sooooo repulsive!

  • @ElectroCat08 love do u know what repulsive mean man i got fine figure brap brap shes big man

  • @queenbootyshaker Is that English?

  • @CordsZ forget it i was hi

  • @queenbootyshaker Haha, nice!

  • @CordsZ i dont know what i was doing lol

  • @queenbootyshaker yeah means people like you!

  • I always return to this little video over and over again. Your muscle control is proper of a Bene Geserit! How do you manage to dance that impossible tunes?? :D

  • I wanna learn that at the end cus that was hard

  • in love :) how i wish to dance......

  • wow, she is good

  • @ Kiaroskurothe last song by Hecate which album is in?

  • @ElectroCat9 It's from Seven Veils of Silence.  The whole album is awesome!

  • Comment removed

  • @kiaroskuro @kiaroskuro Awww awesome!! the song is perfect, the dance and your style is amazing! I Love belly dancing. Tribal is my favorite, I was searching for belly dancing videos and I been watching your videos, and ooohhhh good Lord, love the way you dance to different rythms not boring AT ALL, very eye and ear catching, I really would love to get tutoring from you! :-) Keep the excellent work!

  • She is Amazing and talented! haters can keep hating!

  • She is Amazing and talented! haters can keep hating!

  • @MISSHERMAN2007 hay! fuck off!

  • @MISSHERMAN2007 *singsong* Dang, someones jealous

  • The great tribal drum & bass belly dancer....I think I saw her at a rave in brooklyn.....psssh

  • She's amazing...was a bit suspicious about this modern tribal belly dance but I might have to try it out!

  • @Supaidawuman You'll fall in love, like I did :) Check out this names in youtube Sashi, Ariellah, Rachel Brice, Kami Liddle... Enjoy

  • lol

  • this bitch is bad ass dame...

  • elle est vraiment magnifique, qu'est ce que j'aimerai pouvoir dancer comme elle ! ^^

  • Looks like "dark fusion" to me, like what Ariellah does...tribal fusion with a gothic edge and a lot of deep and dark emotion. Another DVD for my To Buy list. :p

  • wow, I bellydance, and honestly, I cant believe I havent found this style after a year or so of doing this..

  • she's awesome.

  • She's like a Bene Geserit, she has a superb muscle control

  • this is like gothic bellydance?! idk, sorry it looks like another emo-gothic form ^^

  • @nezz1 no it is not emo definitely it is gothic belly dancing you should just check it on google or something goths and emos are definitely not the same i dont think goths would really apreciate that you would say that gothsdislike emos as much as punks do and to get this out of the way emo is not punk punks hate emos or real punksthat is and punk is not pop punk just getting that out of the way since some people do not know the difference between either punks goths anad emos

  • Awesome! I have never seen anything like that before!

  • I am going to be dancing at the same festival next month here in MT. She is such a good dancer and I hope to meet her. Very tasteful and a good teacher as far as I can see.

  • NOSSA ADOREI VC DANÇA MUITO

  • bellydancing to IDM & breakcore! (not goth)

    good look.

  • I want to find a really great instructional DVD that teaches layering and arm movement/positions. I always seem never to know where to place my arms (or i just leave them in one spot for a while lol). Layering i have just started a little and you can see this DVD is filled with it! rofl

    Can't wait to own this DVD too! Love world dance dvd's!

  • i personally don't like this type of bellydance

    but she can dance very well

  • great dancer! 

  • must... own.... dvd...

  • i loveeeeeeee tribal :) im fourteen and curently in a woman troupe and when im older i want to teach :) it's amazing it's like when you dance it's a whole other world i just love it.

  • where can i get these things she has in hair?

  • @TruePolvora from an indian shop :)

  • @TruePolvora get creative

  • Freaking amazing dances!

  • I love this dance!!

  • Beautiful !

  • This is relevant to my interests. ;D

  • ordered!

  • Just to get this up near the top. MUSIC!

    "Li2CO3" by Venetian Snares

    "Orbs" by Maduro

    "Where Is Your Lord Now" by Hecate.

  • Thanks! Saved be the trouble of combing through comments to see if anyone brought up the tracks featured. :D

  • @kiaroskuro thanks so much for letting us know the songs..

  • great music

    what is it ????

  • looks a lot like the gothic dancers stuff in the Ny dance i wonder is it a type of fusion with the mordern or something all together diffrent?

  • este baile me encanta ya me gustaria saber hacer eso :(

  • coooooolllllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllll....

  • love the industrial influences of bellydance

  • wow, so exotic!

  • Claudia: it sounds like something from Pentaphobe.

    Malekeh: Tribal style is just a style...less cabaret, more earthy & lots of fusion. Google it.

  • love the outfit!

    but lol WHAT KIND OF BELLY DANCING IS THIS??

    LIKE WHAT "TRIBE" ?

  • @malekeh Gothic Fusion

  • I Love the song. Does anyone know who is the artists and the title?

  • Venetian Snares - Li2Co3

  • I love your DVD Asharah! Thanks!

  • I have to admit.... I'm a way bigger fan of her than Rachel Brice. Rachel Brice is good, but this lady... I don't know, I think she's absolutely gorgeous... without and without make-up. Plus her style really motivates me. It's strange.

  • can anyone tell me if this dvd is ok for beginers or are they going to lose me in about five seconds? i mean it focuses on workout and breaking down movements right? or is there a better one by bellycraft or whatnot?

  • Idon't know if you are talent of dancing or ...... i just bought this DVD and i think it is kinda hard for beginner because there are not much demonstration for each specific movement. i kinda hard to fowllow her instruction and some of her instructions are kinda confusing.

  • I talked to Asharah about this dvd at a workshop. She told me that yes, its super intense. She advised to do certain parts of the video at a time to grasp the concepts. But its a really great video to condition the body into learning the movements

  • try tribal dance DVD by sera. It should be in the list of videos here on youtube by world dance NY. It is a very good DVD for beginners, advanced, and intermediate. Then come back to this DVD and see where it takes you lol. It should make more sense.

  • Its definitely an intense video. It can be good for beginners if they do only sections of the video at a time but I also recommend Ariellah's video with yoga and Rachel Brice's videos they are pretty good for beginning stages. Or at least I feel that way. You are definitely going to get a work out of them anyways but Asharah's video is very intense.

  • what about the video: Bellydance For The Beautiful Freaks? Tempest is the one who did that one right? i liked her demonstration on what she called a paisley movement... i dont mind studying a vid for a while if i have to. if it encompasses a lot of varied material all the better because i want to build a collection of movements to try and experiment with. i'm not sure what i'm capable of yet. the strobing looks super hard.

  • I haven't gotten to check that one out. But it sounds like its a good one!

  • Liked her dancing. And, I liked the second song. However, the first song sounded too much like a robot farting...so I had a REALLY hard time paying attention into the beautiful, mysterious dancer...

  • I like this but i'm more into the traditional music. But this is soooooooo cool.

  • me encantaria poder comprar tu DVD

    hermoso

  • Reppin for the DMV like shit! Go Asharah

  • See I like this one better than that expert village they look like robots doin it but this is sexy

  • beautifull

  • wow ................0o

  • sugoi..felicidades,,ya quisiera moverme asi..

  • this is the best kind of bellydance!

  • fuck yea arabic DnB bellydance i love it.

    now only to refine my pops

  • she's very good.

  • wow shes amazing

  • I hate tha music that goes wit it, tha original one is better

  • wow she's good

  • Does anybody knows the name of the musician or a band she's dancing to?

  • I'm guessing it's Maduro, since that's her hubby. :)

  • The first song is "Li2CO3" by Venetian Snares. The second is "Orbs" by Maduro, and the third is "Where Is Your Lord Now?" by Hecate.

  • Thank you!

  • wow!!!

  • YES!!!  influence of a poppin' style !!! RESPECT FOR YOUR WORK

  • Nice work. Beautiful form and energy.

  • muito lindooooooooooooo !!!

    Ashara de parabéns !!! tudo de bom !!!

    vídeo lindo... movimentos PERFEITOS !!!

    já sou sua fã !!! adoroooooooooo

  • God belly dancing is so hot. I want to learn!

  • Excellent DVD- the best tribal instructional in my opinion

  • Super amazing!  I dance like a brick.

  • ghi

  • so great! it realy makes me want to learn it <3

  • This DVD hurts!

    But only 'cause she's awesome-the training is quite challenging for beginners.But worth it.Have fun with your hurting muscles ;)

  • yeah I'm gonna try this one, I am both looking forward to it and dreading it LOL

  • when she says 'and now a little faster' you're gonna....love her for it ;) Very intense drills,the warmup is a hard one (I think) but managable.Will improve your posture/arms a lot.I love the training section of mechanic,ticking moves,she's so great at it.Have fun working them aps ;)

  • What type of music is being played during the dance parts??

  • breakcore

  • it has more of a drum&bass feel than hardcore, i want this track! ^_^

  • i just got this dvd yesterday and i love it! it's pretty challenging but it's possible for anyone to do as long as you do it. =)

  • she's great:)

  • This is my favorite dancer and the music on here is Maduro, who is also my favorite. They are a great couple!

  • where do you get this music from? it's awesome

  • She's awesome *-*

  • hell yeah! The Star Beings are here!

  • I am new to bellydancing, but in tribal I only saw skinny girls so far. It´s very inspiring to see a "normal" buildt woman doing such mooves. Thanks for sharing!

  • :D I agree! But compared to many Americans (and belly dancers), she's on the slim side.

  • awesome! what lvl is this dvd? im an intermediate in egyptian oriental and i just started studying tribal fusion which is really cool. i even learned a video by Sera in like 2 days tops, if not one. but they say perfect practice makes perfect. I just need to plug in my pop lock n shimmy dvd to get my strobes tweaked up a bit and sharper. :D cool stuff.

  • The first song is "Li2Co3" by Venetian Snares. I love that song, and I love Asharah's style.

  • LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT.

  • This is a FANTASTIC DVD - definately buy it (as for all the comments on the music in the performance piece...It doesn't suit my tastes either, but does it really matter? The DVD rocks!!!)

  • ok i know that at then end of the trailors sometimes it isnt the performance. Is it the performance in the dvd? and what lvl is the dvd? i can do a beginner/intermediate, so would i be ok? i just want to tweak up my ticks and strobes and learn some of the cool moves to the awesome music. yea the music is kinda weird, but its so scary tht you LOVE it :D.

  • Any level can do this DVD - beginner to advanced. It takes drilling to a new level. I think this DVD will suit your needs based on what you asked.

  • There are two performances on the DVD--both are previewed in this clip, including that final performance with the red background.  And, yes, this is a fabulous DVD for any level belly dancer.

  • This is excellent buy it and get your arse kicked by it! x kt

  • I second that!

  • i wan to learn..cool..n wat is tat music at da 1st wan

  • BREAKCORE!!!!!!!!

  • \m/ \m/  Girls <3 breakcore! :D

  • I love the music :D

  • wtf is up with the music?

    i mean the beat is awesome, but there are wayy better songs and much better music than that.

  • It's what she chooses to dance to, what she wishes to bring to us visually, which she does wonderfully. It's up to *US* to dare to step outside of our boxes/comfort zone and enjoy the experience and maybe even learn something from it.

  • well i do respect her for that.

    just the music is kinda scarey.

  • Dont like the music, to hyper or machine sounding, pitty because the dancing is ok

  • It's a different take on tribal fusion, it's about the locking, popping, and ticking done in a mechanical way. Notice how she says, "robotic and mechanical movements." Makes sense to use robotic and mechanical sounding music to create that mood. It's not always going to be everyone's specific cup of tea. If you don't like it, go watch something predictable and unoriginal.
