DVD Reviews of African Healing Dance
DVD Review: African Healing Dance
Summary: 5 Stars
Great dancing by Wyoma. Buy this video is dancing is something you want to pursue. She and a few other dancers dance to music ever so gracefully. DVD Review: African Healing Dance Really Works
Summary: 5 Stars
From the first movement I learned I have been enjoying something real from this dvd.
I bought this dvd mainly to learn an expressive vocabulary, and I find that when I hear music then I call on each new movement to express myself.
I think there is a physical healing dimension in addition to wonderful, joyful feelings. I had to move slowly with my shoulders at first, due to crackles and pops the first couple of times. If I have sore muscles from other activities a little dance movement will work that out. Dance movement moves synovial fluid around like yoga and mobility drills, lubricating and removing inflammatory toxins. That is preventive as well as restorative, physically.
DVD Review: Waist of money
Summary: 1 Stars
The product arrived toooo late, and I could not use it for the purpose it was bought for. I relied in this product for this specific event at my job, and I had to buy a new product to complete the job. Unfortunatelly I could not get it on time, and It ruined my plans. I called Amazon, and nobody could help in any means. DVD Review: loved African healing dance

Summary: 5 Stars
Love the video. I've been taking a class and have a hard time keeping up because I really can't dance but it's so much fun. I got the video so I could practice and keep up better in class and the instructions are great in the video. Worth it.
Description of African Healing Dance
Studio: Wea-des Moines Video Release Date: 04/27/2004African Healing Dance, with lead dancer Wyoma and the dancers and drummers of the Damballa dance troupe, is a step-by-step dance course on healing traditions and spiritual movements that are special to the African dance heritage. An African proverb teaches, "If you can talk, you can sing, and if you can walk, you can dance." Thus African Healing Dance is suited for beginning to advanced dancers, students of dance, instructors, and choreographers studying and/or performing African dance. The instructional video and included manual provide an effective guide for a dance or exercise program at home or in a workshop setting. Director of the Damballa dance troupe as well as head dancer, Wyoma begins with a simple warm-up, including breathing techniques; body articulation movements for the hips, chest, shoulders, and feet; and stretching. She then artistically integrates the teaching of six traditional African dances with the passion and joy of connecting dance movements that have the spirit and energy of nature and the elements (water, wind, fire, and earth) and animals such as the snake, elephant, and bird. A final portion of the 70-minute video is called "The Healing Journey," in which Wyoma encourages personal exploration of inner rhythms and feelings through improvisational movement. As one watches this video, it is difficult not to feel the pulse of the drumbeat and the spiritual strength of Wyoma and her celebration of life through dance. --Christine Aiken
