New Cardio Bellydance DVD incorporates Bellycore®, a combination of bellydance and Pilates

New York, NY (PRWEB) January 13, 2007

Wish you could move like Shakira and Nelly Furtado? New York City-based Middle Eastern dancer and fitness pro Melissa Michalak will get you there with Bellycore®, a blend of Pilates exercises and belly dance moves.

Designed for newcomers to both bellydance and Pilates, the Cardio Bellydance DVD starts with a simple, Pilates-based warmup, then introduces lots of exciting bellydance moves geared towards a great cardio workout. The resulting DVD targets abs, hips, and thighs as well as arms and shoulders-- without lifting a single weight or doing a single non-Pilates exercise.

The Bellycore® system, recently profiled in Prevention magazine, combines Melissa's Pilates and fitness expertise with her years of dance teaching to stretch and strengthen important dance muscles. The flexibility and spinal mobility of belly dance, blended with the strengthening and lengthening effects of Pilates, becomes a system that changes the way you think about your body. And as you change your thinking about your body, you become more flexible, more coordinated, and more balanced than you ever thought you could be.

Try Bellycore® in the current video Cardio Bellydance, available at Bellycore.com and World Dance New York. For more information, visit http://www. bellycore.com, or email bellycore@aweber.com.
