Yes! They're fabulous, and really fun. Look for anything by Neena and Veena. I haven't been to any classes because there aren't any I can make it to in my area, but I'd love to someday.
One of the reasons this is so effective is that it's a combination of cardio and strength training - it takes control of your muscles to perform some of the movements, and that means you develop great core strength. Another great thing - you definitely get more graceful as you go along.
I recommend you get yourself a bellydancing scarf as well - it's a lot easier to tell you're doing the moves right if you can hear the jingle. EBay is a great source, or try a costume shop. If you're handy, you can make your own with an old scarf and coins that you can sew on (avaialbe at craft shops and WalMart in the sewing section). I'm making one for each of my little girls because they love to dance with me!

I have been losing weight my whole life with my heaviest being 360 lbs. I lost 19 lbs in 2 weeks. And even after losing most of my weight on a basic starvation diet and knee crippling exercise I knew this was the answer. I have never been below 25% BF. I have never looked as healthy as I do. I have never had the confidence that I have now. I have never felt as good as I feel.

It surely does & it is very fun. I can't recommend any dvds off the top of my head, but anything from Isis & the Star Dancers is a good place to start. Just type it in any search engine & you'll be on your way. Enjoy!

It is Cardio, so it will help you lose weight depending on how mmuch you do it. A good guideline is 200 minutes a week.

Actually, most belly dancers have a slight layer of fat across the abdominal region. Have you noticed?
