Datura Online Belly Dance Review

I'm sure you've all heard of Datura Online, the online school created by Sol Crawford and Rachel Brice. If you haven't, it is a site you'll want to check out.

Price: $25 a month.

Videos on Tribal, Cabaret, Egyptian, Fusion, Vintage, Yoga, Pilates, and Musicality. 


Pros:

• Fabulous Teachers- Tamalyn Dallal, Rachel Brice, Sadona Soulfire, Henna, Ashley Lopez, Zoey Jakes and others. 
• High Production- The videos are well lit, with good sound and not a lot of distractions. There are mirrors so you can see how the moves should look from the front.  
• A ton of great videos. I hate subscribing to things and finding out they only have one or two videos I really enjoyed. There are so many videos on here that I got a ton out of and a lot of worshop kind of classes as well.
• There are playlists of videos based on the style/level you are interested in. 
• Each video has a list of the songs used during the video.
• Has trial videos so you can see if your computer will support them before you invest. 
• Each video has a ranking so you can easily tell if it is at your level of comfort. 
• The site offers scholarships. 

Cons:

- I wish they had some sort of certificate or record of completion- not because they really mean anything technique wise- but because it would encourage me to fit it into my schedule. It's very easy to put it off and put it off as it doesn't have the incentive of a real class.   

-You can't download videos, not that it was expected but I have pretty crappy internet which leads to skipping. It's not exactly a con and not likely one anyone else will encounter.

Overall: This is one of the few resources I feel is 100% worth the money. It's a steal with the cost being roughly the same as 2 in-person dance classes.

10/10 Stars, you can't sign up fast enough. If you do decide to sign up I would appreciate it if you used the link below as it gives me credit and frees me up to do more reviews! I also am more than happy to answer any questions you might have about the site.
