      Thanks, Sooz, for the heads up on that one! That's what I get for slacking off and looking for baskets and scimitars and other goodies.

            What it is, is a compilation of the performance footage from all the other dvds (hello, yes!) - instructional and performance - Carolena's lovely voice sharing some interesting insights into movements, past and present dancers, and other goodies. I think you'll all enjoy it and wear that plastic disk thin by watching this beautiful dance form evolve before your eyes, over and over and over....

              Carolena says the website will be on the new server on the 28th, then the shipping charges will calm down. Until then, if you want to order, you can call the studio, and you'll get the old shipping rates.

    HOW EXCITING!

    I went to order mine immediately, but found that the only shipping option was "Ground" at $14!! A $20 DVD plus $14 shipping? Is there any way to get this shipped via USPS? The flat rate envelope is only $4.85 or something.

    *itching to get my copy*

    I got mine today. Woohoo! And I already watched it.

    It's a lot of fun. Imagine sitting down right next to Carolena with much of the FC performance video footage you could find, and having her tell you about the dancers, the venues, and the evolution of the moves.

    And after I've read the discussion about how to perform the Egyptian, I felt like I was getting a visual history lesson in the development of that step as well.

    So I liked it. Did anyone else get theirs, yet? If yes, what did you think?

    I received mine last week and watched it from beginning to end.

    It is sooo nice to hear the down to earth comments from Carolena, like sitting in the same room with her. And that she and the troupe members. . are actually human :)

    though very worship worthy humans. *giggle* ;)

    Thank you for an awesome DVD and for using my little 'ol pic of you on the back Carolena :) That was a nice surprise :)

      Urvashi,

      The lil pic on the back is lovely! Such strength and poise and beauty!
      • I just finished watching the Director's Cut. I felt like Carolena was sitting next to me with a glass of wine, commenting and informing just like my friend and I do when we watch videos. This is especially cool for those of us who *often* have "Coffee With Carolena" or "Wine With Carolena" in our far-away living rooms!

        I love that we get to learn bits of non-invasive, personal/background info about the dancers....and other things we (I, for one) have wondered about. I hope Carolena didn't feel the need to "explain herself" per se, but the bits of history where apparent mass questioning was answered was sure interesting!

        Watching the evolution of the dance, the costuming and the dancers was/is fabulous, enjoyable and will prove to be very educational as I plan on going back and taking a few notes about how some aspects evolved and/or were found to be more effective when done in a different manner.

        If it didn't make sense before, it most certainly should now!

        THANK YOU!
