I enjoy hip hop dancing as well. The best one I have found is called ZUMBA. It is hip hop/latin dancing put to mostly latin... almost rock music. I am a member of a gym and they have a Zumba class 6 days a week. I attend it two days and LOVE it.
There is a lot of belly dancing and other type "twist" movements so I think it would really work for your mid section. It is a fantastic overall body workout though with lots of leg and arm movements as well.
You will have a hard time finding videos at say a video store. I HAVE been able to find them at the library but they tended to be older (from about the early to mid 90's) and kind of cheesy. If you can find something newer to borrow just to get a "feel" I think that would be helpful. Otherwise, they have a website and you would likely be able to purchase their videos from there as well as check out some of the moves just to be certain it is something that would interest you. Their website is www.zumba.com
I am sort of addicted to Zumba. I love the music as well as the dance moves (they can be a bit more provocative than I am used to- but that's kind of fun too!!!) Of course, you may want to wait for other people to respond to your inquiry because other suggestions may suit your particular likes better. Just know that Zumba comes HIGHLY recommended from me and loads of other people.
