Worst workout ever!

"This DVD claims to have 45 minutes of "complete cardio". Instead, there are 45 minutes of warmup consisting almost entirely of step-touch and grapevine moves. It is completely low impact and will never get your heart rate up. Unless you are morbidly obese or get winded walking a half block at a normal pace, there is no benefit to this video."
Very good

"The dvd was great. I am not one to go to the gym and take classes b/c I dont feel comfortable working out in front of people, more or less dancing. I liked it. Im not a good dancer so it was easy for follow and have fun shakin' my butt. My 5yr daughter and I have fun doing it together. We always have a good laugh and feel great afterward. I have even noticed my body change and I lost a few inches off my waistline. I hope they do more dance videos that are this easy to follow and keep my daughter and I motivated to stay in shape.
"
Not what I was expecting.

"I bought this wanting a good cardio dance workout, it fell short. This DVD has it's good points and its bad points, more bad than good unfortunately.
First the good:
- good instructor, happy/perky but not annoying. Her cueing is pretty easy to follow and she doesn't surprise you with changing direction without notice.
- tries to get your whole body with hip pops, lots of arm movements.
Now the bad:
- really strange music, not the kind that makes you want to dance.
- the modified version isn't really modified, and they hardly show her, instead they focus on another woman just about as much as they focus on the instructor. (there are 3 women + instructor).
- Several of the moves were difficult on carpet (funky feet, scissors).
- Some of the movements hard to follow.
Not a strenuous cardio routine, maybe good for an off day."
