It's like a real dance classSeptember 1, 2008 After reading some of the 1 and 2-star reviews I needed to respond. See. . . when you go to a dance class for the first time, no one expects you to pick up on the routine right away. You have to go a bunch of times before the "lightbulb" goes off and you suddenly catch onto the moves. That's how this video is. Sometimes you have to repeat the chapter a few times (isn't that the amazing thing about using a DVD????) in order to get the steps right. It's not like a typical work out DVD where you can go straight through (unless you are a trained dancer) and it's also not as BORING!!!
Boring! and cheesyJuly 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love cardio dance as a workout but don't have the time or opportunity to take real classes in a gym or studio, so I thought this dvd would be a good enough replacement. Unfortunately I hated it. This may just be personal preference but I thought the music was bad, the choreography was boring and Jamie's constant chatter annoying. The back-up dancers tend to look less than enthused and are often out-of-time with Jamie.
The moves are demonstrated very quickly and are hard to grasp the first time, but I'm never out-of-breath by the end of it. I put everything I have into the moves but they just don't work the muscles or get my heart rate up. I've done the workout about 10 times now, enough to convince myself it was worth the $15, although I've never made it to the end of the dvd--even with the sound muted--I always get too annoyed and just go run.
If you're in any kind of physical shape, this movie will probably not be a challenge for you and would just be a waste of time and money.
My Wife love itJuly 14, 2008 She says it really makes you workout, but a little of dancing background is required since the dance moves goes a little to fast for beginners. Nice explanation for the dance moves and good sound. Good presentation.
too fast for nondancersJuly 12, 2008 This starts out easy to follow, but for someone who is not a dancer it is just not easy to keep up with. I gave up before finishing the dvd.
LOVE this DVD!!!June 20, 2008 I am a group fitness instructor and I'm always looking for new ideas. A fun workout for anyone into dancing/hip hop or just wants to have fun while working out. "Rino" is my favorite in the vid! Also has a good strength training portion (no equipment required).
