Rating: Summary: VERY SURPRISED, IT WAS NOT AS HARD TO LEARN AS I THOUGHT Review: i am a 25 year old male, who is about 230 lbs plus, and i had no problem learning and following the steps, i learned them in about 2 days. i love this video, it goes great with my weight loss program, i definitely like cardio dance better, over paula's previous video, get up and dance. this video seems that she went to the basics and i love it, i have already lost weight with this video. dont be fooled, this video is hard work(not the steps, but the workout) u will be sweating in no time. i do this tape at least once a day, sometimes twice. she keeps it fun, and upbeat, by far the best workout video i have seen.
Rating: Summary: Not for beginners!! Review: I bought this tape to learn to dance while getting a good work out and it turned out to be so fast paced that I found I was just standing there watching the tv most of the time!
Rating: Summary: great workout if you are restarting a fitness program Review: I bought this video because I have danced ballet for over 20 years as an amateur but have stopped doing any kind of exercise due to personal reasons. I have been wanting to go back to exercising but I have not been able to find/make time for that. I purchased some aerobics videos but aerobics and step type of exercising usually gets me bored. Due to my dancing background, I was very happy to find this video which combines fitness and dancing. It is fun to do. The steps are easy to learn and follow. It makes you sweat and get into shape real quick. However, after you start getting into shape, the exercises on the video become low impact and you need to combine it with higher impact videos or alternate them. But on the whole, I recommend this video.
Rating: Summary: not that hard, try it! Review: don't let the word "dance" throw you. i consider myself uncoordinated and an inexperienced dancer (no formal training) but i figured it out, so you can too! it's so much fun, it's worth the extra work. one feature i liked was the inset screen showing how the moves would look to someone standing behind her. it really helped being able to see her to the steps from the front and the back.
Rating: Summary: You will sweat! Review: I just bought this video because I had abdominal surgury a few weeks ago and could not keep up my high energy kick boxing schedule (I've been too tired!). I also do not get to go out dancing like I used to, so I thought this would be fun. I was right, this is fun. I watched the video several times before trying the moves and it is taking some time to learn the steps (I don't dare look in the mirror!). Even though I have only gotten through the first section, I am looking forward to completing the video. It gets me warmed up quickly without over taxing and Paula is upbeat and cheerful. I feel happy when I'm done and enjoy the somewhat funky dance moves. My 8 year old daughter likes to watch it too!PS You will need a large area to get a good workout. Also this workout is hard on the ankles.
Rating: Summary: This workout video is fun and effective!!!! Review: At first I was unsure of whether to buy this workout video because I have absolutely no previous dance experience! I finally decided to try it out and I absolutely loved it!!!! Whenever I use it I don't even realize how long I have been exercising. I will admit that you do have to concentrate to learn the moves at first, but with determination you will definitely be able to do it. Give this one a try!!!!
Rating: Summary: Not for beginners! Review: Although this viedo got my heart rate up in no time, there was almost no explaination of the dance steps she was doing and the filming wasn't clear enough to really tell what they were doing either. I can tell it will take a long time before I figure this one out.
Rating: Summary: An excellent video for those with previous dance lessons!! Review: I recently bought this tape and to my suprize it was a wonderful work-out video. Combining dance and strength training. This tape would work very well for people who have previous dance knowledge and who want to upkeep their skills. Thank you!
Rating: Summary: Paula has done it again! I am in love with this workout! Review: This video is by far my favorite. It is a 30 minute workout with an hour worth of sweat! The dance moves are wonderfully choreographed. I love to dance and I have never taken any dance classes but in order to enjoy this video you should be able to keep up just by listening. Each dance move leads right into the other if you do it correctly. I love a challenge and this video fulfilled my need. It can also be beneficial for non-dancers, it just takes a little bit of practice and good listening skills. - Alisha
Rating: Summary: hard to follow if you are not coordinated Review: great for teens that are good at dance but I found it difficult to follow and did not get a good workout
