Summary: Themed Workouts
Review: When purchasing this workout, my mind was saying: "You can't get fit in 10 minutes." I bought it anyway because I intended to do all the 10 minute exercises at once. Can this be done? Sure, it takes you 50 minutes to complete the Boot Camp, Pilates, Ballet, Kickboxing and Yoga sections.

My main issue with this workout was that each section moved so fast, it was difficult to keep up with it all the first time. After you learn the moves, it becomes slightly easier. While this doesn't seem to be a beginner workout, it might interest advanced users who might enjoy the "speed" challenge. If you have been doing Pilates and Yoga, you will recognize all the main moves.

I didn't really enjoy the Kickboxing section because it was much too fast, although I did incorporate some of the moves in my Walk Away the Pounds workouts just for fun. So, you can get a few kicking ideas. If you are looking for speed and creativity, this 10 minute section will amuse you.

The Ballet workout moves from side to side, first you are on one side of the chair, then the other. I like workouts where there is no chair, but the moves are rather fast and having a stabilizing object near you is probably advisable.

The instruction style is consistent throughout the entire DVD and the instructor displays perfect form. She has super-high energy and seems to excel at all types of exercise.

This DVD has three main sections:

Create a Personalized Workout
Pick One Workout
Play All

Overall an enjoyable workout if you do all five sections at once. Once I start exercising, I like to keep going for at least an hour. This might also be useful if you walk on your treadmill and then just want to do 10 additional minutes of a specific type of workout.
