Rating:  - DANCER'S BODY WORKOUT
THE VIDEO IS OK IT IS NOT WHAT I EXPECTED.I EXPECTED MORE OF A HIGH IMPACT. IT'S MORE OF A VERY LOW IMPACT VIDEO. THE VIDEO IS GOOD FOR THOSE DAYS WHEN YOUR REALLY NOT UP TO SWEATING INTENSELY. OTHER THAN THAT THE VIDEO ARRIEVED VERY QUICKLY.
Rating:  - The instructor forgot that we remember the routine...
I have to agree with some of the previous reviewers. I'm simply disappointed that after a couple of times trying out this dvd I found nothing else to do except for fastforwarding to the end (the 5-time repetitions of the routine), BECAUSE, my bad, I remembered the rountine. Unfortunately, the instructor forgot that we had that ability... Oops...
Rating: - Not what I was looking for...
I was hoping for something more challenging. This would be great for beginners or people that need extra time to get the moves. The 60 minute version was WAY too slow for me. The 30 minute version was better, but I was still disappointed. I used to take dance lessons though, so what is too slow for me, may be a good pace for others.....I will keep it because I have a knee injury and on days when I can't do anything else, I will do this.
It is a matter of taste, I didn't like the dance that much, but the music didn't bother me.
Rating:  - Very disappointed...
After taking a 3 year hiatus from dancing, I've decided to make my way back to it again by taking a ballet class this coming January. I saw this DVD at the store when I was poking around and picked it up, thinking it would help me get back in shape so I wouldn't be a complete failure when I start dancing again. Well, I wish I hadn't. It's evident that Patricia is a very dedicated instructor and I admire that, but the bad far outweighs the good on this underwhelming DVD.
Like others have said, the music is absolutely terrible, the choreography is not terribly exciting, and my biggest problem with it is that the vast majority of the DVD is slow-moving instruction on how to perform the moves. You're not really working unless you're actually doing the routine, and that happens very rarely with the DVD. Once you've done this a few times and have memorized the choreography, the disc will become useless. It's not like a yoga/pilates DVD where almost everything you do is useful for your body in some way or another. In all, this DVD was a terrible disappointment and, like another reviewer said, it's going right in the back of my closet.
(It doesn't help any that her dancers don't know what the hell they're doing. Sometimes they're so off-the-mark, it's distracting to watch.)
Rating:  - Loved it!
This is one I look forward to doing. I don't care about the music. Anyone who wants a slow, step by step, non-workout, this is not for you. If you're looking for short explanations, and then full-fledged moves, this if for you. I stay in good shape doing Tae-Bo and Karen Voight sort of workouts. This workout got me sweating within 20 minutes; it usually takes longer. I loved the dance, the variety, and you feel like a professional dancer while you do this once you get the steps down. If you are coordinated, it'll be fun and easy. A few rewinds for some steps, and you will not find this difficult to do. The ending is an awesome dance routine done four times through that really gets you winded. You'll have so much fun doing it!
