I love this video. It's just good relaxed fun - like MaDonna herself. She's so real. She cues well, but doesn't yak-yak-yak the whole time. The team look like they are having so much fun, and, even though I probably look like an idiot trying to imitate their moves, I have a blast dancing to this video. To really get a workout and get your heartrate up, her other video is better, but just for sheer fun, this one is great.

Don't be fooled by the title "Dance Fitness for Beginners." Anyone can do this routine except those with weak joints because there is a lot of hopping going on in this workout. Even the 10 minute warm-up has several hopping moves as well as some fast neck swings. After you do that, however, MaDonna leads in several stretches. The 15 minute routine has a mixture of fast footwork and hops. The beginner would probably do better to get her other "Dance Fitness for Beginners" workout, but I personally prefer this one as a workout. It is more fun and higher cardio. The cool-down is really good after all of the high cardio moves you do, and it is about 5 minutes. There is a bonus 10 minute toning workout that works the legs and abs. This one works the legs more than the abs as opposed to the toning workout in her other partner video which worked both equally. It is really short, but I like this workout because it is fun. The 5 back-up dancers are constantly joking around with each other and MaDonna, and the atmosphere is just one of fun. There was more of African dance in this workout than there was Latin, and that is a unique workout that you don't see a lot. This is not the same workout as MaDonna's "All Star Workouts:Afro-Latino" which I thought it was until I actually bought this. Overall, this was a high-intensity, fast workout that was just a little too short in my opinion.

I was tired of the regular workout tapes and wanted to try a dance workout. I am not a good dancer at all and none of the moves come naturally to me, but this is fun to do and gives me somewhat of a workout. I've noticed that the better I become at doing the moves, the more of a workout I can get. Two things were disappointing -- 1) there isn't a step guide portion of the video so you have to learn as you are doing the routine and 2) it's too short. I like to workout for at least 40 - 45 minutes and with less than 30 minutes this one just isn't long enough. In order to make it longer I've been doing the warm up, then going through the routine twice, then doing the cool down. But at least this is fun enough to make me wish it was longer! And MaDonna's personally is upbeat and fun, too.

I tried many exercise videos. I love doing yoga, but need some cardio. Well this is great cardio and fun. I am in a small travel trailer and still have room to do the moves and enjoy every minute of it.
