WOW!!! October 3, 2008 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
I am so glad I ordered this DVD! However, there are some things you should know before ordering it, if you haven't already. This is a tough workout. It's unlike anything I've ever seen for doing at home. I danced for a few years when I was younger but I see this is going to be very challenging. That is what I find so exciting about it, though. I'll be lucky if I master the entire thing over the next 2 months. I'm taking it one or two combos a day over the next few weeks in order to learn everything, slowly doing them together until I get the whole thing.
I understand that some people will be overwhelmed if they are expecting something they can master in a few sessions. If that is what you want, this isn't for you. This is challenging and requires a lot of time and hard work. That is what makes it so worth the money, though. I don't expect to master this in less than 2 months time but when I do, I will be in the best shape of my life. If you are willing to work for it, it will be the best 30 dollars you've ever spent.
A fun workout that delivers! December 4, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The workout is definitely tough. It takes time to learn choreography. I got my DVD yesterday and so far I've learned the first combination (took me about an hour to be comfortable with it and do it up to speed with Tracy, and I do not have any dance background). I did notice that the arm movements in actual performance of the combination in the first combo are different from the moves Tracy teaches, but once you are familiar with the rest of the combo you'll not find it difficult to learn the proper arm movements. The workout is very fun! And I love the fact that she doesn't talk throughout the actual workout. I had been doing Jillian Michaels routine prior to getting Tracy's DVD's, and to be honest, after the first couple of weeks of Jillian I knew each word she was gonna say and exact second of when she'll say it. It became boring and I felt like I was in the army. Tracy's workout is very different and makes you feel like a woman! I feel sexy doing it. I can't wait to learn all the combo's and I'm up for the challenge! I can barely do the first combo making sure it lasts the whole song. I am in a pretty good shape, because I ran 10km every single day! This workout is tough but I fell in love with it from the moment I put it on!
Love this workout!!! September 29, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I loved Tracy's last DVD cardio workout and this one is great too. I love how you can follow her from the back. I am not a trained dancer but anyone that puts in the time and effort can learn this. You just have to keep trying. Just like you can't expect to lose weight or get in shape by sitting on your butt all day. Everything worthwhile takes hard work!! That being said, anyone willing to work hard will love this video. It is loads of fun and kicks your butt!!!!!
Great Workout! September 29, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This workout kicked my butt - in a good way! I had a baby 5 months ago (gained 50 lbs) and just can't seem to lose the last 20. Before the baby I was a runner, but when I tried to get back into it post-pregnancy, I developed runner's knee. I was concerned that this workout would hurt my knee, but I think there is enough variation in the moves because my knee feels OK. The moves are tough and I did feel frustrated at first - I am not very coordinated and definitely not a dancer. You just have to stick with it and once you get it it's SO much fun! Great music too! My only gripe is that I wish the DVD had more chapters so you could skip easily between each of the combinations. Otherwise, I'm really happy with it. Also bought the Mat workout which also kicked my butt - again, in a good way! Maybe I'll get into those pre-pregnancy jeans after all...
So Much Fun!!! October 8, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I just received this DVD about a week ago and immediately started learning the combinations. It was more challenging than I thought it was going to be but after repeating the combinations I am now able to do the first 3 dances up to tempo. I usually do this workout for about an hour and a half. It's so addicting and fun! If it wasn't so challenging I would probably get bored. There are two different sections of the DVD. The first part is where she slowly goes over the combos and the second is where you have already learned it and can get started. I love the music and the fact that she doesn't talk during the dance portion. I can't wait to master the whole thing.
