"I had fun with this workout since it never slows down for teaching, it keeps your heart rate up. She does do some of the same moves over & over, but it's still fun. I almost didn't know there was a instructional at the end of the video or in the scenes part of the DVD which helped a lot. She breaks things down well, but there were some moves she doesn't teach at all. Considering I don't learn very fast, I still enjoy this DVD unlike Crunch: Dance Party or Crunch: Hip Hop & Kathy Smith's Latin Dancing is horrible since only 2 people out of 15 can dance & they're all in the back hidden.

There could be more teaching & breakdown as she dances, but if you're looking for non-stop latin dancing & you don't have left feet, this is a good choice.



There's a trailer for this, her other dvds& all the other ones I mentioned at collagevideo com"

Patience needed for the non-dancer

"I thought this would be a fun deviation from my standard workout tapes. I am not really a dancer and found this hard to follow. Lisa has an introduction to the steps section, but it is hard to see what she is doing since she is wearing all black. The warmup was easy to follow, but when you get into the workout it moves so fast you really need some patience to keep trying. I also quickly realized you can not do this workout wearing standard workout sneakers as you really need to have flexible feet to complete the steps. Overall I may use this once in a while, but this workout is no where near my favorite."

Fun Dance Workout

"I thought this was a fun dance workout. It's basically a routine that is broken down and taught. You do each step twice and then you add on to what you already have learned. It goes fast but you have enough chances to work on it. At the end you do the whole routine 3 times.



The only thing I didn't like about it was that it uses live music instead of a soundtrack. This is a personal thing, some people may like live better. I also enjoy doing workout videos where it's one continous routine. It livens it up for me. She doesn't give much review during the actual workout but does it in a additional segment at the end. I like this because I can keep doing the workout long after I get used to the steps. It's a fun latin dance workout!"

Not teaching

"This video doesn't teach you how to salsa. It is very fast passed. I think if you had some salsa background you'd be fine. But for beginners..no. I really wanted something that taught the steps and then put them together. This just does the steps and you need to catch on. I will say it works up a good sweat."
