Summary: Difficult To Follow
Comment: This tape is for someone who is an experienced dancer. I just wanted something that my daughter and I could do together. She is much younger and still found it to be difficult. The moves are not repeated enough for you to get the entire routine. I definately do not recommend this one.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Perfect for beginners and Intermediate Levels...
Comment: I do workout 3-5 days a week, but I think this is a good DVD for those who aren't in great shape, or who want an energetic workout that doesn't leave you tired (but you will be sore the next day if you haven't done some of these moves before).
I have a few other hip hop fitness DVD's, but this is the one I come back to over and over. Devora goes step by step for everything from arm and shoulder movements, chest movements, and even hip movements. She is easy to follow, and goes slow enough for you to catch everything.
The dance "routine" is interesting in that she shows you how to incorporate the steps into a hip hop dance. It took me a few times to get the hang of it, but after a few attempts it is fairly easy to follow.
I give this DVD a 5 star rating because it is easy to follow, gives a good overall workout, and is fun to do.

Summary: Makes me wanna dance!!!
Comment:
This video was so easy to watch and follow! I have bought many instructional/fitness video and this one really stood out for me. The workout is non-intimidating and easy to follow because D always provides a simple step sequence you can return to if you start to "get a little lost". The production quality is not as high as other that are on the market, but in all honesty that didn't even matter to me......the choreography and the instructor's fun personality are what kept my attention. I really enjoyed this video....thanks!

Summary: This is the worst dance workout I've ever done
Comment: I wish I could give this DVD negative stars, because it is terrible in every way imaginable.
First, and most importantly, they don't dance to the beat of the music! At least half the time, they are COMPLETELY off from the actual tempo. It's almost like they can't even hear the music, like it was put in after they filmed. If you don't have any rythm, this may not bother you. But for those of us who have an innate sense of rythm, it is maddening.
Second, the "music" is just a basic, repetitive sample with no words or melody or anything. I cannot believe that any dance club in NYC would play music that's this boring. It's completely unmotivating.
Third, the production quality is unbelievably cheap. Whenever the dancers jump, the picture wobbles! Also, you can totally see the production crew walking around in the background. Not cool.
Fourth, the routine is just blah. The "moves" are the kind of filler steps you use when transitioning between REAL dance moves. Stringing them together does not a routine make. And like another reviewer said, D repeats the steps WAY too much. I found myself making up other moves (to the beat) just to pass the time.
I did the Grind workouts for years, and I loved the energy, the music, and the routines on those tapes. I was hoping to pick up some new moves from this DVD and get a great workout, but it was a total bust. I'm returning it TODAY!!

Summary: First Impression: Not great
Comment: I've done aerobic workouts of all kinds most of my life with dance aerobics being my favorite. I own most of the really good dance workouts already so I can compare easily. D's dance steps were cool and I liked learning them. But can you say,"REPETITIVE"??? After each step was added to those before, D would practise it over and over starting at step 1 EVERY TIME! She ended each section by asking her group,"Are you already gone??" I was screaming,"YES!!! The ship has sailed, the barn door is open and the horses are gone, you name it,D, it's gone!" I am a very patient person. I have only stopped a workout video/DVD a few times in my life! But I had to. I found myself repeating in my head, 'kill me now, kill me now!' Sorry, D, nothing personal. You're a great dancer.
