I really liked this workout! Toning, stretching, and some light cardio all together. It is also a good workout for your feet and ankles, so is best done barefoot.

The pace is fairly slow during a lot of it which seemed very appropriate for the exercises. This is probably why it seems "deceptively" challenging. You have time to concentrate on form, balance, and positioning.

The six sections are a bit repetitive within each section but seem effective. At the end, the Allegro Chapter is a flow of these six sections strung together. I loved this part and this is the part I will do most often in the future. The dvd is chaptered so it will be easy to do just this section as many times as I want.

Instructor Comments:
Shannon has a pleasant demeanor - she is calm but still smiles and looks like she is enjoying herself. She gives some good tips during the workout.
