I'm working through dusty bunnies & virgins, starting at beginner level, due to too long of a hiatus. I'd been high intermediate/low advanced, but have slipped back a long way, hence going with beginners to avoid any dread factor.

My computer spat this one out for me to do, so I did. No dread.
Given that it's quite old - mine has been converted to DVD from VHS - I expected it to look dated, and it did, almost humourously so - leopard skin leotards, big hair and all.

The workout as I found it was tediously easy, slow, at SUPER beginner level......... for the first few segments. It would actually be great for a true beginner as the moves are simple, cueing excellent, and she gave constant form tips - she spoke very quickly with something like "hips under, stomach in, back straight, shoulders down, breathe!" quite a few times, amongst other specific form comments, which was good.

I used light wrist weights, and by the 4th segment they'd caught up with a bit and it didn't feel quite so ABSOLUTE beginner any more.

For a one-off 'dust off a dusty' workout, I immersed myself in the cheese, imagined I was back 'in the day' and had a pretty good time by the end of it.

It'll probably be another few years before I do it again, but when it does come around, I won't avoid it.

Instructor Comments:
She moves pretty well - gets that dancers hip movement going (that I could never do) on simple side steps, had great form, and a pleasant voice. No extraneous stuff - the guy with the red cap served that purpose.
