I am so glad that I bought this on a presale. It's excellent! It's my favorite of the 2500 CIAs. The complexity, intensity, and repetition are right on for an advanced exerciser. The impact is lower, but she uses arms to keep the heart pumping. There are spins, but not as many as in Seasun's "TNS". Ann Marie was quite good about keeping the body balanced by doing moves on each side. Since this is her first video, I had lowered my standards. It's a pleasant surprise that she exceeded my expectations. But then again, you can tell she is an experienced instructor because she comes off so confidently when teaching.

The music is new, not recycled from another CIA; and it's good. The TIFT-ing is minimal, and felt like just the right amount to nail the moves. I really enjoyed this workout, and give it two thumbs up!

Instructor Comments:
Very fun, polished, confident, and motivating! I like her a lot. Perfect cueing. My fingers are crossed she makes another video. I think she might resemble Karen Voight in poise, but with more fun thrown in--however I don't have a KV video to compare with. The backup exercisers (including a modifier) were well-rehearsed with nary a misstep. Kudos!
