CIA 2K03 takes kickboxing to a new level. It is very aerobic because Sherri uses a very fast pace. It is also very advanced. She uses a couple of moves I have never seen before and teaches them quickly. Her cueing is fine, but her style is for experienced kickboxers. I usually use kickbox tapes on days when I want a less intense workout, but not this one. Another difficulty is she puts moves together in non-traditional ways. For example, jab hook jab cross rather than jab cross jab hook. I did enjoy the tape and got a great cardio workout. The only tape I've done that's comparable is Keli Robert's CIA tape, but the intense cardio workout in that tape comes from the jumping intervals. I think this tape has a very limited audience -- experienced kickboxers at a very advanced cardio level.

Instructor Comments:
Sherri has a very distinct kickbox style, with a much faster pace than other videos I have done. Her teaching is geared toward experienced kickboxers with an advanced cardio level.
