I hoped I would like this tape since I like CIA 9701, Donna's step tape, and I was not disappointed. Although some of the steps are similar to her step tape, the entire workout has a different feel and so I would not be bored doing her step tape one day and the hi/lo the next. The workout is a bit easier than other CIA hi/lo workouts, but I would still consider it advanced. For me, the intensity level is very easily modified with this tape depending on how I feel. It is not a great learning tape - some of the new moves come at you really fast, without explanation, but they are not so complex, that you can't figure it out. After the first few uses, I was glad she did not break down the moves too much.

The second workout with Lisa is OK, I may do it again some day if I am ever want to do something different, but I have too many newer and fun tapes right now so it will probably be a while.

Instructor Comments:
Donna is probably one of my favorite CIA instructors. Her cueing is pretty good most of the time, and I just really like her personality.
