A year or so ago I decide I MUST have Urban Tai Chi. After finally acquiring it via trade I popped it in the VCR for a quick preview. A phrase that caught my attention was "Energy to the kidneys". Well, I just could not picture myself listening to this phrase over and over again. On my exchange list it went.
Fast forward a year, I decided I MUST have Kamikaze. Why? Good question. As soon as I come up with an answer I will let you know.
Happily, this video contained no shout outs to internal organs.
The workout started promisingly enough, with a nice warm up using large range of motion movements. She really gets your heart pumping for the first combo with a series of scissor steps. The video seems to go downhill from there, though. The intensity just was not there for me. Many combinations were taught too slowly. The slow pace of instruction made the workout seem much longer than it was. I kept looking at the timer on my VCR ("I've only done 20 minutes???"). Finally, the second (and last) time I did this video I pulled it out and did another one instead.I just could not finish it.
