Cool! I like the set, I like the music, I like the workout, and -- most of all -- I like Kari! This is a 45-minute step workout. The 45 minutes includes the warmup and a very brief cooldown. The actual stepping time is probably closer to 37-38 minutes.

You've probably read the description in the Collage catalog saying this workout uses multiple steps. Kari actually uses 3 steps. However, there are only a very few movements using the other 2 steps, so this can very easily be done with one. You just do the other-step moves on the floor. There is no noticeable difference in intensity when you do it that way. I just have one step myself.

This is an actual workout, but it is also geared toward instructors, so Kari gives tips for teaching as well.

I've been delighted with all of Kari's tapes in her Great Moves series, and this one is no exception. She even gives you a nice plastic cover and all in the series are only $16.95 each.

Both choreography and intensity on this tape are intermediate/advanced. If you are more toward the intermediate level, you can leave out some of the turns that Kari is famous for. She *always* shows the basic move without turns or other fancy footwork in all her videos.

Grade A.
