I’m an advanced exerciser who loves cardio and dance. I knew going in that this was not a dance video, and after I finished, I knew it wasn’t a workout video, either.

The warmup starts out with some head and arm rolls, which transitioned into some hip-hop/funky-style dancing. We did the mambo and we did some disco. We finished with a short cool-down, which consisted of some more dancing... and I don’t mean actual dancing. Nobody I have ever known would go out in public and dance this way. Allie keeps saying everybody will want to dance with us at the club, but I doubt it.

I wouldn’t classify this as a workout either, simply because there isn’t enough cardio in it to make it so. There are no weights used, no resistance, and no core exercises. I didn’t really work up a sweat, and my heart rate stayed low the entire time. The workout simply did not feel particularly beneficial. It won’t be part of my usual rotation as I like longer and much more intense workouts than this one could offer.

My recommendation is that if you are a beginner or low-intermediate and want a short, fun, but not intense workout, then this is for you. Even people with two left feet can get the hang of this one. If you are advanced, this video would be for easy days or just for fun. I felt pretty silly at times, but I did not hate it. It just isn’t something I’ll do very often.

Sadly, I grade this one with only a C. I wanted to like it so much more than I did.

Instructor Comments:
Perky and bubbly, as usual. Very likeable.
