The Method: Step Up to Dance

This is a feel good video. The routine is interesting, the set is appealing (like other Method tapes), and the exercisers are all good.
While I generally like this video a lot, I modify it quite a bit. I find the choreography unecessarily complex. While I can follow a Cathe tape by the second time, I'm convinced I'll never get some parts of this routine no matter how many times I do it. She does break segments down very slowly—too slowly, because my heart rate plummets. Heart rate also plummets during toning segments. So all in all, I modify what I can't follow, and what goes too slowly. Some parts are also so easy that I feel I'm not getting work out.
Sounds like a lot of negatives, but the moves are fun, the ab section and cool down are great, and it's just a nice tape option to have.
