Taebo Cardio is a good beginner/intermediate kickboxing workout for someone who wants a quick, fun workout that has simple choreography. Taebo Cardio is my first (and so far only) experience with Billy Blanks. In this video, Billy comes across as a caring and motivating instructor (although I think he does prattle on too long at the end of the video). I like how he occasionally talks directly into the camera as if he's talking directly to you. Throughout the entire video, a background exerciser is counting out the moves. Some may find this irritating and some may find it motivating. Personally, I kind of like it.

The one thing that bothers me about this video is that the moves are not mirrored. So when Billy says to kick with your left foot, you really need to kick with your right (if you want to be facing the same direction he is facing in the video). After a few workouts, you get used to it. But I just don't understand why instructors don't mirror their videos.

Overall, I'd say this is a good video. If I were to lose it, I'd probably buy it again.
