Thanks ladies! Hmmm...so Soul Sweat and maybe a beginner dvd like Foundations or Rise so I get the moves right. Decisions, decisions....
ETA: I've got Portishead, Massive Attack, Morcheeba, Enigma, Thievery Corporation, and world grooves in my truck at the ready

If anyone is interested, a lot of the aforementioned dvds are now down to $6.49 each.

Did you end up getting any of the sets? Mary (totalfitnessdvds.com) added Soul Sweat, Shakti Sweat and Dynamic Flow back to her inventory shortly after this thread was started, so there are some decent clips on her site for those.

I don't think I've listened to Tricky. Must investigate
I got Rise, Foundations, and Shakti Sweat. After looking at clips for Dynamic Flow I may go back and get that one. Or maybe they will let me edit my order?

I bought Rise when this was first posted but now I'm going to order Soul Sweat based on the music discussion. It's still 12.99 but I don't want to wait to see if it drops. Even though my current workout plan takes me through the next year.
I loved Tricky and Portishead back in the day and a lot of my favorite present day deep house has trip hop elements. I also love edm with tribal/world groove so I'm excited. I already know I like the Buti style. It's very challenging for me so I was glad to order Rise. Thanks for posting these deals!

I definitely took the opportunity of this sale to get backups of several of the DVD sets, and I even purchased Evolve and Primal Flow, which I really didn't have a lot of interest in but figured the price was worth trying them! Somehow an extra set of Buti Bands, a drawstring bag, and a few thermos/water bottles made their way into my cart as well This is what VF is all about!!

Let me know how you like Evolve and Primal Flow. I read some F bombs were dropped in Evolve. I was interested in that one before I heard that, but if the cussing isn't excessive I may still consider.

Bubbles, I’m disappointed with the review of Evolve DVD's "cursing" on Buti’s website. I feel it's unfair and probably has impacted sales. I can’t promise I didn’t miss something, but on quick preview I only found one song of concern – workout #2, 12:30 – 15:30 minute mark, chorus “I’m a f***g monster….” repeated 3 or 4 times throughout the song. The vocals weren’t very load but the words were discernible.
Ben White’s voice is strong and center stage throughout all audio segments. Eighty percent of the music is instrumental with no vocals. The words in most the vocal segments are indiscernible. But be warned, Ben often bellows out “woo” or “whooowee” when he is in a difficult pose or is out of breath……kind of quirky at first…but I got used to it…you are good unless tiny bubbles takes up the habit. Cjayd’s comments are pretty accurate. The workouts range from 45 to 57 minutes. There are no chapters, but there is a stretch/slowdown segment at the 30 minute mark which is a good stopping point for a shorter workout. I like what I saw but will be starting with the RISE workouts. There were a few poses I may never achieve but he moves on fast and I can substitute. I like the music and prefer this technique to basic yoga which I can never stick to…yawn.. Thanks to you and zraipel I was able to take advantage of the July 4th $6.49 sale. Customer service was awesome in helping me with my order. Hopefully they will have a Labor Day sale for those who missed out. |

Bubbles, I haven't tried Evolve yet! It really wasn't on my radar until it was available for such a low price, so I might not get to it for a while. But I will try to give it a shot at some point and report back, haha!!
Carly, I'm with you on yoga in general. Every time I've tried to do it, I just never ever enjoy it. Buti tricks me into liking yoga the same way Ilaria tricks me into doing squats and lunges, lol
