Summary: Another great workout with Alison Davis
Comment: I have liked everything that Alison has done with The Firm, and this one was another hit with me. I do admit that it was not the easiest choreography the first time through, but I did okay. Yeah, it can be a little frustrating when you don't always feel like you're on top of things, but on the bright side it gives you something to work for and to feel good about when you master more and more of it. I thought about giving this four stars because of the times that I was confused, but once you get it, it really is a good workout; and isn't that why we buy videos - because we plan on doing them over and over? So I say give Alison credit for a good workout - it's not a bad DVD just because you may not feel like an old pro the first time you do it. My advice though - do this on a day when you're alert and ready for anything, because Alison will keep you on your toes!

Summary: Love It!
Comment: I love to dance and this is just perfect workout! Don't really bother with doing the steps perfectly and you'll be just fine. Like Allison says, do it your way, just have fun.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not for beginners, much too fast
Comment: I am a beginner and I thought this video would be OK. I want to lose about 15 pounds. I was shocked to see that the instructor immediately jumped right into complicated footwork! No warm-up (stretching like you should to prevent injury), no breaking down the steps or going slowly! Only for very advanced dancers. Much, much too fast. Also, she wears black pants and black shoes so it is very difficult to see the way her feet are moving. White shoes would have made it much easier. I give this product ZERO stars.

Summary: Good for what it is..
Comment: I wanted to try a dancier workout and step away from super aerobics, and this definitely fit the bill. It had all these great dance moves, except the "jive" segment(horrible, lost my sweat), kept you moving but at the end of it I felt unfulfilled. I realized this would just about only take the place of a 45 minute brisk walk. Did I sweat? yes. Was it kinda fun? yes. Was it a good workout?not really. After I did it I ended up doing my Complete Weight Training video with Jen Carmen for an hour to feel like I did something. I should also mention that I just had my second child and at 250lbs this wasn't terribly difficult and I don't think is a good cardio staple. It doesn't contain the ingredients for quicker weight loss. Not a complete waste though, I think I will do it when I don't feel like really working out or when I can't go for a walk because of weather..although it may be a waste of time that could be better spent doing laundry..

Summary: Too difficult for me, but a good DVD.
Comment: Tried this exercise video, but it's a little too fast for me. I love to dance, but I found it difficult for me to follow. Looks like it would be a great workout for someone younger than 52.
