I love the concept of the exercises. Each set is 8 minutes long. I started out doing 2 different sets for a total of 16 minutes. I'm now up to 4 sets every day which is doable for me. I agree with others who say that the last woman (Cary) is very, very hard to watch. Not sure why he picked her to be on the DVD. I'm certain it's a man thing! She seems lost, does a lot of the exercises like a 3-year-old would and I find it completely distracting. I usually watch Doug because he actually looks like he wants to be there. I would actually buy a different DVD if I knew it would have other people exercising with Jaime. Keep Doug, just replace the two women. Other than that, I find it's a great workout.

Don’t let the picture on the cover or the cover description fool you! This is a great workout dvd. Definitely not just for the older ones. I’m 50 something and have been exercising everyday for over 20 years. I’d consider myself to be intermediate. I love that this is more of a strength training workout using 3-5 pound weights. There is hardly any jumping around (except for jacks) or floor exercises (so no up and down). With each segment being only 8 minutes I can do 3-4 at a time for a variety and get a great 30 minute workout. I wish there were more segments focused strictly on abs and core but they are incorporated into each segment. I am so glad I purchased this and my only regret is waiting so long.

I just received the DVD today, so I haven't had a chance to use it yet. Inside the case there is an insert that says you can go to a website to get your free bonus items, or you can scan a code. I went the website and the free items were listed, but there was no way to actually get the free items. I scanned the code and nothing happened. The only thing that happened on the website was it wanted me to join a community--for a fee of course. I just want the items, the fitness tracker, the meal planner etc. I don't want to pay an additional amount of money when I already purchased the DVD. Very disappointed because of this.

Very good for stretching and getting heart rate up.

This is great because I can do it in my home no matter what the weather is doing. It's easy and I feel great doing it. Every senior who doesn't have any major disabilities should do these exercises even if you don't need to loose weight. You will be so much more limber and feel great.

I just couldn’t get this to start Idk what exactly happened but the VCR just couldn’t read the CD to begin So have to return

Muy aburrido

The exercises were easy to follow and enjoyable

Really impressed with this DVD and I wish Nestor would do more and cover all the other Latin dances as well. This is dance for individuals. It is NOT couple dancing. The dances and there are 5 different ones are all broken into 2 separate sections. The tutorial steps to learn which are done at a reasonable speed and are each 5 minutes and then the full on dance steps for the workout which each last 20 minutes. This gives you 5 different dance options to choose from. There is also both an excellent warm up and a cool down provided for each dance separately as well. Nestor teaches all of these warm ups and cool downs and also 2 of the dances, Salsa and Meringue. His partner Amanda does the other 3 dances Cha Cha, Samba and Pasodoble sadly. I would have much preferred it all to been led by him. He knows about dance and she clearly doesnt as she keeps telling people not to dance with feet grounded! Anyone who has any kind of Latin dance experience including Nestor will tell you and quite rightly just the opposite. Nestor is both Cuban and a trained former professional ballet dancer. It shows. He does all of this programme without a bead of sweat, and he keeps you going at it too. He is graceful and fluid and a joy to watch and the one to follow when learning all of this. He is also the one to listen and take heed of irrespective of anything Amanda may say. There are other class people in the background who are in fairness all different shapes and sizes and ages too but Nestor is the swan and you'll learn from him. Amanda just shows off. For Salsa it is a fairly fast paced routine and in all dances perhaps with the exception of the strange Samba which is included on here, a really fun dance dvd. I love Cha Cha and Salsa and Meringue most of all. You will enjoy it though because you will know you have done it, even though it doesnt feel like an endurance workout. Nestor will also get you fit without the real slog. It's a DVD that is actually something I happily do and look forward to doing. I believe anyone else who buys it will feel the same way and get as much from it too. This DVD should be sold as more accessible in the UK. It's a US import and I have a multi region player but it should be all region. I shall do all I can to promote this excellent DVD and this is my 3rd copy purchased, these two being to give to friends who have seen mine and asked more about it. It's only just become available on Amazon again so get it quick. This is the best easy to learn dance DVD I have found anywhere. Really I cannot recommend it more. BTW I have no connection to anyone involved in this and paid full price for all my copies. I am a female who is moderately fit and active. I'm also 57 years young.

I have an enormous collection of fitness DVDs and comparatively, this is good for more mature people. But, not for beginners, because there is really very little with regards to proper form for a true beginner. Also, 8 minutes a day won't do much, but it's a start. You could repeat each segment to make it a 16 min workout per day. It certainly won't bring you back in shape in 14 days.

I bought this months ago and started doing these fun, effective 8-min workouts in this format: 8mins x3 and 8minsx4 workouts and I am able to fit in my little black dress again. This is an effective and sweat producing low impact workout, especially in this combination. I'm happy to see they've made a male version of this workout series which is cardio, tone and strength training. I highly recommend this low impact as advertised workout! It's the only workout I'm doing now as well as, the 24minute Taebo Basic Workout which is high impact and Billy's 22 minute body shape low impact workout on YouTube!
