This DVD delivers as advertised. It is very attractively put together and altogether well-done. They show each move many times in different ways before going on to the next move so you can really see. From front, side, with/without defenders, etc. Just about every single move features very nice footage showing some world class player putting this move on someone at full game speed and it's actually very exciting to watch. Makes you want to press pause and go out and start trying right away yourself. And, of course, you can. Honestly, in some ways I find this VCR/DVD instruction superior to a soccer camp (I attended two when I was younger). The camps were excellent, but after five days, just a memory. You get to keep the DVD, it never gets tired of showing something you're having difficulty with, etc. An excellent value in my opinion for anyone wanting to learn about the game of soccer.

I coach two teams - my 8 and 13 year old boys teams - and found this very valuable for teaching myself stuff that I then demonstrate in practice and ask the players to try. The 7-9 year olds actually pick it up better - the teenagers are "too cool for school" to do anything they haven't done since they were 6.

It is important not to underestimate kids and I found the U10 age group is ideal for teaching these juking moves since they are only just getting into passing and still like to work their way through the opposing pack.

The DVD covers each move many times from different angles, and in slow motion and regular speed. They use regular players not some kids fom central casting which is nice.

About 1/2 my kids get all the moves right but ALL of the kids develop better ball handling and are ready to take on opponents and leave them standing.

There's a little clip from an adult game for each move, and it is very helpful watching, for example, Maradonna doing "the Maradonna."

And let me tell you, there is nothing sweeter than watching a pudgy little 8 year old do a perfect Maradonna around a big athletic 9 year old leaving him standing there scratching his head.

I can give it to the older boys to watch on their own but the younger ones are too impatient to sit still and watch so they rely on me digesting it and teaching them.

We got this DVD a couple months back, and my kids have watched it dozens of times. They practice the moves in front of the TV, then they go in the yard and prctice on each other for hours on end. Great Job guys!

I bought this video to help me coach a youth team. I played D-I in college but that was a long time ago! This video has a huge amount of moves, and shown/explained very well. An under-8 team will appreciate this video, as will older youth players. My only complaint, which stops me from giving this 5 stars, is that the film footage of 'World Class' players was a bit middling. There's lots of footage from the greats (pele, garrincha, cruyff, etc) that would have been far more impressive, and effective, than what was included in the dvd. Still, I can recommend this video to players, parents, and youth coaches.

Taking bunch of over excited kids to soccer practice is always a challenge. I started playing "All the right moves" in the car and it got them engaged from start. They are pumped up when they reach the field and they try to practice the routines at home. Producers have done good job at keeping kids engaged while showing them the techniques.

I PURCHASED THIS VIDEO FOR A 13 YEAR OLD,SHE LIKED THE VIDEO.SHE VIEWS SECTIONS OF THE VIDEO A COUPLE TIMES A WEEK.THEN TAKES A BALL AND GOES PRACTICE.MANY PEOPLE HAVE ADMIRED HER NEW MOVES AND HAVE NOTICED A VAST IMPROVEMENT ON HER FOOTWORK.IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF THE VIDEO THAT HAS TAUGHT HER MANY NEW THINGS

I bought this based upon the reviews here. However, the DVD is definitely not worth the $22 I paid considering the amateurish graphics and production (with grating guitar solos), and limited content. Often, the moves do not correspond with the brief game highlights and local league players being filmed for a few seconds. I found the Manchester U DVD far above this in quality and content (and on that one you get to see actual pros doing the moves).

Over all very good. I wish there were more clips from games where these moves are made. Maybe several for each move. Also, it would be nice if they had the move from an overhead angle. I would very much recommend this, but not to anyone who plays in the Newton Indoor Sports over 35 league and is not on FC Brookline.

I bought this DVD for my U10 boys team to watch when our practice is rained out. The format is great. It shows about 10-15 different moves, first at full speed by a professional player in a real game, then slow motion, then as modeled by teenagers slowly and at all differt angles, then more at full speed and against someone. It hasn't rained yet, but I know they are going to love this DVD.

This DVD is usefulll and great to learn in chunks. I suggest people that are novice or intermediate players watch it. Once you have learned the moves shown, the DVD is not of much of a use. While learning the moves however, it is a great reference. I think it was worth the cost and can tell it has made a difference in my skill of play.
