I got this video for Christmas one year and was really appalled that someone would give it as a gift. I did need to lose some weight at the time. After I tried it though, I found out that I liked it and continued using it. It is really easy to get into after you do it a few times-it does take a few tries to get used to it so don't think that it will be easy right away. It is not an easy workout for someone who does not work out a lot so it is a good tape for a beginner. I did it for a few months and lost around 30 pounds with cutting back on junk food. The people who are in the video (with the exception of the instructor) are regular people who even screw up a couple of times so it is a relief to see that not everyone is a fitness freak. If you can get past the bad hair and 80's workout clothes, I think you will like it. The music however is really boring, it is not even good '80s music but it is not too fast or too slow so overall it is not that bad. I think that if you give it a chance, you will like it.

This low-impact aerobic workout is great for beginners that are hoping to enjoy exercising! The steps that are done to top 80s hits are clearly shown. An appropriate warm up and cool down period also is important, and this video talks about why this is so. The workout is timed very well...to the point one might not believe it's time to cool down already! A very well made & easy to follow tape that is highly recommended for the beginner who doesn't know where to start.

This video really gets your heart pumping and makes you break a sweat. The video starts with two warm up songs ("Who's Zoomin' Who" & "I Can Dream About You"). These warmup songs get you prepared for the five song workout ("Celebration", "Something Special", "Oh Shiela", "Mad About You", & "Bit By Bit"). These five songs give you a great workout. The tape ends with a cool down and stretch song ("Cool It Now"). Overall, this tape is great and I reccomend it to anyone who wants a good workout. For more dancing, try the 50's, 60's, & 70's tapes.

My mother rented this video along with dance away to the 60's and 70's when I was 5 or 6 years old and I never forgot the dance away series. Me never forgetting these videos, especially this video dance away to the 80's when I was only 5 yrs hopefully gives you an idea of What an excellent tape is. This tape is full of chart topping hits, and you will just have a very good time doing the exercises. I hope my review is helpful to you.
