It was pretty cold outside today and we didn't go out for recess, this was a wonderful alternative! We did 4 of the 5 minute workouts and most of the kids were begging for more. Tomorrow we are going to do both 10 minute workouts. Teachers, be prepared to sweat if you do this with your students! :)

also left a review for 65 energy blasts. our kids love them both... the blasts are short... and these workouts are much longer so they're sweating with big smiles. Judy the host is terrific, i read she's a school teacher so she knows how to get kids attention. my two girls want to be like her

My daughter, age 7, lost interest in dance class (I think because she could not pick it up easily), so I wanted to find a way to help her coordinate her body. She loves this video - which is a lot of dancing mixed with some aerobic moves. She does have trouble doing some of the moves, but I like that it gives her a challenge. I have noticed she is getting progressively better. The moves are not simple and require both lower and upper body working together.

The video is broken up into four 5-minute routines and two 10-minute routines. The two 10-minute routines combine the 5-minute ones. This keeps her attention span, unlike a long 45 minute video. She usually chooses to do several of the routines. There is no stretching or cool down, but I am fine with that because I am not using it for fitness but to teach my girl dance and coordination (incognito).

I use this (and the 65 energy blasts) with my class of second graders and they love it (and so do I)! I love to use them in-between academic activities (like between math and writing)- it really gets them up and moving around and they can focus so much better afterward.

Picked this video up at the library not knowing what to expect...it is first class production. My kids and I loved it. They are 6 and 14, and I am 49. We all worked out to it...had a bunch of fun, and got great workout it. It has different routines. It also has excellent short fitness and health tips between segments. We love it and will probably buy our own copy. I highly recommend it.

I was looking for a motivating exercise video for my primary students. I wanted it to be short to use in between subjects as a break. This video has 6 great workouts. It's both motivating and fun. I think intermediate students would like it too.

I purchased this video for my 7 year old daughter. The instruction is very fast. Some of the action was hard for my daughter and me to follow (I am over weight and it was hard on my knees). But she was interested in it and it got her off the couch so I am glad I bought it.

The way this product description reads I thought it was two cd's but it was only one. For the price I do not think it was worth it. My nine year old tried it, but having to stop and start the next bit if you want to go longer than 10 minutes is annoying. I don't recommend it for older kids, but probably ok for smaller ones...if you are willing to pay that much for about 35 minutes! Unfortunately, I did. booo

I use the video to help motivate the kids to perform exercises during therapy sessions which helps build muscle strength

I got this for my 3rd graders because they wanted to exercise. The 5 and 10 minute workouts were perfect for us to squeeze into the day and the moves were fun too.
