Don't waste your money!!!!!!!!, July 3, 2007
This review is from: Latin Salsa -- Fitness Workout -- Burn Fat and Sculpt Abs (DVD)
I bought this and was excited because I take latin cardio classes and wanted something for the days I don't go. First let me say my daughters have shot better video with their camera. The instructor didn't give proper cues for following and her back up dancers(if they can be called that) were horrible and also found it hard to follow her.I don't know what they were thinking when they made this. I wouldn't even give this away for free. It's in recycables as I type this review. Would have given it .5 star but they didn't have it as a choice.

Buy Only If You Love Laughing, December 7, 2009
This review is from: Latin Salsa -- Fitness Workout -- Burn Fat and Sculpt Abs (DVD)
I have bought this DVD 7 months ago and tonight was my first time viewing the DVD. Sometimes, before I do a workout, I tend to view my new workouts DVDs and that's what I have done with this workout.
The instructor doesn't really gives cues. I like to be given cues, during an exercise. The instructor knew what she was doing, but her friends didn't. I don't know why she has chosen to do a workout video with her two friends, if they didn't know salsa. Maybe the two women were her students, but still, if your students haven't master the steps, don't use them. The backup women were lost in this video. One of the ladies. The tall one is the back, was striking poses. She wasn't even trying to do what the instructor was doing.
The video is not quality. Maybe the instructor should have done this video by herself or at least get other people that knew what they were doing.
I couldn't stop laughing, watching this video. I might try it later for the fun of it. When, I don't really want to be serious about working out, but just having fun. Who knows I might just get a good workout. If I try the video and get a good workout, I will edit this review. I kow that I will not be able to change my star rating, but I can put my new rating in my review.
If you want to try to video, try your library first, to see if they carry it and view it first. Don't buy this DVD, unless it's on sale for dirt cheap at a store or at a garage sale.

Really bad in all ways, October 15, 2010
This review is from: Latin Salsa -- Fitness Workout -- Burn Fat and Sculpt Abs (DVD)
Horrible sound. Instructor doesn't give instructions and, worst to my mind, has no feel for the music, no sense of rhythm. She hurls her body around, and her movements are jerky, not fluid as most dance requires. Plus, she does certain movements that are notoriously bad to do, such as backward neck rolls and abrupt squats mid-motion. And she calls it "aerobic," which it isn't likely to be for anyone. Should be pulled from the market for both aesthetic and safety reasons!
