I bought this at a retail store on sale, not sure what to expect. I was happily surprised when I realized how challenging it was. I started to sweat during the warmup! This workout will really work your abs and hips. I'm using it to tone up my core muscles and to lay a foundation for taking some dance classes.

Besides the fact that it's well-designed and presented by real ballroom dancers (with amazing bodies - not an ounce of fat on them), there are several features that make this workout so good. The music really keeps you moving. You can choose to watch the video from the front or watch the back view (which is my favorite because it is easier to mimic the movements of the dancers). You can instantly change back and forth between the views, skip to certain segments within each workout, or get help in explaining how to do various moves. As the other reviewer said, sometimes it's a little bit repetitive but it's never boring. I think it's fun - much more fun that doing my Pilates videos or doing traditional stomach-toning exercises. I even got my husband to join in and try it with me and he said it was fun but hard! It's a very well-done workout and I highly recommend it.

I just bought these on a whim and LOVE them. I have a knee problem so I have to stay low impact. I do these workouts with no problem. The thing that strikes me the most about these dvds is that the instructors truly look like they are having SO much fun teaching.

I love the movements, and haven't yet tried the actual dance instruction bonus feature. It's enough to do the workout. I'm always sweating and having fun!

If you've ever done a belly dance workout, Rania or the twins, I think it makes for a quicker learning curve for the hip movements, shoulder shimmies, etc. However, it's WAY more of a cardio workout than the bellydance videos that I have.

Overall, great workout, gets you sweating, it's fun!

The discs provide a really good workout but some of the dances are pretty tough. I have continued working through and have gotten a pretty good hang of them though! I would recommend them - I saw results very quickly!!!

I have tried 6 or 7 other dance workout programs and this is the first one that actually made me sweat. The instructors are real dancers so their technique and movements are well done. I love to salsa and swing dance and part of the reason I bought these videos was to improve my style. They will not actually teach you how to dance, but if you work out to the videos you will at least be comfortable with the basic movements so that it makes learning far easier.

There are a lot of repedative movements in the videos, but I appreciate those because it gives you a chance to practice. Also, the dvds are extremely versatile. You can push a button at any time and they explain how to do the movements and you can view from the front or the back.

Great workout for your waist!

My wife absolutely loves it!! Not only does it give her a great workout, she's also learned some new moves too! I can tell the difference already in the way her clothes are fitting...would most definetly recommend this product to anyone who wants to trim down and learn some dance moves at the same time!

I enjoy the workout DVDs a lot. They really work on your middle section and lower body. Some DVDs duplicate a bit but I think they are great exercises any way. The only downside is that if you have a bad knee, some exercises might cause a bit of problem. Just be careful not to overdo it. I would recommend this to everyone.

I ordered and paid over $40 for this club mix program that should include the 4 dvds... instead 2 weeks after the purchase i finally recieve my package and i instead receive the starter 4 disc package! I was furious and the only way to contact the seller was by email... i emailed the seller right after opening my package and i even checked my order history to be sure i was not mistaken but i was right i recieved the wrong set, i still (several weeks later) have not received a reply to my email or the correct package! i am not a core rhythms beginner and i am still upset that i wasted over $40 and did not recieve what i paid for! I never had a problem ordering anything online until now!

THE SELLER WAS "MANIA MEDIA" SO PLEASE BE AWARE OF WHO YOU ARE BUYING FROM!

Three out of the 4 DVDs couldn't be read with any of my 2 DVD drives. They didn't have scratches but they were freezing every 10 secs. My drives are working well with others DVDs. I returned them.

I've always found prices much cheaper on Amazon. I found this exact DVD at Best Buy for 39.99.

LOVE IT! I have some dance experience and found the choreography fairly easy to follow, but even after doing these for several months now, I still find them engaging and fun. There's always something to work on and improve and, if you're really working with the video, you'll be sweating your hips off. Most fun way to get my cardio. Period.
