5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, good music, challenging, rewarding!, April 6, 2002

By	Rizzo (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Best Yet Live is a 60 minute strenuous challenging jazzercize workout. The video, I believe, is from '85-87 and doesn't have a dated look. Judi Missett, founder of Jazzercise, conducts this workout in front of a very large class. Unlike the standard videos with exercisers, the camera faces the back of the class, who face Judi. She works alone in this segment.

Routinely, Judi will choose music (hit songs) even though the music is NOT by the original artists, it sure sounds fun compared to those dreadful techno beat instrumentals we are SO accustomed to working out to.

Judi's performance is upbeat and genuine. She communicates frequently, advises the correct movements or demonstrates incorrect moves. When you work with her, you feel like you are in a real class, versus the "Denise Austin" pained and canned performances/pitches.

Now, Jazzercise is a departure from the average video workouts. It involves complete body toning, lots of upper torso movements. You don't need to know how to dance, because it really isn't dancing! It is fun aerobic movements, easy to follow, even for first timers. As always, the "lighter side" instruction allows a more comfortable pace.

After an effective warm-up, follows an exerting aerobic segment, 20 minutes. Then, a rigorous upper body toning involves some "gold old fashion pushups". Tummy and derrierre work may include 40-50 movements per leg and over 50-70 movements for the tummy. It is not exactly easy, but you could do this with a few trys. I recommend Jazzercise; it is different, fun, and very rewarding.......MzRizz

5.0 out of 5 stars Best exercise video ever!!!, March 5, 2008

By	catlady4ever (Staten Island, NY) - See all my reviews

I agree completely with Rizzo (the first 5-star reviewer) completely... I have been doing this routine on and off since the 80's, and to me it far, far surpasses any other exercise videos/dvds I've tried. Judy Misset (sp?), the founder of Jazzercise and the instructor on the video, is upbeat and personable... she doesn't get on my nerves like many of the other instructors do. Instead, she's friendly, positve, and encouraging, and over time you start to feel as if you're working out with a "friend". It's obvious too that the other "students" in the video are truly enjoying themselves!


It took some weeks (months?) for me to be able to get thru the entire tape - it really is quite challenging! But then after several more months, I added hand and leg weights gradually to make the workout even more challenging, especially while doing the low impact format. Misset shows both the high and low impact versions of the exercises, so I don't know why the other reviewer said the tape is dangerous. In fact, one of the students in the video does the whole tape in low impact mode to demonstrate the exercises to us.

This is the only exercise video thru the years that I am able to do over and over and over again without getting very bored, thanks to the great music and inspiration from Misset. For years my morning routine was to get up, have coffee, do this video, take a shower and leave for work by 7:45 a.m. feeling super energized and in a great mood that would last throughout the day! I hope someday this video is offered as a dvd as I'll bet I'll be doing it on and off for the rest of my life!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, Fun, Fun, October 24, 2008

By	DJ (USA) - See all my reviews

I had this years ago and loved it. Loved the music, loved the moves! Very nice blend of aerobic and light toning. There is some floorwork at the end, as well. I wish this would come out on DVD!
