I like the 10 Minute Solution: Fat Blasting Dance Mix DVD because I find it convenient enough to use it throughout the day. I can do a quick mini-workout in the morning to get my blood pumping, another some time in the afternoon and one before bedtime. And I know I’ve exercised 30 minutes in total that day, without the pressure of overexerting myself in one go.

You can do anything for just 10 minutes! Even if you’re tired, you never have time to think “God, how long until it’s over?”

Luscious – BellyDance Workout for Beginners DVD Review

by Natalie Belford on June 23, 2009

I loved the Luscious Belly Dance Workout for Beginners DVD. It was my first time doing a belly dancing workout and I tried not to pressure myself to get everything right at the first try. Just followed the tutorial and learned slowly.

The routines presented in this dvd were great! The instructional section really breaks down each move to ensure the viewer understands the dynamics behind each belly dance step.

Callanetics 10 Years Younger in 10 Hours DVD Review

by Natalie Belford on June 21, 2009

Ok, the leotards and hairstyles are so outdated and the background music makes you feel like you’re in an elevator, but the actual Callanetics 10 Years Younger in 10 Hours workout is fantastic. You may roll your eyes at the leotards and the music, but this is the real thing and will give you visible results right away. I have completed 7 hours so far and I can already tell a difference. My obliques are firming up as well as my abs.

Ever since I bought a Stability Ball I’ve found it to be one of the most fun ways to exercise. I have bought some of the “10 Minute Solution” DVDs and enjoy most of them.

Lead by a warm, friendly instructor (Kimberly Spreen) this DVD is divided into 5, Ten-minute segments: “Butt & Thigh Tone-Up”, “Arms &Shoulders Sculptor”, “Firm, Flat Abs”, “Total Body Fat Burner”, and “Ultra Stretch.”

New York City Ballet: The Complete Workout DVD Review

by Natalie Belford on June 19, 2009

Though I have taken many dance classes, including ballet, I still found the New York City Ballet: Complete Workout DVD challenging the first few times I did it. I felt and saw results (mostly in my legs/glutes) after completing volume 1 for the first time. I’ve never been one for traditional workouts.

I had wanted to try Zumba for the longest time so I bought the Zumba Fitness: Latin Dance Workout Routine DVD. Tried it and it doesn’t feel like you are working out and you get to learn new dance routines! It breaks up the monotony of exercising, so I don’t get bored just going to the gym.

Obviously these DVDs are NOT as good as a live class, but if you want an introduction to a Zumba workout, they are a useful beginning. If you are not used to following movement on a DVD beware that the directions are first given in a different language and then followed by an English translation.

Leslie Sansone: 5 Day Slim Down DVD Review

by Natalie Belford on June 16, 2009

The Leslie Sansone 5 Day Slim Down workout is made up of five walking cycles all of which are around 30 minutes each. The first workout is the easiest; it’s a basic march, kick, step touch and knee lift routine. The next three, incorporate body toning (arms, abs and lower body) which make it a little more challenging and then finally comes the hardest of them which is the speed walking routine and it honestly is intense and more challenging than you’d think.
