 A fun, effective workout if you catch-on quickly . February 20, 2000

This is an enjoyable and challenging workout in that it has upbeat music, happy performers, a stimulating instructor and fun patterns that change enough to prevent boredom. HOWEVER, you would benefit if you were already a natural at step and well-coordinated. The abdominal workout is EXCELLENT...one of my favorites of all my 70 plus aerobic videos. Keli Roberts is a great instructor with excellent form and technique. You should atleast be in moderately good shape to do this video, it is not for beginners or slow-learners.
I LOVE this tape! August 5, 2000

I really like this tape. I've had it for years and although I've tried other tapes, I keep coming back to this one. I agree with another reviewer that you have to know the lingo to do this tape so it may not be the best for a beginner. But I diagree with another reviewer that said she doesn't tell you what foot to use. She often taps the shoulder of the foot she wants you to use and she's not difficult to follow once you know what she's saying. I admit, it took me one or two times to catch on, but that made it all the more rewarding once I did. And I also agree that the relaxation part is really good. I also like the fact that it has 3 levels so you can still get a good workout if you don't feel like doing the whole tape that day. I think Keli is wonderful.
TIMELESS! March 9, 2001

I have owned this tape for about five years. I try new step tapes all the time, and keep going back to this one. I think it is great for all steppers, Keli starts out with more basic steps, and has three levels of difficulty/intensity. You can go on if you feel comfortable, or just rewind the darn thing and try again! There are other instructors in the background showing you the lower impact alternatives in case you are not as fiesty as Keli. Her short ab workout at the end is great, I feel pain each and every time i complete it. The relaxation part at the end is a little hokie, but it does relax you. Best of all, the workout isn't a wimpy twenty minutes. It is long, so if you can't finish it the first, second or third time, you have somethig to look forward to.
 Frustrating Video April 26, 2002
8 out of 10 found this review helpful
I have been involved with step aerobics for many years both in live classes and using videos. This particular video was the most frustrating video I have ever tried to step through. I even put this tape away and then brought it out later to give it another try. It was a waste of my time. She doesn't cue very well and she is hard to understand. By the time you think you might be getting it, she changes the move without cueing first. If you want a good video, use Kathy Smith's step aerobics. All of her step videos are great!
 Not for beginners!! November 9, 2003
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I just tried this video for the first time today. It is 50 minutes long; the first 6 minutes are for warm up, then up until 40 minutes there is the workout - 3 levels - and then two minute cool down and then about 8 minute of abs (quite good ab workout) then a few minutes of the end with overal stretch/cool down (didn't do this part).
From my initial viewing, I like this video. It's very energetic and many of the moves are seen in other videos - which makes it easier. Even though its an old video it didn't feel too dated and the instructor is cool - not annoying like many.
My only problem with it is that she doesn't give decent instructions, especially for moves coming up and which foot to start with and the camera pans right away to those behind her so you can't figure it out for yourself until a few reps have passed. Its very choreographed so dance/step experience will help.
If you're a beginner, or someone who just wants a decent aerobic workout, try Step Reebok: The Video (1992) which has really good instructions. I got that video free when I bought my reebok step and it really is great.
Though keep in mind, with any video there's always going to be a learning curve so no matter what you buy, you're always going to be confused little at first - but keep with it, it does get easier.
