Movie Reviews of Kukuwa Dance WorkoutMovie Review: Fast Paced Repetitive Dance Cardio Summary: 4 Stars
If you like workouts where they don't stop, this is for you. There are three workouts, the first is 30 min, the second is 45 min & the third is 60 min. It's the woman in the picture with 3 girls & 2 guys (all athletic) behind her on what looks like a mansion's backyard w/a pool & palm trees behind. The music is semi decent for a workout video, no lyrics, just music w/a good fast beat that has a Caribbean feel.
She doesn't give that many dance instruction, out of the entire DVD, she only 1-2x ever slows down or counts. One or more dancers will show the modified/slower version of the moves, sometimes out of tiredness themselves, they start dropping, though I can't blame them, LOL.
All the moves are relatively simple, mostly cha-chas, merenges & simple African moves, steps, mambos, jumps, etc. If there's anything she thinks is a little harder, she breaks it down, but she is always moving.
The first workout was very simple & though fast, the moves were uninspiring, more aerobics then dance & I didn't like it.
The second & third had better moves that you've seen around at gyms or clubs, etc. more sexy & cool then the 1st, but nothing that hip.
I was sweating & could not keep up at all for the life of me. If you want to sweat & pass out, here you go!
Take off 2 stars if you expect complicated or stylish moves, non-repetition or great music.

Movie Review: very good intermediate cardio workout Summary: 4 Stars
What I like most about this workout is that there is the option to try a 30, 45, or 60 minute routine. The 30 minute segment is too easy for a non-beginner, but the 45 and 60 minute routine gets your heart rate up. At times, the moves are a little repetitive, but what's great is that if you are a fast learner, Kukawa "keeps it moving..." she doesn't slow down to over-explain the moves. I like that because a lot of DVDs take too much time showing how to perform relatively simple moves. Also, I like how the performers were not "Hollywood Hotties," but just regular looking people. The last thing I want to look at when I'm working out are several pairs of silicone implants! The music would've been better if it were live, and I would've liked to hear a little "cultural" explanation of where some of the moves derived from. Overall-- a great DVD to add to your repertoire.
Movie Review: Kukuwa Dance Workout Summary: 4 Stars
I'm not exactly a beginner and the 30 minute segment got me sweating. It has fun combination of simple dance movements. For those who don't dance -me included- the steps are easy to learn after a few times. Remember this is not a dance video. It's a dance workout video. Kukuwa also is very energetic and her personality makes this an enjoyable workout.
Movie Review: Good Workout Summary: 4 Stars
Wow! I have yet to master this DVD. You get 3 versions and i must say as much as i love it, i have not been able to run though the 45min and the 60min versions without taking breaks here and there. I like the mixture of African dances with Latin moves.
Movie Review: fun! Summary: 4 Stars
Make sure you clear the way before you start doing this workout. There is lot's of jumping and traveling moves. I do like it, I just wish that there was more African style dancing than anything else.
