Movie Reviews of The Firm - Cardio Dance Fusion
Movie Review: Love it! But be patient when trying to learn the moves...
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a fun addition to my Firm DVD collection. I have about 7 Firm DVDs and 4 of them are taught by Alison Davis. I like her because she is not annoying and usually communicates the moves clearly. I'd say I'm at an intermediate/advanced level when it comes to at home DVD workouts. I use this one when I don't want to do weight training, as it is strictly dancing and cardio.
The DVD starts with a quick warm up segment, then moves to a salsa/mambo-like segment. After that is a high energy "jive" session, which includes moves such as the "Charleston" and the "rock step". It was pretty fun although definitely the hardest to follow. The last segment (my least favorite) is a ballet type segment, followed by a cool down.
This DVD is a nice change from the usual Firm workouts. It has good music and doesn't get boring at all. I have to admit, it takes several whirls with this video to learn the steps. I've probably done it about 30 times at this point and can do the steps without messing up but it took many tries. Also, there are a few instances where Alison miscues -for example, she says to kick the left leg yet she means the right leg, or she says to do four kicks when she actually only does 2. But after doing it several times I've picked up on these mistakes and now they don't bother me anymore.
All in all, I really enjoy this video and think it's a great one to use on the days that you want just a cardio workout without weights.
