Great moves, but too short!!
Added 8/21/2000
I bought this video because I love Donna Richardson's other videos and thought I would give this one a try. Although the moves are funky and fun, each segment is only about 7 to 8 minutes long making her segment only about twenty minutes long. I barely break out a sweat! I wish her segment was a bit longer. The taichi warm-up and yoga cooldown are very slow moving and quite boring, they also don't seem to match with Donna's style. For a great workout try Donna Richardson's three-day rotation which includes circuit toning, kick boxing and a dance workout.

This video is hard to follow and the music is dated

This video is hard to follow because she moves very quickly and the camera is not always at a good position for someone viewing the video to follow. The music is dated.

This video is fun, funky and energetic.
Added 12/1/1998
This video starts with a martial arts warm up, then there are 3 levels of funky aerobics that get you pumping and dancing. The moves are somewhat challenging to follow for the first time and the background is a little outdated but her energy is catchy and you have a great time dancing. The yoga cool down is somewhat lame and the transition is abrupt.

disappointed

I'm glad I only borrowed this one from the library! The aerobics segment lasted less than 20 minutes, not even long enough to get breathless and break a sweat.

Not a full workout
Added 2/21/2002
I found the warm up to be horrible, I wasn't sure exactly what I was watching or what I should be doing, and it made no sense. There was no cool down session after jumping around and performing "Attitude Aerobics". You certainly have to have some form of an attitude to do this tape. I found the music dated, and it did not motivate me to want to continue execerising. The moves are done at a quick speed and are repetitive, also you are not sure what exercise is supposed to work which body part. I own other tapes by Donna Richardson that I truly enjoy, however this tape was not quite the workout I was hoping for.

Great Aerobics, Poor warmup & cooldown
Added 6/24/2001
When you start playing this tape, you're going to wonder if you got the wrong tape. The warm up is by someone other than Donna, and is just wierd. There's no talking -- no instructing on the correct way to do anything, and it's the same moves over and over. And I certainly wasn't warmed up by it. Then Donna comes on and leads you through some high energy, interesting aerobics. And when she's through, you simply stop. No cool down. You go right into a yoga stretch with another woman who talks for a while before it even starts. The exercise just ends too abrubtly, with no chance to truly cool down.
