Video is set in a studio overlooking a pond.
Music is light and I really didn't notice it. There is a
3 minute warm up followed by three segments. Each segment
is 8 minutes long and each one repeats the moves in the
earlier segment but the moves get tougher. The segments
can be done alone. I do the entire tape. There is a 3
minute cool down. Total length of tape is 30 minutes. No
weights or toning bands or cords needed. Just a mat for
floor work. There are leg abductions, plies, squats. Most
moves are standing followed by 2-3 minutes of floor work.
Great toning workout for the legs. I used this video for
a long time before advancing to weight training for the
legs. It is an easy to follow video that has very basic
moves. Not a lot of variety like Firm videos, Firm fans
may be bored with this. I stuck with this video for a
long time. I still don't think I've outgrown it! Great
video for beginner or intermediate level. I did notice
more "firm" legs by using this video.
Instructor comments: Kathy Kaehler is a calm
instructor who gives good cues. She smiles and talks but
is not chatty or perky. There are two modifiers in this
video, beginner and advanced which allows you to pick who
you wish to follow. Kathy's form is good.
