10 Minute Solution Latin Dance Mix |
    too difficult |
| i purchased this video and i must say that i was very disappointed. this workout is too difficult because she doesn't really do a good job of cuing and letting you know what she is going to do. i constantly found myself stopping to watch her do the moves then i did working out myself. - posted by jacinda on 4/6/2009 |

    OK, but takes a while to get into |
| I liked this one once I finally managed to get the movements down. Unfortunately, that took 7-8 sessions per segment just for the first two. I was too discouraged to really try the other segments much. Once you can follow along adequately, it's tons of fun, but the instructor doesn't explain steps very well and just seeing her feet (or hips) moving doesn't always really help me understand what I'm supposed to do. It might be easier and more enjoyable for someone who is more familiar with dance steps and Latin dance in general already. - posted by Sara on 3/31/2009 |

    A Keeper! |
| This has become one of my favorite lighter day workouts. I usually do step and tae bo and kickboxing. Once a week I like something that is a bit lighter and fun but burns enough calories. This is it for me. All 5 routines are fun with good Latin music. Stella is a friendly instructor who keeps you moving. She rarely slows down but repeats each move a bit so you learn it. Each of the 5 dances has only 6-7 "steps", but each step builds with added arm movements, added hips, and then combining the steps with each other. It somehow all works to make the time go by fast. Because you move your arms and body a lot in the dancing and because Stella rarely slows down you do end up with a nice calorie burn. I wear a heart rate monitor--normal weight and older than 40. Each routine burns between 70-80 calories, for a sweet total of 400 for 50 minutes. - posted by Robin K on 2/1/2009 |

    Glad I bought this one too! |
| I purchased both of Stella's videos and was not let down by either of them! 10 minute solutions is perfect for when I don't have a lot of time to squeeze in my workout. It's fun and easy to follow and I love Stella's style. Can't wait to see more videos from her!!! - posted by Jennifer on 7/21/2008 |

    Good Workout |
| I think this is a pretty good workout because it gets my heart rate up but it's hard for me to follow so I'm not sure how much I will use it. - posted by Lisa on 7/5/2008 |

    Good Workout |
| I do like this workout more than expected and wearing a heart-rate monitor as I always do, I burned more calories than expected. More than some other latin/salsa workouts--Nice! I think Stella's cuing on this is better than on her Dance Off Inches DVD, and the variety of moves in great, more variety than I expected. Yet, it's not too complex to learn right away. It is a nice 50 minutes, a little longer than many Dance DVDs and this will be added to my regular rotation. Two caveats only--be sure you like Latin-type movement (lots of hips, cha-chas, mambos, etc.) because this is 100% Latin and there is only the instructor, no students.

    Very boring! |
| I would not recommend this video unless you are an absolute beginner and horribly out of shape. The moves are very boring and repetitive. I recommend her other video - dance off the inches. - posted by Laura on 3/27/2008 |

    Not a favorite! |
| I buy almost every dance DVD. This one was boring... too many of the same moves. I was yawning after 10 minutes. - posted by Linda on 2/29/2008 |

    Very fun workout! |
| Just got this video today, and I love it! I am intermediate/advanced exerciser, but definitely found myself sweating through these routines! I know that if I do this a few times a week, I will end up with very toned legs and hips. The dancing is fun and really does not seem like exercise, except for the sweat factor! This kept my heart rate up, where some other dance videos have not. Definitely recommended! - posted by Kelly on 2/19/2008 |

    I am insane about this workout! |
| I just bought this and it is my favorite of all my dance workouts. I feel I am getting a great workout, the time flies and Stella is so authentic and charming. I love Latin music and this is what I've been looking for for a long time. - posted by Robin on 1/26/2008 |
