Level
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.
Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).
Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.
Aerobics Impact
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.
Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.
Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.
Aerobics Choreography
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.
Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.
Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Certified instructor description: Both workouts include a mix of three toning styles: traditional, functional fitness and multi-muscle exercises. The blend of techniques adds interest while challenging your body in different ways (e.g. an arm-and-core functional fitness move that advances into a classic all-arm routine and ends with a hammer curl/squat compound exercise).
In addition, many of the “traditional” exercises are intensified with subtle position and angle modifications. Straight-forward, coach-style cuing.
Requires two sets of dumbbells (e.g. 3 and 10 lb.).
