Spicy hot and energetic, this well-designed, fun-filled Crunch Cardio Salsa workout keeps you burning body fat as you dance, wave your arms, and swing your hips to live drums with a Latin flair. Salsa, meringue, samba, and cha cha steps highlight these high-energy aerobic dance patterns, taught one step at a time, then building gradually into combinations. The footwork is fast-moving but not difficult to learn, thanks to the careful way perky instructor Giselle Roque de Escobar teaches and cues. She performs the workout accompanied by 6 bare-bellied women and one man, and an exuberant and skillful drummer. Everyone is fit, young, lean, and enthusiastic. The workout heats up quickly and burns for 40 minutes. Recommended for aerobic dance fans who want to spice up their workouts with a Latin flavor. --Joan Price

I love this video

I have had the Crunch Cardio Salsa for a while now and while I do other videos, I always come back to Giselle. For those who have a hard time with the movements, you have to have rhythm and be able to dance, lol. For those who have said they didn't work up a sweat-you're NOT dancing. That's the key, you have to learn the movements which are soooo easy, I mean, she couldn't get any simpler; and then dance like you're in a salsa club or something...you will get a workout. I've lost inches in my waist and hips. Dancing is a workout! This DVD is fun, Giselle is exciting, the drummer is great, the crew looks good and knows the moves. This is a super video!

Frustrating

This was too fast-paced for me. I had a very hard time trying to follow the steps. Also, I didn't feel like I was doing "salsa" at all. The instructor says at the end that "now you can use these steps on the dance floor!" However, you'd probably just get laughed at if you tried, because they don't look like dance steps at all.
If you really want to try salsa dancing as a workout, sign up for a salsa dancing class and skip this DVD.

Only for skilled dancers

I am an intermediate amateur salsa dancer and she still lost me within the first few minutes when she assumed that I could just segue into grapevines in opposing directions and box steps with no breakdown or slowing down of the moves to get the hang of it. I turned it off in frustration. This workout is really only right for someone with dance training who can follow an un-taught dance routine without skipping a beat.

good but some disappointment

dance steps are fine and not too difficult but steps are done to a percussion beat rather than to tunes and real latin music. I really prefer music and so this doesn't feel like dancing, just exercising, and therefore isn't as much fun.

Not what I expected !!

I am a fan of salsa music and i thought that this dvd would be fun to try and put in a part of my work outs. The instructor was just wayyyy too much. too loud , too hyper. she came off very corny at times. lol. the video is just dumb. i dont know ,i just found her annoying.The music was good and all but i just cant take her. I dont do this video often. Once in a blue. It really wasnt as good as thought it was gonna be. i have other crunch video but come on now. they need better instructors.
