Customer Reviews

Great DVD, Great Workout!
I bought this DVD to add variety to my workout routine. I am a grandparent, overweight, and now working out regularly for health reasons. I really like dance routine based exercise for working out at home, or while travelling. I became interested in this DVD for its "new slant" on an old idea.

This one is a welcome change. I read from other reviewers that it may not be authentic hula. However, I think the instructor has made appropriate modifications to make sure the routine has an aerobic component. All dance instructors I have encountered do this. She also warns against overwork for beginners, and suggests modifications. She covers all the bases.

It's fun also to be transported to Hawaii for a few minutes in the great photography, and also in the contemporary Hawaiian music.

I found this a very fresh approach and a worthwhile purchase. Highly recommended.

This video stinks
I tried this tape once and got nothing even remotely resembling a workout, because the entire time I was standing in one spot, halfheartedly swaying my hips while scratching my head in bewilderment (simultaneously!).

Note to the makers of this video: Next time, it *might* be a good idea to actually show the lower half of the instructor's body. Some of us weren't taught hula in the womb, and need to be, I don't know - instructed, perhaps?

This video is really bad.

Hillbilly Hula
I was very excited to get this video since the same company made a very enjoyable bellydance series. But this was nothing but a let down. It was difficult to follow the instructor and the music resembled that of a hillbilly ho-down. The moves are presented quickly with no practice move or smooth transition into the next move. With practice it would probably get easier. However, with the annoying music, it's difficult to make it through the video once! The ultimate goal of the video, as defined by the instructor, is to be able to perform the "sunshine hula" dance which looks like it should be the official state dance of Arkansas instead of Hawaii. I would skip this video and just buy one of the belly dance ones. They use a lot of the same moves but the belly dance one is easier to follow and has better music.
