Customer Reviews

Petra's personality does not work for me
Petra Kolber has demonstrated 3 levels of intensity: with her as the least intense and the 2 back ups as medium and hard respectively.
If you are an apartment dweller, this is not recommended because she uses floor space: grapevines, wide strides.
I have a personal issues with her old fashioned perkiness. I use her work-out if I want a break from my favorites.

I tend to use the DVD more often for the bonus John Baptiste 1o minute tune up yoga. Salutations, upward dog, downward dog, Warrior 1, 2, forward and reverse triangle.

BAD
I shut the DVD off after less than 5 min and tossed it in the thrift shop pile. The coordinated steps were impossible to follow. I will stick with Leslie Sansone as she is easy for the average person to follow.

Love Petra, like the video
I had a lot of Petra's VHS and just love her (Dance Step should be put on DVD, by the way). She is easy to follow, encouraging and positive, but not annoying. The program definitely gives you a good workout - and you can vary how intense you want to go. Although I am not an exercise fanatic (age 38, working mother) I would have liked more weight training. Overall, I like it.
