I bought the DVD under the impression (deluded) that it would teach me how to dance like they did in Dirty Dancing. Because I am sort of new to dancing I struggled. The presenters couldn't get more cheesier, and although some of the moves were easy to understand, I just felt it lacked that thing I was looking for. Fun. It looked more like hard work than fun, and you permanently felt like it was a DVD to be shared and enjoyed with friends not just by yourself.
I would recommend it for girls nights in though.

Complete disappointment
Review date: 2008-05-02 Rating: 4 out of 10
I was so excited about this dvd but feel utterly disappointed. Yes, the choreography has some original bits from the movie, yes, the routines are ultimately done on some songs from the movie. However, it never comes close to the level of the dances in the movie.
When people replied that it was quite difficult I was quite happy, as I'm an amateur latin dancer and didn't want it to be too easy. Also, it had to be a bit challenging so I can work on my stamina. Unfortunately I didn't even come close to being out of breath. I think this dvd is good for rather unexperienced dancers and really unfit people, because it will teach you some new moves and is probably benificial if you're out of shape.
DO NOT BUY!!

This DVD is GARBAGE! A complete gimmick. Poorly instructed and the dance instructors are really annoying. The set looks horrendous. Everything about this DVD is cheesy. It's a complete and utter waste of money. DO NOT BUY!!!

I cannot see how this can be called a workout video - it is done in high heels - a dance video maybe - the presenters love themselves and dance more like pole dancers than latin dancers - I dance all the latin dances and ballroom ones and expected a workout I found this heartily disappointing - my daughter also bought this and she too was disappointed with the whole thing - I loved the film - but this is not worthy of being called a workout - NOT ENOUGH MUSIC AND TOO MUCH CHAT AND HAIR STROKING!!
Difficult to follow
Review date: 2008-02-16 Rating: 4 out of 10
I thought that I would enjoy this dvd, and I did at the beginning. The 1st part of the dvd which shows some of the moves is easy enough, but from then on it gets more complicated. The male dancer is easier to follow but he only does one dance. The female on the other hand wiggles all over the place and makes the steps look more complicated than they are. She doesn't show the steps slowly and then just takes off at a fast pace expecting you to keep up. I spent a lot of time in front of the telly standing still trying to figure out what she was doing, not a good workout at all.
