Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Core Rhythms Dance Exercise Program Starter Package 3-dvd Set
Customer Review: okay, but not great
Summary: 3 Stars
This DVD is okay---however, the coordination required is a little above my level. From reading the description, I thought I could do it--so I am a little disappointed. Probably, I just am a "Dancing With the Stars" wannabe!Customer Review: Lacks Instructions
Summary: 2 Stars
Not for beginners. Dance instructors do not explain moves or demonstrate well. Thankful that I did not pay full price. I ended up ordering DanceXfitness and found that to be much more fun and easier to do.Customer Review: Very disappointing
Summary: 1 Stars
No customer service link,"help" or FAQa available on their website.
Nothing to read others' comments and frustrations or suggestions. Just loud bawdy ads bleating success.
For one, there is a bothersome little icon right in the middle of the screen that will NOT go off - it is a movie projector, with numbers that do not seem to correlate to anything.
For another, the FIRST DVD - the Intro one, was good - it was slow and repetitive - I felt very hopeful, and was fun - good moves.
But the "full workout" was a MESS. I thought at first that I had skipped an entire DVD - it is soo different from the first one. I am definitely calling for my money back - I read on internet sites that you can slow it down, but there is NO HINT of how to do that (if you can) - and it is very fast and jerky - not at all graceful. VERY, VERY fast. It is difficult to know when a "new" move is introduced (it is hard to hear), to access "help" menu - and then I am flicking back and forth, and sometimes there IS no new move - it just looks like it (and you must go back to the last new move - skipping back and repeating). It is a mess.
It would be GREAT if you could watch the "help" sessions in succession, with more repetitions, to really learn it before it is put together. The setting is much nicer with the "help" lessons - not so loud and obnoxious as the staged (very fast) version, with the huge midriff on the screen behind - very distracting and tacky.
Very disappointing.
Customer Review: I guess I'll keep trying, BUT ...
Summary: 1 Stars
The other reviewers are correct. There is virtually NO instruction whatsoever included on this DVD. I'm sure it's a great workout if you're already an experienced professional dancer, but otherwise, prepared to feel completely baffled most of the time.
Also, notice when you watch the infomercials for this product, you'll see raves from people of every age, body type and level of fitness (or lack thereof). Well, of course, it's a commercial, so that's what you'd expect. But also -- these people took a live version of the class, presumably with the instructors in the room with them to offer guidance, or at least answer questions. (And presumably those people didn't have to pay for the class, either, which probably helped too.)
Finally, my copy of the DVD has an extremely irritating blue line with a little camera icon on it (I believe it's the angle selection icon) that appears ALL THE TIME, right across my TV screen and you cannot turn it off no matter what you do. It's not only totally distracting, in my case it even gave me a little bit of a headache after a while.
Overall, I wasn't exactly blown away.
Customer Review: Watch out
Summary: 1 Stars
Watch out. I ordered it once from the official site. They will try to trick you into buying something else. They will guide you to put all credit card information and recommend you a one-click offer at last. There is no turning back. I emailed them when I mistakenly click to accept the offer. They reply and said they had already processed and wouldn't accept a return on that bottle of diet pills. They said it was on sale but I checked on that. They charge double the market price. You should be careful. It will be Dytrexil Hoodia Gordonii. They offerred it at 29.90. Chech this out. http://www.dytrexil.com/Order.htm
