Summary: Great for 1st Timers
Comment: I'm quite overweight and wanted to get myself fit. I was worried that a workout DVD might be too much for me to keep up with but Helen's is great.
I managed to do it from start to finish first time round. It does get your heart going and makes you out of breath.
However, I doubt this would be very good for anyone used to the more difficult DVDs, I can't do those yet but i'm sure after a while of doing this I'll be able to work my way up.
If you've never bought an exercise DVD before, I would definitely reccomend this one!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Enjoyable but not recommended for first-timers
Comment: This is a fun DVD, suitable for beginners/intermediate exercisers. Not fantastically strenuous (well, I'm fairly unfit and pregnant, and I could keep up!) The only thing that I dislike about it is that there are no stretches at the end, so you have to remember to do them yourself in the shower and that's why I wouldn't recommend it to people who have never done an exercise class before. (I didn't try out the toning section because of the pregnancy, so can't comment on how safe/well-explained this is.)

Summary: Fantastic!!
Comment: To be perfectly honest i bought this because it was the cheapest dance workout i could find! i now however love this dvd! I had ALOT of weight to lose and had never exercised in my life and this was a fantastic introduction into the world of fitness, easy to follow and i loved the fact that Helen messes up and finds the bum toning so hard she stops in the middle! made her seem human.
Admittingly after doing it on a regular basis for a month or so it was no longer a challenge and i was looking round for something else, but i would recommend this to anyone who wants a fun introduction into the world of exercise. I have lost 70 pound in total and now love exercise! i think i may of gave up on exercise if i'd of bought one of the high impact dvds with superfit robotic presenters.
So in conclusion an excellent starter dvd for people who need to learn to love exercising!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Only for the unfit out there!
Comment: I bought this DVD having read the reviews on Amazon, and being somewhat of an "old-hand" at exercise DVD's, I expected a high impact, fun workout. I found this very disappointing. It's very obvious that Helen has been taught the routines by a proper instructor, as she clearly has no idea what she's doing!! I also found it hilarious that the two backing dancers were far, far, far better at the moves than she was, when she's supposed to be the dance teacher! I didn't even nearly break a sweat and thought that it was very low impact and geared towards those who have never worked out in their lives.
This DVD would only be suitable for someone who a) has no coordination whatsoever and b) hasn't done any exercise for years and needs something very low impact to start with. If you've done any exercise in the last year, this DVD will not break a sweat in any way at all. If you want a really good workout use the Charlie Brooks or Pump It Up original DVD.

Summary: Great fun
Comment: Helen's video is probably one of the most fun videos that you can do, ecspecially if your a girly girl, as she just has you giggling your way through it.
The toning section would have worked better if it had been longer, and if the moves had been more complicated, but overall, it is a very good video and I would definetly recommend it to a beginner as it would make you work up a sweat and would get you fitter to move onto harder work outs!
