DVD Reviews of Dance - Core Cross Train
DVD Review: Great body awareness, fun workout, but dizzy camerawork for experienced dvd dancers only
Summary: 4 Stars
I love Patricia's body awareness & patience on her first two dance workouts. Most complaints was that she over taught when given 60 min to do a routine & 30 min faster instruction was fine. Well, some producer took that too far to heart.
Here, Patricia still has great body awareness, and does remind you proper alignment when she can & that was one of the only reasons I could follow. While the production is professional, the camera is zoomed into Patricia's face/shoulders too much or keeps slowly circling around her or different angles on to the three backup female dancers or the one male dancer. I kept curing because as I'm trying to learn, it never shows the feet at first, when it does, it's only for a few seconds then goes for another "artistic" shot. The backup dancers who though never speak, seem like they are having fun & enjoying the moves which helps.
As other reviewers said, she also seems rushed. Patricia seemed to realize this & tried to incorporate learning the moves & how to move the body nice & slow so it's easy to learn into the warm-up section which is brilliant, but she still ran out of time. The rest of the sections is a breezed through, very short routines, though she still teaches well here considering how fast she has to teach, good choice in cues, one of the better dance instructors, but the camera & time works against her.
Bonus Section:
has an alternate music track that is the same music but turned up louder so it almost completely drowns out Patricia for those who get tired of the instruction. Another thing some reviewers had complained on her first two dance workouts.
Jazz:
9 min warm-up, 12 min routine. I LOVED the warm-up, I felt very relaxed, it does tone, stretch you out & few cardio seconds here & there, but the routine was a bit fast & I didn't enjoy the moves.
Latin:
14 min warm-up, 8 min routine. She incorporates pelvic muscles a lot which help any "pouch", triple steps, samba steps, flamanco arms, teaches undulation, little shimmy, kick ball change, kick, pivot turn (doesn't instruct, only shows), and more. I liked this one more, but still the warm-up does a great job, the samba really gets the heart-rate up & she teaches it well.
Hip Hop:
11 min warm-up, 11 min routine. Here, in the warm-up, she really teaches some of the routine more since hip-hop has much less repetition & bit more complex to learn a new routine. She really does help you feel the bounce/chest thrusts as basic beat. I only had trouble w/the arms at one point, but again, by the end, I had no problem following.
I did get my heart rate up & felt toning in my core & arms a bit even after the first section, but I did all three w/distracted breaks in a row. I exercise only semi-regularly, so this is not challenging for those who are like me. This video is best for those who've taken a few dance classes, or have tried at least a few dance workout or instruction dvds & used to being taught basic moves. I don't blame Patricia at all, except for a couple rare moves she didn't have time to teach, I didn't have any problem following along the first time, except for the .... constantly moving camera.
