Advantages: Fun workout, good music tracks, Rosemary is encouraging Disadvantages: Might take a while to get the steps
...workout ones I had!
Rosemary Conley's Shape Up and Salsacise does pretty much what it says on the tin. The DVD contains different workouts centred around the dance of the Salsa, a Spanish dance. There are also some tone-up section for you to do as well, but I will explain these further on in the review. I didn't know much about Rosemary before watching this DVD, but I did know that she is a weight-loss guru and knows her stuff, so I had quite high ... ...ease yourself into the workout. Rosemary leads the workout, with 4 ladies in the background also doing the moves with her. These 4 women have actually lost many stones between them on the Rosemary diet so they quite a good advert for her diet plans! The moves in this section are quite basic, to a nice latin-ey sounding track. This lasts for 20 minutes, including both a warm-up and a cool-down, and although it is the level 1 workout, I did feel like ...

Advantages: Fantastic Fun and Witty Routines Disadvantages: Having to watch her helpers as they fake smile through the pain!
...gentle introduction into Salsacise and Rosemary encourages watchers to feel the rhythm of the music and cha cha cha with their feet after almost every move. The catchy beat and quick steps make this first section thoroughly enjoyable. Rosemary also introduces you to her assistants who have lost an incredible amount of weight between them! I chose to follow Juilette who was doing the routines in a more advanced way. There is also a lady called Jaqui ... ...are not quite as fit. Rosemary does a sort of 'in the middle' attempt but I do not blame her as she talks almost all the time!
All the new moves that you learn are then developed into a harder over 30 min routine in level 2. The best steps are the Side Salsa, Criss Cross and Samba! It certaininly gets your heart rate going so make sure you have some water handy! Being a big fan of dancing I loved this sections as each step runs straight into another ...

Advantages: It is easy to follow and doesn't feel like a normal workout Disadvantages: Only 2 levels so once up to full fitness on level 2 nowhere else to go
...Jeans Diet book too. Rosemary explains the moves clearly.
I don't like exercising usually and this has given me a boost each morning I have done this and because it is a dance routine it doesn't feel a chore. I lost just under 6 inches in one week doing this dvd along with the GI jeans diet and lost 4 lb so it worked for me. If you like salsa music then this would be for you. Great because you can work as hard as you can or little as you want dependent ... ...a toning band (available from Rosemary Conley website around) or you can use filled water bottles in each hand. I don't know if you can obtain the toning bands from local sports shops they maybe cheaper.
I suppose if you are already very active and fit you would need to work harder at the routines. Not being very fit I cannot comment on how the very active person would get on with the dvd ie. for a challenge.
I personally are thoroughly enjoying ...
