A 38-minute Samba-inspired cardio dance workout, taught by Brazilian dancer and instructor Vanessa Isaac.

Beginning to intermediate exercisers. The steps are pretty simple, so even those who don't normally fancy themselves to be dancers should be able to learn them. You just need a sense of rhythm and the ability to let go and have fun.

Do you enjoy dancing, but do you find that most of the cardio dance DVDs out there are too complicated? This workout from Vanessa Isaac lasts a little over half an hour, offers just six simple steps in an add-on style so you get lots of repetition to learn the moves, and it's stylish without being complicated. Isaac is an encouraging instructor with a charming Brazilian accent that never gets in the way of her cueing. This workout is paced a little faster than her Brazilian Rhythm Celebration, but the choreography is still easy enough for the majority of beginners. If you do have a problem with the steps, there's a separate instructional segment so you can go over them more slowly. Once you've learned the steps — and there's a good chance you will have them all down in one or two passes of this workout — you'll be able to let go and add your own flair. The background music is hypnotic, rhythmic percussion that invites you to groove. This is a fun cardio DVD for beginners, or for intermediates who are looking for a light workout between heavier days.
