Body Groove Delicious Dance DVD Collection

I was a dancer from the age of 3 until 28 when I blew out my knee. All kinds of dancing, was in a ballet company, and owned my own dance studio. About 6 or 7 years ago I joined the Y and did 6-8 classes a week. Zumba, Piloxing, Barre Blast, etc. I did that for about 4 years before cancer struck. Three times in a year. Over the last 3 years I've had 6 surgeries and chemo. I was done with my 6th when Covid entered our lives. When I could finally exercise again I had to stick to my old "The Gazelle". Boring and I dreaded it. Since I couldn't go back to the Y yet because of the pandemic I bought this DVD thinking it looked like something I might enjoy. Well, I've only had it for 3 days and I can tell you I love it! I don't miss Zumba and the other classes, and it does so much for my mental health. Here's what I love, and maybe it's just the old choreographer in me being set free again. These are routines of a sort but you get to be yourself, let your own style come out, move the way you want to move, and it's lots of fun. You feel energized and happy. You'll have a smile on your face and feel great when you're done. Don't get me wrong, this is a workout, but it's your own and it makes you feel good. So unlike all those years of moving exactly like everyone in the class. Like clones. I was so stressed before I tried it the first time and when I was done I felt physically fantastic and emotionally at peace. I moved my way to a little bit of happy in this grim world and I have to be honest and say I felt like I had an entire body workout, every part of it, and it's not repetitive like the boring Gazelle. Each time you do it, it's different, because you choose how you move and what you want to do with the routine. She had a great idea when she came up with the Body Groove idea. Nothing repetitive or boring. It's not redundant routines you do repeatedly and everyone looks the same. The movements are flowing and shouldn't cause injuries. I'm having difficulty explaining this because it's so different from all the other workouts or classes at the Y or my many many years of ballet, tap, jazz, modern dance. I was in the theatre from the age of 8 and loved it. Danced in shows in my adult years. This feels better than all of it. She gives you the basic steps and you just go with it. Move like your body tells you. Again, this is a workout but the idea that each time I do the DVD it will be different because I made it so if refreshing. Brilliant idea for being healthy, mind and body. Worth every penny. I feel like I move my entire body instead of focused parts so I think it's a way better workout than the structured classes.

Yassss MISTY excellent instructions on how to do the moves. She is inspiring and Fun! I absolutely love these workouts. They are completely doable but also I worked up a sweat in a good way. I am 54 and love to dance. These moves are moves I know with a little extra I was in an accident and my heart weakened and went arrhythmic as a result of chronic pain etc.. No need to get into it It was bad.. Dancing got me back and gardening.. But dancing came first... This workout helps me keep the rhythm and adding some core strength moves safely. Lol I am not a working out lover but I loved this! I am a total fan of Misty's vibe.. Maybe because I am from NY I so relate to her way of speaking and delivering the instructions in a really funky fun but also gentle and encouraging way. I so liked her delivery that it made me keep going. Unlike many other gurus that are sometimes hard to follow or are so hardcore they make me stop and watch instead of doing.. These workouts have me doing it! 🤩

I bought this on a whim , hoping it would be a fun way to get some extra steps in. I love it. To me, the best part is that you can make the class as hard or as easy as you want to. It's free flowing so you move how you like. It's not for everyone, but I enjoy it.

I hate exercise. For me, it’s the equivalent of using an especially profane four letter word. I LOVE this program! In my twenties and thirties, I was on active duty in the USMC. I’ve done my share of running, high impact aerobics, etc. I’ve done Jane Fonda, Richard Simmons, etc. I always felt like a clod. I’ve never had a dancers body or a runners body, I’m not especially coordinated and I hated having to remember the steps. This program lets you relax and enjoy yourself- but don’t be deluded! It got my heartbeat up and I broke a sweat doing this- but I didn’t feel pressured. You’re constantly moving, Misty encourages you to breathe, and you go your own pace. Personally, I found it easy to follow the rhythm of the music. I’m so glad I bought this- it is a fun workout. It is a feel good workout. I recommend it for anyone who doesn’t like doing the “e” word!

THIS IS GLORIOUS... here is my review of her other DVD, and I feel EXACTLY the same way about this one.... oh my gosh, I have been searching for a work out program that I dont DESPISE for a decade. I'm 33, and just now really trying to take control of my movement and health. I've done Jilian Michaels, and Planet Fitness memberships, kettlebells, fitness blender.... you name it, I've tried it and DREADED it every single day. THIS IS DIFFERENT. This is JOY, and HAPPY, and FUN and SWEAT and ENERGY. It's AMAZING. I can't say enough. I literally smile through my workout. Not only that, but my fitbit usually showed about 150-180 calories burned with my typical HIIT or Jilian vids.... this is 350-400 calories!!! All burned joyously. I can not WAIT to dance every day... this is a game changer.... and I ADORE the instructor. I don't know her name off hand, but I want to be her friend. YOU WILL NOT REGRET THIS PURCHASE<3

The video and workout are great, BUT since it’s a dvd, it gets repetitive and boring. The only way to stream it is through her website. It’s not available on iTunes or prime. They really need to figure out what century we’re in!

I would say most exercise videos are boring. When I was much younger: I worked out to Cindy Crawford’s, shape your body VHS, Tamilee, buns of steel VHS, and Lucky Vanous, the ultimate fat-burning system VHS. As you can see these are all in VHS and I needed a new dvd workout video. I have tried a few new dvd's and didn’t like or keep up with the new ones. Until I came across this Body groove dvd. What I have liked so far: it's easy to follow, it does not hurt my back, lots of fun, and the instructor is amazing. It’s worth the buy.

It is the best workout I’ve ever done. It’s not your normal routine workout. It’s just dancing your own way. So fun and my kids love it!!! I feel so good when I do this. And I look forward to doing it. Normally when I work out I want to quick half way through. Not this one, because I don’t feel like I’m failing when I can’t do it just like them. It’s my own pace and how my body moves. Seriously this is the best thing I ever worked out to. I even ordered one for my sister.

Super tolle einfache Bewegungen. Macht Spaß mit zu tanzen Hebt die Laune in Sekunden 👍😊

Love this exercise DVD. It is broken up in 5 or 6 minute segments, so it works for people just starting on an exercise program. Exercises are fun and not overly strenuous.

Absolutely pleasure to dance with her. I exercise all parts of my body by dancing, which I like very much. Each section is different and gives me a lot of joy which has a huge impact on my well-being. There is no place for errors , you are moving your body in your own unique . LOVE IT!

Super pour se remettre au sport! Motivant, et accessible.... mais on transpire quand même !

Love this DVD, I find exercise so boring but dancing that’s fun. Very well done.
