Red Hot Salsa is a fun, easy and exciting way to learn how to Salsa while getting an incredible workout. Join Lisa and her dancers and move to the sexy Latin beat of Salsa classics with live percussion. With this dynamic video, you will learn the basics without feeling intimidated. First you will warm up and stretch your body from head to toe. Then, you will learn each step by repetition, continually adding new steps until you have learned a full dance combination. Lisa’s cuing will make it simple for you to stay in step at all times. By repeating the full combination, you will have a chance to incorporate your own style and expression. Finally, you will cool down and stretch to keep you feeling great all day long. And just wait ‘till they see you on the dance floor!

Good basic workout for beginning salseros
This is a fun video for those who know the basics of salsa and would like to work out using some basic turns and improvisations from the dance. I agree with other reviewers that people without any salsa experience will find this video difficult. It is not meant to teach you salsa, and it will probably be a bit challenging unless you have salsa experience or pick up footwork quickly (even then, the fact that she is facing you makes it difficult). However, for salsa enthusiasts looking for something different and enjoyable, this video is great. Beginning salsa students may also enjoy practicing their turns and some improvisation and body isolations. More advanced salseros, however, may become bored with the monotony and not get as great a workout after the first few times. I wouldn't have minded seeing the entire routine done again at the end to a different song with a slightly faster rhythm for an extra challenge to those who want it. Overall, the video is great for a select audience; I recommend this video to my female beginning salsa students.

Not Salsa - Lisa teaches Mambo
Do not buy this or any of Lisa' videos if you are looking for Salsa. This is a slick marketing product to sell an exercise video in which she is not dancing Salsa but rather dancing Mambo....and very poorly at that. If you are looking to exercise to Salsa you will be confused.....If you are looking to learn Salsa you will not learn it.

Not very good
This video was very fast paced and hard to pick up on. You will only do well if you already have experience.

not teaching
This video doesn't teach you how to salsa. It is very fast passed. I think if you had some salsa background you'd be fine. But for beginners..no. I really wanted something that taught the steps and then put them together. This just does the steps and you need to catch on. I will say it works up a good sweat.

Fun Latin Workout - review from March 2005
I had fun with this workout since it never slows down for teaching, it keeps your heart rate up. She does do some of the same moves over & over, but it's still fun. I almost didn't know there was a instructional at the end of the video or in the scenes part of the DVD which helped a lot. She breaks things down well, but there were some moves she doesn't teach at all. Considering I don't learn very fast, I still enjoy this DVD unlike Crunch: Dance Party or Crunch: Hip Hop & Kathy Smith's Latin Dancing is horrible since only 2 people out of 15 can dance & they're all in the back hidden.
There could be more teaching & breakdown as she dances, but if you're looking for non-stop latin dancing & you don't have left feet, this is a good choice.

There's a trailer for this, her other dvds& all the other ones I mentioned at collagevideo com
