Crunch: Super-Charged Kickbox Party |
  Fun workout ruined by shouting instructor |
| My headline says it all. Jeanette is very talented and personable and her workouts are energetic and some are super challenging (Bikini Bootcamp). However, I keep buying or borrowing and *trying* to like them but unfortunately she YELLS all cues as if we were in a huge and crowded gym class. Um, no, you're in my living room and I'd prefer an indoor voice please. - posted by Claire on 8/9/2011 |

| More kickboxing, less dancing |
| This video is ok. I like the kickboxing workout part of it but too much dance moves interspersed in it. I would have preferred all kickboxing. The dance moves get me confused. Maybe I will like better when I get them down more. If I would have known how much dance was in it I do not think I would have purchased. - posted by cheryl on 6/30/2011 |

| Not bad |
| Really liked her as an instructor. Liked the kickboxing in this routine, worked a sweat. However, didn't really care for the dancy moves, not that I don't like dancy routines, but just not with kickboxing. Good for those who would like a fun/good routine for less intense days. I definitely want to check out her Bikini Bootcamp DVD! - posted by lxc283 on 5/19/2011 |

| Impressed!! |
| This is my first workout with Jeanette. I was truly impressed. The routine can be a little difficult to follow at first but once you get the hang of it, you will be fine. I have followed Billy Blanks/Taebo for years so it is refreshing to do something a little different. I will be trying all of her DVDs. - posted by Mildred on 2/25/2011 |

| Confusing Mixture Of Dance and Kickboxing. |
| Although I find it confusing to follow the mixture dance step and kickboxing, as well as the sequence of her choreography, I did sweat a lot. But not really a fun one. - posted by Ester on 10/30/2010 |

| One of My Absolute Favorite Crunch Workouts! |
| This workout is fun, unique (this is the first dancing/kickboxing combo I've ever seen) and very uplifting. Jeanette is energetic and clearly having fun with her routine, which is what an instructor should do. I thought the combinations where fun and flowed together really well. That's saying something for a girl who has two left feet! I definitely sweat buckets and felt it in my arms and glutes the next day. The so-called "whooping and hollering" that's standard in Crunch videos didn't bother me a bit and the crazy workout attire only added to the fun and funkiness. I recommend it for those who want to have fun and try something completely different without nit-picking. :) - posted by Lindsey on 8/19/2009 |

| Give it a pass |
| I agree with the other comments posted about the kickboxing and dance being a combo that just doesn't work. I found the workout couldn't keep my attention and I wasn't breaking much of a sweat unless I started intensifying some of the moves (i.e. doing jumping jacks whenever she put in a dance move ...) This may not be a bad workout for a beginner but I definitely would not recommend for intermediate ... - posted by AB44 on 12/27/2008 |

| Fun mix of dance and kickboxing |
| I had a great time sweating with this one. Jeanette is a lot of fun and I was able to follow the workout through the first time. I sweated, danced and kickboxed my way to a good cardio burn. Definitely a party in a box workout for me. - posted by Elaine on 10/8/2008 |

| 5 star all around |
| This is a kick box workout. Its not too severe, just right for an intermediate. Theres diversity of the moves, yet you can catch on after seeing it a little bit. There are also dance moves, again, diverse, yet not too complicated. The cueing is very, very good in this one. I have many other dvds to compare this too, the firm and prevention, so that is why I say I'm intermediate. The music is good. The clip on here is exactly the intensity of the whole workout. - posted by barbara on 9/3/2008 |

| Hey, I liked it! |
| Seems like I'm in the minority but I like this workout. The time goes fast because it is sectioned off well, and to me, the mixture of a few dance moves with kickboxing was new and different. She's a good instructor and the design of the workout, that is, the structure of it is good! Like doing 5-6 different combos for 6 or 10 minutes rather than doing one endlessly. I always wear a heart rate monitor and am in great shape. This workout burns 600-700 calories per hour when I do it, like some of Tae Bo workouts or step, so I do it in my rotation once a week now. - posted by Robin K on 8/1/2008 |
