Review – Step Up The Offical Dance Workout

13th January 2011 By Susan Mann Leave a Comment

Description: Calling all music video and film fanatics who need to ‘step-up’ their fitness regime… get ready to dance your way to an awesome body with STEP UP THE OFFICIAL DANCE WORKOUT inspired by the hugely popular STEP UP movies released by Universal Pictures (UK).
Box office smash hit, STEP UP, has sold over TWO MILLION DVD copies to-date and has an army of street dance devotees in every corner of the world.
STEP UP THE DANCE OUT is the first fitness DVD from the perfectly toned STEPUP franchise and promises to shift those excess Xmas pounds to all the latest street sounds.
For those ‘B-Fab’ (born from a boombox) dancers who hate the gym but love to hit the dance floor, STEP UP THE DANCE OUT brings both to the comfort of people’s living rooms. Fans can have fun and dance themselves fit while learning the coolest routines filmed in awesome locations just like the movies.
BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT finalist, Tobias Mead, features in STEP UP THE DANCE OUT with his crew of the country’s hottest hip hop dancers whose dancing credentials include working with a host of A-list superstars. From American idols such as Rihanna, Kanye West, Madonna, Black Eyed Peas, Nelly Furtado and Mariah Carey to X Factor heroes Alexandra Burke, JLS, Leona Lewis, Olly Murs, Diana Vickers and Joe McElderry, STEP UP THE DANCE OUT showcases the latest moves from the movies and pop videos. With killer tracks from top artists including Timbaland featuring Nelly Furtado, T- Pain, Run DMC, Chingy and Ciara featuring Missy Elliot, there is a pace and dancing style to suit everybody. Each of the six main dance sections are broken down into easy-to-learn moves so that fans can pick up the skills and learn the swagger and skills of street dance step-by-step and shape up.
Kicking off the action with a ‘Walkthru’ section, the STEP UP DANCE OUT crew showcase the basic steps no street-styler can be without. Three short teaching sections follow, which take wannabe street dancers through the step sequence at half tempo. Moving up a gear the ‘Steps Combined’ section turns up the pace to full tempo, laying down some killer moves. Finally, at the end of each section ‘The Dance Out’ combines all the previous steps at full tempo so dancers can really show off their awesome new street moves.

Sections:
Studio Warm Up – A walk through of some basic steps to warm up those muscles.
Club Nu Flo – Crewmember, Smiles, walks through some of the smoothest moves from this cool street dance style Street Urban House – Crewmember,Taylor, lays down some killer moves and really tests dancers skills.
Audition Dance – Crewmember, Missy, shares her slick and sexy style and teaches some of the hottest moves from the coolest dance videos.
Nu Wave Hip Hop – Crewmember, S-Jay, showcases the freshest moves around.
Top Rocking After Dark – Crewmember, Matt, pushes street dance skills to the limit Ultimate Club Showcase – Link all the moves together with a couple of new steps thrown in Throw Down Chill – Warm down and stretch out aching muscles.

Bonus feature Includes an exclusive freestyle routine and battle from Britain’s Got Talent Finalist Tobias Mead Behind-the-scenes with the crew.
Review: The music and dance moves on this dvd is fantastic. The exercise regime is tough but fun. A little bit more advanced than I’d like but it’s a challenge.
I love the Step up films, so this is an added bonus. I even have the boys dancing around the living room with me. I really should record this for embarrassing them later in life shouldn’t I?
The instructions are quite fast paced but if you keep at it I’m sure you will get a couple of the steps. This isn’t an every day exercise video for me, this would be a fun once a week type one. Maybe when I was a dancer prior to having kids, I may have been a bit better at keeping up, but for now, I’m enjoying learning a few moves and the music.
I’m never going to look like the girls in the videos or get the hang of the dance routines but I can have some fun, and get some exercise then there is nothing to lose here other than a few inches.
I would recommend this to those who are looking for a tough dance work out or to have some fun exercising to some great music.
It’s the best-selling fitness DVD this year, outselling all the celeb DVDs!
STEP UP THE DANCE OUT is available from 27th December 2010 from all good retailers.
