With the goal to get kids moving, fitness expert Denise Austin leads preteens in a 20-minute total body workout incorporating elements of dance, hip-hop, sports drills, and yoga. It begins with a six-minute warm up of stretches and lunges, followed by seven minutes of cardio-funk, kick-boxing, and traditional aerobics. The program ends with a strengthening segment of push-ups, abdominal exercises, and beginning yoga. Effervescent Austin provides adequate verbal coaching to a dozen kids who perform the moves.This moderately fast-paced program assumes its participants are fairly fit at the onset and in only a few cases offers reduced levels of participation for varying abilities. No equipment is necessary and minimal space is required in this energetic option for general youth fitness. Don't miss the DVD's bonus episode, "Family Fit," a 20-minute workout designed for families to do together. It follows the same format as the "Fit Kids" routine, with the addition of a few exercises that require partnering for resistance training. One segment employs a basketball (or similar sized ball) which is the only equipment necessary. "Quality fitness, doing it together," is Austin's peppy mantra, which results in a corny but clever way to get families off the couch. (Ages 8 and older) --Lynn Gibson

Seems like a good DVD for older (8-12 yr olds) kids...I was hoping it would be good for my 3 year old, but it's a little to fast paced.

- Fun for mommy & kiddos too!
I am a mom. I do this video WITH my kids- I cannot imagine my kids ever doing this by themselves and I think that anyone that would EXPECT their child to do an excercise video on their own, let alone be ENTERTAINED, is a little lazy or crazy. It's not about being entertained- it's about giving your kiddos a fun supplement to their normal physical activity- one that might focus on few specific muscles of the body.
The video is probably about 30 minutes- not TOO long and not TOO short ... Read More

My 9 year old daughter likes this exercise routine.I am a 40 year old mom and I enjoy doing the exercises with my daughter.Denise is very positive and tells kids to do their personal best.My daughter has never used exercised videos or taken dance lessons before this.These exercises were not too hard nor too easy for her.The variety of moves made it fun.There are two sessions on the DVD.Each session is about 20 minutes, which we like.When we have time we do both sessions.The exercises ...

Seems like a great DVD for kids, although I've been too lazy (and busy) to do it with them.
Rating: - Mom of 1
This product is okay, it is made up of two 20 minute sections.My four year old screams to watch it, but isn't motivated to stay with it too long.The Second half is a bit tougher for little ones to follow. The second section follows a whole family Mom, Dad, brother and sister ...It is more geard for beginner type adult then children. I love to do tae bo and found it rather boring.
The kids are entergetic in the video.All in All... maybe for older children 7-10?...
