Editorial Review:

For the first few minutes of The Hotpants Workout you might think you've tuned into Top of the Pops, as female dancers in skimpy, shimmery--yep you guessed it--hotpants dance around. Choreographer to the stars Dan Karaty maintains that Kylie and Britney have fantastic bodies thanks to dance. But the opening case study of a real dancer who had to get her figure back after a period of inactivity due to illness is unnecessary. It's only once the charming Karaty goes into the workout that there is no doubt he knows how to put across his point: dance is indeed a fun way to get a good body.

The session is divided into six sections which target legs, thighs, burning fat, waist, abs and glutes. "Bounce" features a sexy bounce move, "Slide" is based on a sexy slide from leg to leg, "Rush" is a fast fun section, and by the time you reach the slower "Groove" section you might kid yourself that you're just steps away from looking like Karaty's confident back-up dancers. "Two Step" is the hardest of the six sections in terms of coordination, but it's not impossible. The only disappointing section is the final cooldown. It's not as fun as the rest, and the addition of abs and glutes might complete the fitness aspect but doesn't gel with the rest of the up-beat funky workout. Not for serious fitness fanatics but undeniably fun--and it'll do wonders for your dance-floor cred. --Lorna V

• hoping to wear hotpants!!
  This is a good beginners workout once you learn the moves. It warms you up and then gives a good workout, and the abs exercises are quite good. I would say watch the tape through once or twice so you can get the hang of the moves before going for it.
  It will keep your mind engaged as you have to concentrate to get the moves right, so it is an excellent dvd to get you motivated to exercise more as you wont get bored.
  There isnt that much cardio work, so you wont quite get the hotpants look, but... more info

• Sarahs hotpants workout review
  I didn't know what to expect when I ordered this dvd. I chose it based on the dozens of positive reviews it has recieved on here. I was not dissapointed. The workout is fun because you get to have a go at some dance moves like the kind you see in pop videos. I consider myself to have low-average amounts of co-ordination and I did find 50% of the moves quite hard to follow but after a few goes of the whole routine you do get the hang of it. I don't think it matters if you're not doing the moves perfectly, as... more info

• The ultimate beach body workout DVD
  This film is divided into six mini routines:
  Bounce (a bootylicious warm up for butts and thighs set to a hip hop beat)
  Slide (cool side steps that focus on your inner and outer thighs)
