I placed an order for Andrea’s DVD when I was in St. Paul for the September RKC. Receiving it in the mail 2 days ago, I popped it into my computer for a mini sample workout before work and have to say that in one quick “Goddess” segment I was smoked and stoked! From the picture quality, angles at which each exercise can be viewed, as well as the concept and content packed into this user-friendly DVD, it triples as a work-along workout, a reference on proper form, as well as a workout structure guide. While I am an RKC and not a new kettlebeller, along with all other kb practictioners I’m sure, I am and should always be constantly working to refine my form. Andrea’s clarity (along w/that of Kristann’s and Nicole’s) in explaining and displaying each exercise is worth the price of the DVD alone. One of my trouble exercises is the simple yet complex clean. Just by viewing the “quick start review” feature of the DVD, I already feel like I have a better understanding of this exercise that plagues me and things are really starting to click! it is the subtleties in form after all that makes all the difference at the end of the day as we practice this skill called strength. One complaint that I often have with predominantly female-tailored exercise guides is that they often assume its audience is beginner level; “Goddess” is for all-users (men included) and I’d even veer to say that its workouts are quite advanced, although they can be paced to any fitness level, as the 3 ladies each show a different variation on each exercise. I could go on and on but I hope you’ll all be the judge and do yourselves a favor to grab a copy of your own. Great job Andrea and I look forward to working with you again!

I recieved the DVD a couple of days ago.If I could I would give this DVD a 20 instead of a 10.Most DVD's only give you a stripped down verzion of a workout. This marvelous DVD gives you not only 1 workout,like most DVD's.It gives you An infinite amount of them,and they include a warm-up portion and a cool-down routine that is out of this world.These workouts will work you out even if you use a light kettlebell.The instructions are clear cut,and concise for all to understand.Guys will love this DVD as well.

Andrea Du Cane provides some tough workouts on The Kettlebell Goddess DVD. This DVD is not for beginners, but it is a great way for someone familiar with basic kettlebell exercises to get a great challenging workout. Each of the goddess workouts are great no-frills, no-nonsense, kick-butt exercise routines. I really enjoy the relax into stretch segment at the end of each workout. By the way, this DVD is not just for women! My boyfriend loves it as much as I do (though he did complain about not being able to keep up with women wearing pink shirts).

I am so excited about this DVD! I have been training with KB's for three years now off and on, and I have to admit that my motivation has been running low in the past year, and this is just what i needed! Someone to push me, something simple, something sturctured. I have been waiting for a DVD like this for a looong time and now it is finally here! What I like best with it is how it is laid out. It is a complete foolproof way to get your butt kicked a different way each and every day! I love it. And the PDF that came with the DVD shows different ways to schedule your workout or combine different excercises and it gives me absolutely no excuse not to swing that bell! Andrea, great job!

WOW!! I purchased this DVD at the RKC in October and I am in LOVE!! I will recommend this DVD to EVERYONE!! This has to be the most kick-butt workout I’ve tried. My clients will love it! I love the structure of being able to design my own workout with the formulas provided, or just follow along with the workouts already created for us. Andrea – You are awesome! Thanks so much for this DVD! I feel like I’m back at the RKC. (well…almost!)

This DVD is brilliant! I love the way it is structured to either follow along with the goddess workouts or to create your own. The instruction is great and the workouts are awesome. I can never see myself getting sick of this DVD with all the variety!
I’m newly addicted to kettlebells; I have only been working out with them for a few months now and I think this DVD is excellent for beginners. I’d recommend it to both beginners and advanced kettlebellers alike. If you are looking for a serious workout DVD, this is definitely worth it! I love it! I can’t thank Andrea enough!!

Very informative. I like the flexibility of the workouts. I've been missing the stretching after working out with kettlebells and this got me back on track with that. Great for men or women. The only thing I would have added would be music. (Review as Submitted on: DragonDoor)

This is a great DVD. I have been getting nothing but positive feedback from my clients. I tried a few of them myself and trust me guys, this DVD is not just for the Goddess' but the Gods' can also get worked on these programs as well. The different combinations and ways Andrea shows you how to come up with your own personal routine makes this a must for anyone who wants to get in shape. (Review as Submitted on: DragonDoor)
