Is Cardio Athletic Kickbox® like Tae Bo®?

Since 1994, the Cardio Athletic Kickbox workout format has been taught at Health Clubs and Corporate Fitness facilities in Northern California. TaeBo was first introduced to the public in the Fall of 1998 as a video and is taught in TaeBo studios. The Cardio Athletic Kickbox class format is now taught to group exercise instructors throughout the United States and Internationally. The Cardio Athletic Kickbox video smoothly incorporates athletics into the Kickboxing workout to create a new and unique workout experience. It is fun, energizing, and accommodates men and women at any fitness level from beginner to advanced. Low impact and lower intensity options are demonstrated throughout. Eversley and his team take you through a workout incorporating kicks, punches, elbows and knees, and combinations used in martial arts and boxing together with effective athletic drills. Eversley's motto is, "Lets play hard, but lets play safe®".

 Tae Bo® is a registered trademark of BG Star Productions.

Is the workout for beginners, intermediate, or advanced people?

Eversley believes that all fitness levels should be accommodated in a workout. This is one of the biggest benefits of Cardio Athletic Kickboxing over other home video workouts.

The first Cardio Athletic Kickbox I Video is more geared to beginner/intermediate, with options for higher intensity. The combinations are easy to follow and 2 people demonstrate low impact throughout the video. The Kickbox I video is also a very fun and entertaining workout.

The Cardio Athletic Kickbox II and the Instructor Series I videos are more intermediate/advanced workouts. All combos are done from a fighting stance for a more natural feel and flow. The combinations are more challenging, but they are broken down and cued to perfection. This makes the workout very easy to follow. Throughout each video, safety tips and correct form for various kicks and punches are given, along with options for low and moderate workout intensity to accommodate all fitness levels.
 

Does Eversley have a martial arts background and is he certified to teach health and fitness?

Eversley Forte personally developed the Cardio Athletic Kickbox workout and presents an energetic and motivating coaching approach to group exercise. He is the President of Behind the Scenes Fitness, trains group exercise instructors internationally, a consultant to group fitness program directors, and is the Executive Producer and Director of the Cardio Athletic Kickbox video series.

Which videos do you recommend for instructors?

Both the Kickbox II and Instructor Series I videos are great for instructors or home exercisers looking for a more challenging workout. Both are packed with combinations, athletic drills, and new ideas that can be incorporated into classes. In the Instructor Series I video, nothing is held back. There is a lot more movement, both in circles and laterally. Back kicks and other higher intensity moves are executed in the Instructor Series I video. Modifications on the movements for safety and lower impact are shown throughout the video, along with teaching tips.
 

I have been training in martial arts for several years, will this be a good workout for me?

I heard of people getting hurt doing cardio kickbox style classes. Is this a safe workout?

Is the music any good?

Yes!!! It is not the usual 'generic' video workout music. It is high energy instrumental dance music.
