Ooooo thanks for the review of this, Carolyn!  's workouts, like 's do seem to resemble one another quite closely, but still... I adore and never get bored with him.Tell me more about his speech on copying?  Like other instructors putting out ck workouts or as in people ripping his dvd's?

He really does get the credit for popularizing cardio kickboxing and making it fun and accessible to everyone!   Not sure that we would have Turbo Kick if it weren't for Tae Bo!

the other day, i did one of billy's newest taebo workouts...

called 'this is taebo'.

i was sweating early on in this workout! it was a good one,

full of all of his favourite moves (which makes me wonder what

actually is in billy's video entitled 'billys favourite

moves'...probably all of the same stuff! LOL)

strangely, there were absolutely no stretches done in this

workout, so its a good thing i have my own stretch routines that

i add on. no workout video ever has enough stretching for me,

but still, i was expecting billy to do a few.

instead of stretching at the end, billy has you hold horse stance

while he gives a big talk about other people copying taebo...

which he really doesnt mind because that means that taebo works.

but he still had to put out a new workout to prove that he is

the cardio kickbox king :)

hi pink!

he was referring to other instructors being 'copycats' by doing

their own taebo-like workouts. billy believes that he invented

cardio kickboxing, which is probably true. he says that he

invented taebo in 1976 (teaching it in gyms) while his first

video for home use was released in 1998. i cant list any

titles off of the top of my head, but i have certainly done other

kickboxing workouts that do use some of billy's favourite moves.

by the way,.ive ripped half of my taebo vhs collection to my

computer. it is so much fun to do those old workouts again!

(and to see my old boyfriend, Najib Khoury, and our EV buddy

paul's girlfriend Debbie Bebe...LOLOL)
