Addicted to Sweat - ATS Dance Volume 1 with Nicole Winhoffer

Three high-energy dance routines choreographed and performed by Madonna's personal trainer. There's no verbal cuing; the idea is to just follow Nicole and "get lost in the movements." But it's doable since the patterns are simple eight-count sequences (and each segment is preceded by a step-by-step tutorial option).

The first section is the easiest; it combines basic step-touches with low jumping jacks and "criss-cross legs." The next part is mostly cha cha dance with lots of wide-ranging turns. The final segment is a challenging series of funked-up Electric Slide moves. Filmed on a gritty, industrial-style set.

Note: each section is played individually; there is no "play all" option. ©2012.

ATS Dance Volume 1 is the first level of three routines from Madonna’s cardio dances. Nicole breaks down each step in a tutorial, so you are able to practice and master the choreography before turning up the music and performing. You will learn signature dances, ‘Step Together,’ ‘Cha Cha’ and ‘Electric Slide.’ These are high-impact, intricate and high-endurance dances, but through Nicole’s teaching technique they are simple to learn and follow along. Nicole will train and guide you as she does with Madonna, to achieve results and learn about the body. As an added bonus segment, Nicole combines all three routines together, so you can perform without stopping – just like Madonna. By the end of the workout, you will be wet and addicted to sweat.

“I want to inspire people to move. Through movement you will find your inner strength to look and feel your best.” – Nicole Winhoffer, Madonna’s trainer.
