XKO or DAWEI kickboxing

Hi all,


has any one got, or done any of these videos and what are they like?
I will be getting xko kickboxing because of the great reviews also I saw a small clip of it and it looks really good, but I just wondered if anybody has done either of these in their entirety.

I heard that the dawei video is hardcore kickboxing with minimal instruction.

I bought XKO and I really like it, perfect length, good form pointers, etc. However, I have never done kickboxing before. I wanted something challenging but not out of my league. Be sure to look at the reviews on the videofitness site. The DAWEI workout seems for really advanced kickboxers. Check out my previous post currently on page 4 of Open Discussion. If you order XKO, be sure to call to order it and mention that you have a friend that got it on sale for $19.99 (includes the bonus video too).
 
I feel I should weigh in as I have both of these videos and I became certified as a group ex instructor and one of the classes I sub for is advanced cardio kickboxing.

I think that XKO is a great tape for all levels. They also have a nice 2nd tape for drills to help you increase your basic skills. The choreography is good and the filming itself is pretty high quality.

I bought Dawei after XKO, partially because I wanted an advanced KICKBOXING (as opposed to advanced aerobic) tape. I found that his tape has provided me with some great ideas for combos. I have used (with significant modification) parts of his routines for my own class. However, I refuse to do the tape at home myself as a workout. For one, some of his moves look pretty darn dangerous (since I am a certified for CARDIO kickboxing, and do not have formal martial arts training). Secondly, he's offbeat which drives me nuts.

Just my $0.02. Hope this helps.
