It was our goal with the Motion DVD to create something for everyone. Each move in the video is rated at a skill level - 1 being easy, 10 being expert. Within the video, the moves range all the way from a 3 (not too difficult) all the way to an 8 (very difficult). That said, there's pretty much something for those on all ability levels.
Each move is explained with incredibly detailed instruction - on-screen text, multiple camera angles, vocal instruction, and additional tips by d+M. We wanted to make sure that each move was able to be learned and used.
Would I recommend Motion for a stone cold beginner? Not necessarily, as you'd want to first establish a basic comfort with card handling and basic moves. But if you're really ready to learn cardistry and flourishing, and you're willing to put in some practice time, go for it. With some time, dedication, and practice, nothing is out of your reach.
