I love Christi Taylor's "Still Steppin' Just For Fun". Not complex; it really is just for fun.

I also love her Step Heaven. This one is more advanced. In fact, mastering Stage Two was one of the greatest accomplishments of my life!

You can't fo wrong with Christi. Her music is so great and her workouts are so much fun!

I actually love the step workouts on The Gymbox streaming service. There are 30 minute step workouts that have more basic choreography and 60 minutes with advanced choreo. It's $10/month, but there are so many different workouts in there that it is worth it to me.

I tend to like complex choreography so my suggestions reflect that.

Probably my most done step workouts are Cathe Party Rockin Step 2 (which has shorter premixes), Cathe Step moves (which is about 40 minutes, I think), Cathe bodymax II where I often do the step portion only which is about 30 minutes, Cathe Cardio and Weights step segment is fun and 30 minutes and Cathe Low Impact Circuit step section. Also, Stepblast if fun (and very challenging aerobically!). I like some of Kari's older Great Move steps that are on VHS only and OOP. They are easier in terms of intensity but she has her own choreography style. I never go into Amy Bento much, but tried a couple times.

Also a lot of the Christi Taylor workouts are on youtube as well

I personally like the older Cathe Step workouts Step Blast, Step Jump & Pump, and Body Max 2. I also enjoy Low Impact Step.

My favorites, for the fun factor...

Cathe's Rhythmic Step

Cathe's Party Rockin' Step #2 (#1 is the dancey version, but I'm not great at dancey step)

Cathe's Step Blast

Cathe's IMax 2

Most of Cathe's have premixes so can be made shorter. I like the music in these, but music is not a deal breaker for me. I don't find them overly complex, but I've been doing Cathe for years so I'm used to her moves.

My favorite step + cardio is Cathe's Low Impact Circuit or Cardio & Weights

For nostalgic and when I'm the mood for plain old basic old school step, I like Cathe's Cardio Hits dvd or her Classics Volume 1. I think these are easier to learn, but I never found Cathe's choreography incredibly difficult once you get the hang of her moves with the exception of Party Rockin Step #1 maybe which is more dancey. Her choreography is more athletic.

My favorite step workouts are from Christi Taylor. I really love Totally Cool Step. It's around 50 minutes, moderate intensity and moderately complicated choreography. I really love the music in it. I also love Cathe Step workouts.
