I wonder how many people know that Cathe got her start in a CIA. She was so young! I don't remember the name of it.

I think I had the tin foil workout - and lots of other CIAs. I remember going to the CIA College of Aerobic Knowledge in Philadelphia every January where Greg Twombley would have new CIA instructors teach classes before the new videos were released.

I remember reading Cathe was a backgrounder in one, then co-led a hi-lo segment with Greg in 1006.

Found it! (A little snippet of CIA 1006. Notice the non-mirror cueing )

I never had the Becky Spacesuit one but this thread gave me a memory of when I was a newbie and to my newbie eyes it *seemed* like the only videos Collage Video catalog carried were CIA hee hee I know that wasn't technically true but it felt true back then ....

I have that and I enjoyed it, and I don't usually like kickboxing. I remember emailing her and praising the workout, and she wrote back a nice thank you note.

I never did acquire Becky's Kicked Up Step, but I loved/love the CIA workouts. I have trouble choosing one favorite, but Greg Twombly, Donna Read, Franny Benedetto, Shannon & Alison, Christi Taylor, & Patrick Goudeau are tops in my book.

Thanks for the clip with Cathe leading the hi/lo workout. It looks like something I would really enjoy--both back in the day & now. I remember when I first started buying Cathe's step videos (my first was Mega Step Blast.) I was poor back then, so I had to pick & choose carefully & never did get Cathe's earlier step workouts. Years later, I acquired Cardio Step Challenge--what a snooze fest! It was just basics with different arm patterns. Comparing that to the CIA clip makes me wonder why Cathe didn't release hi/lo workouts on vhs. I know at one time I heard that she didn't like to do hi/lo workouts on vhs, because her hi/lo took up so much room. I'm guessing that & the popularity of step might have been reasons.

Anyway, long live CIA workout videos!

I had the spacesuit one, but her cueing was bad so I got rid of it.

The only CIA I still own is 2102 PowerBar Training with Shannon and Alison (aka "The Sinister Sisters"). I don't like it, but DH does. So I have to keep it. LOL!

Rhonda,

I have it!! I used to love it too but I haven't done it in ages. You can have it. Just PM your address and I'll mail it to you.

This series must have been the kickbox and kickbox/step series. While I was searching, I came across Gay's kickbox step and Sherri Jackquelyn's kickbox workout from the same series. Those were great too. I really need to get my VCR hooked up again since I have great workout videos.

Franny Bennedetto was probably my favorite exercise instructor of all time.

I forgot to mention that I have too many favorites and Franny is one of them. I also discovered Christi Taylor, Patrick and the other G-Force, and so many others through CIA.
