Any thoughts on Beyond Barre Fit with Colleen Ketchum?

I searched and could only find threads about a slide board set on QVC that apparently never happened. Total Fitness has her DVDs on sale, and they are DVD-R but they look good! They remind me of Cardio Vusion, which is one of my favorites.

Has anyone tried these? Any thoughts?

I had them b/c of the sliding aspect, which turned out to be a disappointment to me. Also, there were things about her appearance (I'll leave it at that; rules) that I didn't want to look at. I traded them recently. Before that, they were offered for sale on VF Roost for a long time, no takers.

Cynthia, all the stuff I've bought from you I've liked! So this almost makes me want to get them.

I don't see any gliding/sliding in these though. Did you have different ones maybe?

No. Those are the only 2 ever released. There's a separate section of sliding, not incorporated into the workout.

Ohhh I didn't realize that. I see it in the breakdown now, only about 15 minutes worth. Did you try the rest of the workout?

No. I previewed one of the DVDs.

Pratima - I have these and love them. I tried them thru KineticFlix first and, even though I almost never buy DVD-R's, I bought these thru Mary because I liked them so much. I've done each of them a couple more times and continue to love them. I haven't done them recently, but they are on my list of things to do again.

P.S. I just noticed you only asked about Fit, but I was talking about both. Fit is probably my favorite of both.

Karen, what do you love about them? And have you tried Hilliard yet? I'm debating between the two, or might get both!

Pratima - I haven't received my order from Hilliard so I can't compare them yet. I really like Beyond Barre because I like her sequence of exercises and, although I really feel them, they are not crazy hard. I'm a little worried that the Hilliard ones will be too hard for me.

Karen, does Beyond have a good amount of cardio-ish moves? It looks like it from the previews.
