I don't know if it was just my "trial class" or because it was Zumba for beginners or what, but my class had a lot of down time. We'd do a song for about 5 minutes, and then the instructor would turn...

I am just getting back to exercise after COVID (so far, so good), and I did the Fusion Flow workout on the Flow and Glow DVD today. It is not too difficult and better for an easier day, but it's...

I'm not trying to confuse things or muddy the waters, but I don't think Cathe is at her best in her yoga workouts. There is nothing wrong with them, and they are more "athletic" than some yoga...

I agree with "light cardio". Sometimes I do one of these after some other cardio like a walk or a swim because it provides some stretching and toning too. They are also good if you are coming back...

I have all of the DVDs except the stretch one. The only I've done yet is the Circuit one, and I did the shorter 38 minute workout on it. I liked it. It's an indoor setting but not a boring studio,...
