For those of you who don't do "walking" workouts, what do you use to fill that niche?
Inspired by this thread, I was wondering what you nonwalking-video users use for your "walking" substitute, a low impact, nonplyo workout that involves your upper and lower body, keeps your (bare)feet on the ground, but yet does a body good? I am not really talking about floorwork, no pilates, no yoga, just feet-on-the-ground and moving workouts.
This morning doing a Misty Tripoli, it "came" to me that Misty is Leslie with a bandana, some dreads, and live (better) music. Chris Freytag's Prevention workouts for the most part aren't labeled "walking," but if Leslie were doing them, no one would look askance. Care to share?

Gin's Salsa Walk, IIRC, is a hot commodity. People keep trying to get here to re-release it and my understanding is the answer is NO.
But I could be confusing it with another of hers. I just don't click with Ellen, and I want to LURVE her. I need to buy one of her workouts and just see. I used to "do" her on Exercise TV, or was it FITTV. Anyway, is was Slorobics or something and my attention wandered and next thing you know I was standing there looking out the window and wondering what to have for lunch. But from what I see of clips, her later stuff is not quite like that.

Walk It Out Also, most dance video games other than DDR are low-impact and use the whole body.
Someone once mentioned Denise Druce DVDs, often sold in discount multi-packs, are good low-impact aerobic workouts.
