Kathy Smith's Step Workout |
    Kathy Smith Step |
| This is one of my all time favorites. It's a straight forward workout, not too complicated and easy to follow. - posted by Lori on 2/17/2011 |

    Good one |
| Even tho this is an 'oldie' the moves are the same as when I was a gym member last year and took their step class. Your muscles don't care if the guy in the back has a mullet. And it's nice to have it in a DVD format to jump to different sections. I run and bike and do weights, and thought I'd get thru all 3 cardio sections easily, but I have to say at the 'advanced' level I had to stop. Just shows it's always good to shake up your fitness routine, and this one does that! - posted by Joyce on 2/17/2011 |

    Great Workout |
| I have done this video for years, and it is one of my "go to" workouts in my video library. None of the steps are particularly tricky, but the workout is still challenging. Love Kathy Smith! Always upbeat, encouraging and enthusiastic. Definitely give it a try. - posted by Marilyn on 2/17/2011 |

    I enjoyed this |
| I tried this for the first time today and liked it. I burned good calories (548 total) using an 8" step, it was easy to follow, flows at a nice pace, and I didn't have to think a lot, which was perfect today. :) Kathy's cuing is very good. This is a classic step workout I'm glad to have. - posted by Marla on 2/8/2011 |

    1992 - those were the days |
| Thongs. Not my favorite aerobic attire although I remember the fad too well. This is a very basic but very well queued workout. Kathy even breaks down how to do a repeater. It's very easy to add power to the moves and I like having the heart-rate check. I'm not in as good as shape as normal right now so this is just the right speed and length. 4 because there is no 3.5 If you are looking to get back into exercising, Kathy is a great instructor. No complicated choreography. - posted by Sara on 2/3/2011 |

    If you like Kathy, you'll like this |
| But if, like me, you find her kind of boring (sorry) this workout will quickly gather dust. The routine's choreography is very basic and low impact so this is a good option for users looking for these things. The generic mid-90's electronic music also needs to be overlooked. I gave it 3 stars because while I didn't particularly love this one, it's well made. - posted by Vanessa on 1/19/2011 |

    Classic Kathy Smith |
| Kathy Smith's Step Workout has been one of my favorites since it first came out. I had it on video and found the DVD on collagevideo.com. My video broke and boy did I miss this workout. I love the varied routines, starting with step, moving on to arms then situps! Awesome routine. - posted by Kristy on 12/9/2010 |

    Oldie but goodie! |
| I had an vhs old copy of this from years ago, but had not done it in years. So, I decided to get the DVD. It's a pretty easy to follow and a good pace. A good workout! - posted by Priscilla on 11/18/2010 |

    An oldie but a goodie! |
| I love doing step workouts, but I hate complex choreography. I want to be able to pop in a DVD and get a good, quick workout without having to stand there, studying the moves. This is a simple yet fun workout where I really get a sweat going! Kathy cues exceptionally well - I was able to follow when watching it the very first time. I liked that she cued BEFORE doing the move - too many instructors cue AS they're doing it which is really not helpful. Those instructors need to take some lessons from Kathy. Yes, her 'whooping' is a little irritating, but she doesn't do it too many times in this workout. A good, solid step workout. - posted by Candace on 10/24/2010 |

    Still Great After All These Years |
| With all the different exercise crazes out there, I always somehow end up gravitating back to Step workouts, and this is one that never disappoints. Yes, it is starting to look dated with all the funky leotards, and the music seems a little dull, but the workout itself is challenging without being complicated or dance-like. It's just a solid step program with a decent upper body and abdominal toning segment at the end to balance all the lower body work. As usual, Kathy Smith's form and cuing is excellent. This is Old School, and it gets the job done! - posted by Kris on 10/13/2010 |
