Talking Aerobic Videos

I'm looking for an aerobic video with GOOD music. Not that fake wanna be musak versions of pop "hits" but a good driving beat that will make me want to pop the tape in and do it! Any African Amercian step videos out there?

The step class I go to is awesome. We do step to hip hop, reggae, etc. I wish I could tape her class and use it when I want to.

I don't know of any new ones, but the Grind (produced by MTV) is really good. You learn dance moves to real music, so that makes it fun and an effective workout.

Taking It To A Higher Ground with Benita Perkins is a step aerobics workout video and its set to fast paced gospel music. I got it from Amazon.com and we used it in my church fitness class.

We also used tapes we got from Victoria Johnsons Website she has tapes called Cardio Soul, Cardio Dance Hip hop Body Shop, etc.

for abs I have a great video called African Healing Dance its hosted by a lady named Wyoma. Its like a mix of bellydancing and a high energy African dance class. I ordered that from Amazon.com and with it came a video called The Method Afro-Brazilian Cardio.

I hope these help

Post no music but surely good results!!!

German Supermodel Claudia Schiffer has about 3 work out videos out. They are about 7 years old. They don't have any hip music in the exercise but I tell you if you just do the workout 2 times a day (30minutes) you're get results. I noticed that I was starting to get a stomach and after about 2 weeks my size 8 Hilfigers were falling off.

Do you have the exact title of these videotapes? I have some Hilfiger jeans (size 8) that I need to get back into.

fee fee go to amazon.com you should find the tapes new or used. I believe that they are called "the Claudia Schiffer workout video". There's one for you abdomen area, rear, and thighs; you have to choose from the 3.

this thread has motivated me to exercise tonight!
Has anyone used Donna Richardson workouts? (tom joyner's wife)

I have Denise Austin's "hit the spot" workout that combines cardio with light weight training / muscle strengthening. The music is wack but IT REALLY WORKS...

Get Tae Bo!!! You can't go wrong with it. You will sweat like you are in the Sahara desert, but you will definitely see results.

The Music is wickety wack, but I say it's worth it.

New York City Ballet Workout (& Vol. 2)

The music isn't "good", there is no "hip hop", but it is a great work out. I stretched and strengthened muscles I never knew I had.
