One on One Step Workout

Kari Anderson
Year Released: 1994

Categories: Step Aerobics


As the title indicates, in this workout it's just you and Kari working out together.

This 30-minute workout is divided into two sections, plus warming-up and cool down. The first section is pretty easy to learn, the second is more difficult. I concentrated on the footwork before adding the arm movements. I usually do floor aerobics, so I'm not an experienced stepper and I like to keep it simple - it's tough enough not tripping over my feet on the floor, let alone on a step! If you're clumsy like me, then you might want to try the second part out without a step first to familiarise yourself with the moves. I'd been doing my Fonda Step and Abs tape before this, and the choreography in the second part of Kari's tape is definitely a move up in difficulty - more variety in arm and footwork. Kari makes it look so easy and is very graceful. The moves are low impact, but for the more advanced she shows where you can "power up" to make the workout more intense.

This is a short workout, which leaves time for stretching or strength work after. It's fun and interesting, and worth learning - even if you think you're choreographically challenged, as it's short enough not to become too daunting.

Instructor Comments:
Kari is friendly and encouraging, it's like she's really in the room with you and sincerely wants you to do your best. Her cues are easy to follow.
