The Firm: Crosstrainers - The Hare

Tracie Long
Year Released: 1995

Categories: Circuit Training (cardio and weights)


I just had to add my two cents about this workout: Overall, I find the ballroom aerobics fun but not too challenging, and I imagine that beginners and others who need lower intensity (pregnancy, post-partum, recovering from illness, etc.) might find it a good fit. However, there is one section that drives me crazy: the cha-cha. Tracie doesn't do the steps on the beat. Cha- cha music has a built in "cha cha cha" in the beat pattern, and that is where the triple step goes. She doesn't do it there, and it is completely disorienting to me. I have to stop watching her and do the moves on my own (on the proper beats) until the segment ends. Considering the usual meticulous care the Firm gives to maching music to workout, this makes no sense to me. But overall, it is a fun, lower-intensity Firm offering with good floor and ab work as well.

Instructor Comments:
She has always been my favorite.
