Hot Country Step

Ruth McGinnis
Year Released: 1993

Categories: Step Aerobics


A nice change of pace using country western music. The songs are upbeat and fun to step to. While the level may be beginner/intermediate it's sure to get your heart rate up and make you sweat. Ruth is easy to follow, her cueing is on target. The step routines are more athletically based. The kind I enjoy.

The visual effects and clothing worn by the cast are country. At first that was something I wasn't used to seeing. However, after a while that becomes less apparent because the music and step routines are fun to listen to and challenging enough to perform. The warm up is around 11 minutes and quite through. However, the cooldown is 8 minutes and not nearly as effective as the warm up. You may need to add a few extra minutes on your own.

I really liked this video. It's a welcomed change of pace along with the added benefit of being pleasantly challenging.

Instructor Comments:
Ruth McGinnis is the aerobic exerciser trainer to the stars. She is very easy to follow and pleasant to listen to. However, Ruth is extremely thin. Not that that is good or bad but more unusual.
