This video is plain weird. It ought to be called AirheadStep. First, what's good about it: The moves are unique and never boring. They're varied and not monotonous like in the Video. The set is also pretty interesting-- there are spinning discs in the back and simulated waterfalls along the sides.

This video is the antithesis to the Video. Where the Video is dark and serious, this video is really brighly lit and very light-hearted. Too much so. Gin's giddy and instead of her usual athletic crew, she has these two really skinny model-types right behind her with big, corny smiles plastered on their faces all the way through. One of them looks exactly like Celine Dion, and nearly as anorexic. I found them nauseating. I didn't want robotic cheerleaders.

There are several combinations of moves which are put together at the end, and each set has a theme. The music is okay, too.

This tape has an overall alien feel. I don't know how else to describe it-- it's pretty surreal. It's a good intermediate workout and the moves are genuinely fun. However, I really couldn't stand the two supermodels behind Gin. They even have their hair loose and in perfect, sculpted ringlets. Sickening.

Even though I broke a good sweat with this video, it didn't leave me feeling like I'd accomplished much. I'll use this video once in awhile, but overall I'd give it a C. If you're thinking about buying this, I'd recommend Intense Moves. That video is a serious workout-- no frills, fluff or dancing bimbos.

Instructor Comments:
I love Gin Miller-- her Intense Moves video hooked me. However, in Aerostep she's a little too giddy and enthusiastic. She's less of a serious athlete and more of a giggly aerobics instructor. Ugh.
