I'd never really thought about it before... I don't think age matters to me as much as the instructor's style. I do NOT esp. like 'perky' instructors. Denise Austin, who is not really young, is like nails on a chalkboard to me. I did my first Amy Bento video today and liked her a lot. She appears to be fairly young, but was very get-down-to-business, which I like.

The age of the instructor makes no difference to me at all. I'd be happy to exercise to a cyborg if the workout were good. As someone said upthread, I don't identify in any way with the video instructor; to me, he or she is just there to cue the moves.

I am 37 and my favorite instructors are in the 35-40 age bracket including Tracy Anderson, Tracey Mallett, Jeniffer Galardi, Ellen Barrett, Amy Bento, Sylwia Weisberg, Alison Davies, Leandro and Shaun T. I also do love the more mature but perky pesonalities of Chalene Johnson and Christie Taylor but I cannot stand any of the younger 20ish Firm instructors !

I don't generally like very young instructors because it's hard for me to relate to them (not that they are bad or anything) although the ones I loved 10-15 years ago and still love, I am now 10-15 years older and they haven't aged at all, on DVD....if that makes sense, yet I still love them.

Only personality, I could care less about age. Paul Katami must be young, Tony Horton is "old" and both are my favorites just to name a few.
