I think it would be great to have more advanced workouts from CS as well. Although CS certainly gets harder as you (re)familiarize your body with the techniques, there's definitely an advanced crowd that would love to see Miranda take it up a notch on dvd. Perhaps you or Jackie could drop that little bug in Miranda's ear!

As much as I love the CS episodes and the newer Ultimate Stretch dvds, I would love more advanced stuff from Miranda and Sahra.

The Sculpt workouts that came out last summer seem to me the most challenging of their material, and I would love more like them and maybe even tougher.

I have Pre-chor 1. I love it. I'm waiting on funding before I get any more of the pre-chors, though

Such a vidiot, the two of you.

It would be even easier on them if they did an advanced 'live' class!

Yeah, maybe with some VFers as background exercisers (not me, but maybe Glamgal or JackieB?).

As a 67-year-old, I'd love to know what all you young whippersnappers think a 67-year-old moves like.
Apparently a lot better than this whippersnapper!

Jackie & Jennifer: What a great photo! Thanks for sharing! Jackie, your haircut is awesome!

I took several classes with Sahra and she is more like 5'6. I'm a solid 5'5 and she is a tad taller than me.

I am so glad to hear that Miranda is as nice and as much like I'm sure most of us have always imagined she would be!

It's always so disappointing when instructors turn out to be not-so-nice when we have always pictured them being as fun and friendly as in their videos. It sounds like Miranda is someone I would enjoy meeting.

She had been leading classes all week (the Teacher Training ones) and she still put a lot of energy into our's and was great to have as instructor. Been good if it had worked out to have time to just socialize with her.

Good to know!! I only heard from hear-say from a beautiful glamazon Essentrics instructor from Canada who must be at least 6' tall. Maybe to her, Sahra seemed shorter? Although, I tried to fact check on Google before I posted that tidbit and I couldn't find anything about Sahra's height. The best indicator I could find were a few pictures of Sahra with Sarah Gadon...she is 5'3 and they both appeared to be a similar height.

ETA: fuzzie - I am still so jealous that you've visited the main studio in Montreal. That is definitely on my wish list to do!!
