Tracy
Exactly! I've never tried YBB or Ruah, but just the realisation of how I prefer Ellen's style or Bernadette Giorgi etc. helps me a lot not feeling the 'need' to get everything that's out there/coming out!
I'm hoping Kari's Center Floor will be right along those lines! (I haven't even checked ou her Sweat Express one as I'm not interested in getting distracted with such workouts! LOL)

Did a Kari workout last night (Hot Steps) which reminded me that I really like her, but I'm NOT GOING TO LOOK - I'm on a buying hiatus and don't want to risk being tempted.

Hehe, almost passed this thread by...I think the only Kari Anderson workout I own is her kid's one: Shake! A lot of fun. And I really liked her. She has a great personality/voice - makes me think she was a communication or drama major Someone once told me that I should try Reach that I'd really like it since I like standing pilates/ballet. That Center Floor workout looks really good - wonder how long before I hit the "add to cart" option, lol I've bought way too many workouts since I started really posting in here, lol My promise to not buy anything but the new zumba this month has totally gone down the drain. All self-discipline is gone Even the dance workout looks really good to me. Looks like a lot of fun - loving the music and the set But I am definitely interested in the Center Floor one

From looking at the large picture of the Center Floor back cover I found that this has three sections; Standing "Center Floor" Challege - 32 mins., Full Body Mat Work - 13 mins., Lengthening Stretch - 11 Mins. I could do 11, 13, 24, 32, 43, 45 or all 56 minutes. Personally, I'm sure I'll rarely do the entire thing (and I will get it) but I'm also sure I'll add those short sections on to other things or a day I just need one more short (or even just plain one short) workout. I'll likely do the first longer chapter by itself, or maybe with the stretch. The two short ones together might be good for a week when I have to miss one of my Pilates lessons.

I love this kind of workout, workouts I can use pieces of, and Kari. I usually find her cardio too complex, though, so don't get it any more.

Karen,
thanks so much for letting us know! I had no idea but like you love when I'm able to mix and match or simply add on to other workouts! Now I'm even more glad I pre-ordered!

Same here, in fact I've been resisting opening this thread for that reason ... but I succumbed this morning and peeked at both. the look of both of them. I can't wait for reviews to start popping up!

I've ordered it from Mary and it was a pre-order for May 16th (I think..). I just checked my status and it's 'processing'.. Not sure when to expect it to ship out...

I noticed Collage has them set to release on May 26 now.

ETA: Total Fitness says they will be available May 27. I think it said May 16 when I ordered.
