So join the workout group, move to the music and start feeling good!

3 Walk Workouts - (12, 15, and 18 minutes)
Easy-to-follow moves include basic walk steps, marches, kicks, step touches and knee lifts.  Have fun with tempo variations and directional changes.  The low-impact cardio section fully engages your entire body.

3 Strength & Flexibility Workouts - (18, 23, and 30 minutes)
Each workout takes you through a yoga standing and floor workout. Breathe deeply and relieve stress as you increase strength and flexibility.

3 Dance Workouts - (14, 22, and 28 minutes)
Get down with some basic moves you can take to the dance floor or use when you're just having fun at home.  If you're not a dancer, don't worry. The steps are simple, and before you know it, you're dancing!
