Are you new to step? How did you do with this routine?
Are you a more experienced stepper? Comment with a little motivation for those just starting out ❤❤
Well this might be a long one...I'm Julie, I live in Alaska, I was a group fitness instructor from 1995 until 2015 when I retired to be more available to help out with our new twin granddaughters. I taught mostly step for those 20 years, but also taught group barbell classes, yoga, old school aerobics, spin, and even dabbled in aqua aerobics. But step was always my first love. I stopped teaching step in 2008 when the network of clubs I worked for went to the Les Mills programs where we used their music, their choreography, etc. It wasn't for me. I was/am a big fan of creating my own choreo and using my own (licensed) music. I did continue teaching other group formats that didn't fall under the Les Mills brand, like yoga.
So, I haven't been on a step other than to use it at a weight lifting bench since 2008. Today I found that my anxiety and depression was kicking up a bit and I knew I had to nip it straight away before I created too many neural pathways based on fear and anxiety. I used to run after GF retirement but I'm 57 now and my knees and ankles have had enough of the road pounding so I didn't want to go back to that right off, even though I know it would help and I do love the feeling of running. Anyway, I looked at my step bench and thought....wow, maybe I should look on youtube for some step workouts. I bet that will help get me out of my funk.
I found you. Thank you for that short and sweet and somewhat harder than I remember it being workout! It was the perfect reintroduction to step! I even found myself smiling and thinking I may do another short step class of yours. I'm fit cardio wise, but like I said haven't been on a step in ages..it's a whole other beast. I used one set of risers. It may have been too much for the first time back in almost 10 year! But I got a good workout and felt mostly comfortable and towards the end I could feel that old muscle memory start to respond. I even started cueing the moves with you...I'm a pointer...so I would point to which side as I cued! It was funny to be honest. I didn't miss a beat! I still got it! LOL!
So in closing I just want to say thanks for putting yourself and your workouts out there for those of us that can't get outside (it's 35 degrees today and raining on top of snow which means ice) or maybe we don't feel comfortable in a gym/class setting anymore. I think I found a new cardio home (I also have an iFit membership with our nordictrack studio cycle so I can cross train and mix it up a bit, I use the iFit membership for strength and yoga as well) but I see you also have other formats and I may try them out as well.
Again, thanks so much and I think you found a new follower!
Oh my goodness@@juzymcd !! This is so awesome!! It is the ULTIMATE Compliment to have fellow instructors with me!! I am so warmed by this comment!!! Thank you so much! Please let me know if you have any questions about my channel and if you are looking for any other specific workouts!!! I am so grateful to have you with me!!!! Keep rocking that step!!! Lots of LOVE
I've had a few years away from step but in my 50th year decided to take it back up. I found this video to be a great start up. Did the class without risers but might try with next time.
Thanks so much for joining me!! So happy you enjoyed it!@@CP-gj1mt
Wonderful guide. Did all. Not new to step workout. Thank you!
I'm 55 and have been doing step workouts since my 20s. However, for some reason in my 40s I lost all coordination (maybe kids and weight gain are to blame lol). I am so lost now when I do it in a class. So last week I pulled out my old Jane Fonda step and decided to find someone on UA-cam. Thank you for helping me find again the joy of step aerobics. I think I'll stick to step class in my living room.
YAY!! Welcome back to the step!! You will be back to it in no time!! Keep me updated on your progress!
I never find a basic class boring. I add a riser and the slower pace give me an opportunity to really focus on form, footwork, making sure weight is over the foot, keeping a straight back, good range of motion through arms. If you are hesitating....don't....Chris is a fantastic instructor and makes the movements easy to follow.😀
Great job Jackie!
20+ years ago, I was a step pro. Now I'm an overweight, over-50 sloooow stepper. Thank you so much for this video. It was just the right sort of re-entry.
YOU GOT THIS Natalie!!!!!
52 yrs old and zero coordination for following classes so have never done step (or any other aerobics class)before. Managed to follow along and almost keep in time! Felt just the right level of intensity for me as a beginner. Really hoping that in time it will help strengthen my legs to support my creaking arthritic knees! Next time will add risers.
Bonjour de France, merci pour ce cours BASIC , je reprends le STEP et c'est parfait pour moi .c'est TOP
I haven't done step aerobics since the 80's. Now at 61, I am struggling with balance and co-ordination. I managed to complete this workout though I was a little behind, but it was a really good reintroduction to this type of exercise. Thank you.
60-YO male, slightly overweight. Ten years ago I was an Ultra-distance cyclist (500 mile races). I’ve been a slug for the last 5 years due to some medical problems but mainly sloth. Thank you! Worked up a good sweat but boy do I have coordination and balance issues! I’m committing myself to repeating this training until I can match your moves. You are very motivating!
This is the first time I’m doing step aerobics. I’m 65. This was just the right speed for me. Thank you.
My 6 year old daughter and I just did this and killed it! You made it so easy for us to follow and learn as newbies! Can’t wait to do more 💕
I am 73 years old. I recently had surgeries. I have had two hip replacements and a knee replacement just this past year.
Prior to this, I always loved working out and did step aerobics a lot.
I appreciate how well you queue the steps and I’m hoping that I will be able to get back into step aerobics.
You are a great instructor and encourager ‼️‼️😃
I am not new to step but its been a while. I started in the 90's with Kathy Smith, Gin Miller, Gilad etc. I'm 57 now and I really enjoyed your step workout! Now I mostly walk and add in step a few days a week. I'm happy to have found you C! Thanks for all you do! I started watching you first during the shut down. Im looking forward to more step with you!
Yea yea!!! I just did my first step class with You😅!!! Omg it feels so good. I haven't done step in over 12 years. I'm 72, and it felt great to get myself moving again. Normally I walk or hike, but it's too hot outside. See you tomorrow 😊
❤ I’m 65 and haven’t done step in a long while. I didn’t use a step this time but will next time! Thank you!!
This was a fun workout. I haven't done step since high school. I'm excited that I made it though this class
I’m 71yrs young and it’s been a long while since I’ve done step aerobics, not to mention also overweight at 5.4 height! I remember how fun it was and enjoyable ❤! This morning was TOUGH but I did start out using my step and then finished the aerobics on floor. Prayers needed to continue 🙏 with the step!
In my 50s & never did step before because each time I tried I failed dismally. I must say that you are such a good teacher. My first day wasn't the best, but I'm definitely doing it again & I'm sure I will get it right. Thank you for your patience ❤🎉
Easy to follow and dinamic! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I was able to complete the workout! I really appreciate your instruction and cues!! I look forward to working out to more of your workout routines!!! Thank you!!
I can barely remember when I first started step classes & routines. I hope anyone who has been apprehensive about doing step gives this one a try. You were very patient with your class and instructions.
YAY Thanks so much kiki!
Just did this workout for the first time. I am recovering from a partial ACL tear. I used to attend step classes often but have been away from it for about 6 years or so. It was really fun doing this and it was a great place to start since I need to go easy with my ACL right now. Thank you for putting out a super basic, beginner step workout!!
You are an incredible teacher. Your cues in advance of each step change are perfect. I taught Jazzercise back in the 80s, so I know how important good cuing is. And you provide great motivation for those getting back into step or newbies starting out.
My story-70 years old and getting back into step after being away from it for decades. Starting off slow, but I’m so happy I’ve found your excellent channel. I can’t wait to see my progress as I follow you. Thanks!
I’m in my 40’s and this is my first time doing a step class not to mention I’m getting back into aerobics after a long break (think in terms of years 😂 ). I did no risers, this was simple enough for me to follow and not get too bored. I plan on doing this video for the next month to just get back into the habit of working out. I know I will get bored so I plan on adding risers and or carrying dumbbells to up the intensity if needed. But thanks for the content and the reminder to not judge myself to harshly as I go. Even though I was super active in my younger years, I have to remember to start from where I’m at now and not where I was. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this! I am an experienced stepper, but have had 2 calf strains in the past 7 months that I am recovering from. This was the perfect routine to help me ease back into step.
Have had two knee replacements since 1/24. This is my second time doing this step video and it is a great workout! Today I was able to do the triple knees!! Trying to strengthen my legs. Did step in the 90s!
New to step. This was a good challenge for me. I had to stop a few times for a few seconds, but I did the complete workout. Thank you, this was great!
I did it! Thank you for a great, easy to follow workout. It also helped seeing the timer in the corner, which encouraged me to press through to the end. I’m 62, and just decided to get my step out that hasn’t been used in many years. I kept up with you, though many times with the wrong move or other foot, but at least I was moving! 😁 I’m sure next time it will be easier as I catch on, and eventually, I can add the risers. I’m looking forward to checking out your other videos too…I love your encouragement! 💖
Having never had a go at step aerobics I am 61 and from Australia and only just finished this routine it has given me back hopefully motivation to start getting back into some fitness and back walking which I enjoy very much. Thank you can’t wait to do more.
Great beginner step to get back into it! Thanks!
It has been many years since I've done step aerobics. Due to a previous injury and my age, I decided to start slowly. This was perfect , I'm 62, and this pace was perfect. I got a really good workout (the sweat is dripping off me) and will continue with this until I'm strong enough to move up. Thank you, I highly recommend it.
Christina, you are AMAZING !!! I admire your energy and patience for all "categories" of us - young, middle age, seniors....I was used to "practise" Step Aerobic 30 yers ago and now I am SO HAPPY to watch your videos and COME BACK 😊👍. Please don't stop!!
Thank you so much for joining me!!!! You are so kind!!
I’m 69 years old. Years ago I stepped all the time and loved it. I decided to go back to it because “they” say you should exercise by doing what you love. I was amazed at how it all came back and I loved it ! Great cues and I used my air buds so that I could really get the beat of the music. Can’t wait to do another one. Thank you CD!
YAY!! Thank you so so much for joining me ANN!!! YOU ROCK!
In my 50s and looking to add some more cardio into my daily routine. Loved this beginner introduction class. Lost my coordination once but kept up the rest of the time. Thanks for such a fab video. I came here after Alex from My Yarny Corner mentioned that she was doing your videos 😊
I did thin one today. Starting to learn the step classes and exercises. I for the 20 minutes slowly but surely
Hey Girl, your workouts never cease to amaze me. You explain everything in simple, easy-to-understand, and easy-to-follow steps. Aerobics has always been so boring for me, especially if the instructor had no personality 99% of the time.
Your workouts make me feel like I am in the same room with you, having a great workout with my best friend. You have such charisma, with excitement in your voice that keeps me motivated.
I would just like to mention to anyone reading my comment. Working out with Chris takes aerobics to a whole new, fun, and exciting level. I am not a person to comment on anything, anywhere. But I have to give credit where credit is due. Thank you again for being YOU. Your biggest fan in Ohio.
When I first started step I was such a mess. But now I’m an experienced stepper and really enjoy it. I added an extra riser for this workout. It’s nice for me to do a beginner step workout just to focus on form and getting my heart rate up. Thank you Chris!
Great job Mel!
Great idea!
Awesome workout. I'm a beginner but when I fell behind a couple of time. I started again. This workout is perfect for me. Thank you. I feel so comfortable doing.ypur workout. Never did step aerobics in my life ❤
I loved this easy simple to follow step workout. It was just enough for today. I love all of your basic low-impact step videos. 20-35 minutes in length is perfect for me. thank you!!
Chris I can’t begin to Thank“YOU” enough for this amazing video. It was Fantastic ❤. As a senior with issues 🙄. It was so helpful 👏❣️
Wow, thank you! I will definitely put out another!
Please!!@@CDornerFitness
Hi I am 46 since I turned 40 my overall fitness coordination and strength went down the hill to the point I can't get off the floor without holding to something. I always worked out step zumba etc now my balance is bad. But I can't gave on me so I did this class with fear of falling and I didn't 🎉🎉🎉 I am in tears I think I spot my old self in there....thanks I will continue until I am back❤
I’m 70. Used to step years ago when all my kids were small and I couldn’t get out of the house to walk. I have been back doing mini tramp for a while but decided to get all the junk off my step and get back into it. Really enjoyed this one and got through it all without too many missteps. Will definitely keep going as part of my campaign to fight off old age. Thanks for this one. ☮️ 🙏
Hey you, thanks for this class of step, I was used to doing that twenty years ago, I was in advanced level and I hope catching on to this again. You are helping me a lot to get it over from scratch.
New to step aerobics, I did fairly well with this routine, made it thru all the way, a little trouble with my coordination, but I'm sure after a few more tries I'll get it right. 😊😊
Over 55, step pro and lover from the past. Menopause has wracked my joints and muscles but I’m starting here. I modified when I needed and feel I got movement but not wracked. Tomorrow I hope and expect to feel the sweet soreness of getting back to it. Great video, thank you!
YAY!! I am so happy you are back at it!!! Let me know how you progress!
Chris I missed yesterday. I felt something was missing but my legs were feeling it. I did your workout today. I'm definitely getting better. Your enthusiasm and talk before your workout helps me to keep going. It's okay if I miss 1 step. I just keep going. I'm sorry happy I discovered your workout. Thank You. PS Never did aerobics, never had an interest. Now I realize how enjoyable and how good it makes me feel. You Rock!!!!
Thank you ⚘️
This was a great learning step workout!! I had trouble following other step workouts!! I was able to make it through the whole 20 minutes!! Thank you so much for the help learning. I will return daily until I can go to the next level!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Whew! Great first time step for me!
Good day Christina, my wife has been following you for sometime and she suggested that give it a try. Today is my second session with this routine. I am still working at it, it is slowly coming together. I have been enjoying it.
Hi this is Gail from the UK I am 62 and find your workouts brilliant. I am finally keeping up with you😊 ❤❤in it
Hi Chris ,I'm very new to step, I've managed to complete the real basics (20 mins) 3 times. You're so right that it becomes easier each time. I'm still waiting for my step to arrive so I'm still tapping about on the floor, whilst learning the choreography.
I run the video at 0.75 speed,that's a great tip for an older beginner, like me.
Thanks for your patience 🙏 happy stepping 😂
First time today made it through the first time made several mistakes but just corrected myself and kept going , loved that you gave all the encouragement before the video . I will be back I started Nursing school this past spring and put on 10 lbs from the stress eating, but thank you for the encouragement and understanding .
Great job!!!! Yes, with a little practice you will get better and better!!! We are make those mistakes!! I am proud of you!!! YOU GOT THIS!
I'm an ex trainer now on big journey with sickness and chemo... so this was good to do. Slower pace but needed so I don't pass out. Thank you from Kiwi Kim in NZ 🙂
This was so much fun! I didn’t think I would make it through the whole thing but I did! First workout in too long, thank you. This was just what I needed 🖤
Hey Chris Hey!!! Tuesday morning step workout to chase away the gloom of a rainy day, you say??! BOOOOOM!!! 💥 I did this! I found it quite easy and I was spot on with your cues, yay!! Go me!!! I added some extra bounce to the steps and enjoyed it so very much! You are an excellent teacher and I adore you 🥰 I had such a big smile on my face while I was doing this and was really in the groove, set me up nicely for the day!! Shower time now!!! I appreciate you so much!!!! 🖤🖤🖤
BOOOOOM Back at ya!! LOVE THIS!!! Have a great day Mazz!
This is the beginning class i needed. I may need to do this several more times before moving to intermediate
YAY!!! I am so glad you liked it!!!! Great job!!
I used to do step aerobics years ago. I bought a bench last week to restart. This beginner workout is exactly what I needed. Loved it. 20 minutes just went by with ease. Thank you Christina ❤!
YAY!!! So glad you enjoyed it!! Thank you!
@@CDornerFitness I have been doing this one for three weeks now and enjoyed it. One day I tried to do a faster one at 130bpm but could not take that speed and some of the more complicated L step that came with it. Lost balance and fell, but got up immediately. Do you have any more step workouts for beginner seniors at 124bpm or slower?
Also, for senior beginners, how many inches high is the minimum a step needs to be?
Will appreciate a response. With gratitude....
@@aneetam Here is the link to my beginner step playlist ua-cam.com/play/PLvftKxea83m53j9BibGCZTq7bmxjSo9Vy.html
I would recommend only using the step platform with no risers or You can use no step if you want to until you get better.
Did this one to finish my steps for the day LOL. Thank you!
I was skeptical because my preferred genre is 90s hip hop/r&b…that’s clearly not a you thing, just motivation for me. Your words inspired me to follow through with the video & you were wonderful! I browsed many videos until I found you. This was my first time stepping ever today & I will be returning! Thank you!
I think I've finally moved onto intermediate step this basic one was great to work in. I needed just a bit more movement after my initial cardio and this was a nice slower paced step. Your intro was what I needed to hear....not necessarily for step but for other areas of my life ❤
This was perfekt for the first workout! Thank you❤
Thank you.
I found you yesterday I did so much better than I thought I did with your instructions that I did this one today. Hopefully I can actually keep this up because you’re a great instructor! 🙏
Hi @GG-vg8fr! Welcome to my channel and thank you for saying hello :)
Thank you for truly doing a beginner step workout. I was able to keep up and learn the routine well.
YAY!! GReat job Wanda!!!
Christina, I'm glad I found your channel. This is my first step routine. I kept up with you because you made it so simple to follow. In my Dory voice...Just keep moving.
WOOOO YAY!! Welcome!! I am so happy you enjoyed it!!! I hope you will come back for another!
first time trying….its good….will be back….thank you
Welcome 😊 Thank YOU!
Absolutely loved this! It was so easy to follow along with as a newbie and will be doing it again!
I can't thank you enough for this video. 10 years ago I was in the best shape of my life in my early 40s. Through a series of accidents and trauma I let myself go completely. I saw a picture of myself today from that era, and I decided today was the day I had to start changing things.
Thank you so much for this video. It was the perfect start to get back into it... a little sore on my left hip and some vertigo, but other than that I think I have found the new channel to subscribe to for fitness. Thank you so much!🙏
YAY Thank you so much Sharon!! Keep me updated on your progress!! YOU CAN do it!!
2/3 days done so far. Thank you for creating a space to get back into fitness after such a long fall. I really appreciate your non-judgmental approach. You ROCK @@CDornerFitness
I did step aerobics a long time ago. But this was a great way to begin again. I was a little rusty, but it was good!😊
First beginner workout and I was able to follow along easily even though I’m not a very coordinated person! Good workout and looking forward to more… used one step extension this time - maybe I’ll add the second next time! 🎉 thank you!
YAY! Thank you so so much! I am proud of you!! Keep me updated on your progress! I love to hear that!!
I am 56 and recently purchased a step aerobic platform to get back into step aerobics. Found your channel and since I am a newbie again to step, this workout was perfect! I was able to complete it in it’s entirety. Subscribing to your channel. 😊
Good morning, I am 60 years young and I completed this workout in full. I really enjoyed it thank you x
@CDornerFitness .. it’s been a minute! Used to love doing your workouts back during Covid - 2020-2021. January 2022 I was diagnosed with breast cancer and life changed. I’m back now after a right mastectomy 😢but cancer free. Starting over at the basics with a torn medial meniscus, plantar fasciitis and 30 extra pounds thanks to menopause (😡)
I’m so grateful for the selection of workouts that you provide. I feel like I can do this without any risk of further injury. Your BOSU one is still my favourite and I hope to get back there in time.
❤ Tracy from Alberta Canada 🇨🇦
Oh Tracy!! I am so sorry to hear that you went through that, but so glad you are cancer free!! Take your time and love every moment of getting back to you. YOU CAN DO THIS!!! Lots of love and support!!
Love your positivity & encouragement! The stuff you said starting off the cool down is really helpful! Thank you ❤
You are so welcome!
Back to step classes after many years out of it... thanks ❤
2nd day Chris. Omg much better. Your an awesome trainer. I look forward to doing this workout ❤
You got this! Keep it moving Carol!!!
Another great basic Chris, I tried your intermediate step but I could not keep up so I go back to your basic and I swear it gets me every time, I feel it in my legs and hips and I always finish drenched, amazing 😊
And that is PERFECT!!!! Great job Christine!
Great beginner workout and for one who would like to try a step with added risers. You don't have to be totally new to step to appreciate the simplicity of this workout. Thanks!
Thank you so so much!
I did step for 5 years, but quit exercise in 2008, I can’t remember why. LOL.
So this was my first step video.
Great workout, I made it to the end. You are great cueing.
The muscle memory kicked in about half way through the video.
I do not have a step at present….but I will very soon.
I love this workout! The slow pace, easy moves and short time help me stay motivated and moving on those days when I really don't want to work out or not feeling the best. Also a good video to try another set of risers. Would love to see a couple more step videos at this pace. Thank you Chris!!!
Thanks Bernice!
You’re a bloomin brilliant instructor, you’re always up beat and seem happy in what you’re doing. I love love love your videos ❤❤
Thank you so so much!
Thank You 🙏 Chris for making these videos for Seniors and Beginners. If my Mom was around I would have gotten her to try this. You are such an inspiration for all to just get up and move and give it a try.
Awe! Thank you so much Diane!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Just did this and it was great! Trying to get back my endurance after having my 1st baby, so I wanted something fun and non-weights related
Thanks Chris. I have been sick for 2 weeks now. This was great for me to start back at exercising. A great one for beginners.
So glad you are finally feeling better !
Yes it is fun. Even tho I was a beginner of years ago. I took years to learn step but I learnt it Chris ❤❤❤
🎉🎉I was so proud of myself. 1sr time doing this video, with some pauses, my goal it to complete with pauses
Thank you for making step aerobics doable and fun
Having done step classes in my late forties , I am now 75 and found this class fantastic starter for me.well done 😊
YAY!! Thank you so much for joining me and leaving a comment!
Loved this and found it pretty easy to follow. ❤
Awesome! Thank you for joining me! Thank you!!
I did it!!! First time all through!!
After the stretching did this workout. Perfect. Im as red as a tomato but it was perfect to start with. You make it easy. Did everything but on a low step. Im so amazed i can keep up. Brings back memories. 46 y old now, thought i could never do this again but amazed how flex i still am. I do have to work on the stretching more but these video's help me through everything. Thank you again.
WOO great job and thank you so so much for working out with me!
Awesome class for someone who wants to learn how to step and build a healthy habit of staying active. My daughter enjoyed it a lot. She was able to step along and now she is looking forward to the next class! Thanks Chris for thinking of everyone - newbie and experts - and for providing them an opportunity to be a part of your program! ❤
I cannot wait to have both of you on for a step workout!!!
Haven't done step fir years this was a great looking forward to do more 😀
I'm 36. I've been chronically ill for the last 3 years and with a 50lb postpartum weight gain since having my 2nd child who had a difficult start to life, diastasis recti, retroverted femurs that cause a lot of hip and leg pain - basically working out is really hard. I used to be a very fit and active person before I became unwell. I've been slowly making my way back to being active, even if not to the same level as before and even if I never get back into my old jeans.
I got through the whole thing with a few short breaks. Lots of sweat so it felt like a good workout. I feel genuinely proud of myself. I loved step as a teenager, but I forgot how much coordination it requires 😂
I'll be back!! ❤
I AM SO PROUD OF YOU TOO!!!!!!!!!! You can do it!! Keep us updated on your progress!
I'm a former Jazzercise and Step instructor. I'm currently spending 3 months in France. This is the first video of yours I tried and I look forward to doing other videos. If I only have a short time to get in a workout, this is the perfect length for me. Even though I've done all the moves before, I remember my first class in 2000, I felt like I had 2 left feet. For those just beginning, you may want to try the moves without the bench until you really know it. Then use the bench without any risers. Work up to risers gradually, or not. Some people never use risers.
WELCOME Kristen!! YAY!! Thank you!! I LOVE having instructors with me! I am so glad you enjoyed!!
Wow ! 15 years since I have properly exercised 🎉 now 51, and need to get back in good health. I love all you comments and great tips and amazing words of encouragement 😊❤️
Thank you for this first workout for me 😊🙏🏼🥰
WOOO You got this!! Come on back for another!! We have so much fun here!
Love this. I was an avid stepper in the 90's. Well older now, retired and somewhat outta shape. I did this beginner workout today and was able to do the whole routine using just the step and no risers. Fun, Fun! Looking forward to more. Thank you.
WOOO YAY!! Thank you so much Maryellen!!!!
This makes a great warm up for weight day.
But beyond that, basic step is a great indicator of how far we have come! Thank you
