8 year old daughter uses your workouts

[joanneh2]

Hi Cathe,
First I would like to say I love your videos. I've been workingout to you for years, thanks for doing what you do.
My 8 year old daughter also likes your workouts, but I worry because her form and/or coordination with the step and kickboxing isn't the greatest. She also likes to do the weights with the circuit videos(I told her she can only use the 3 lbs). She doesn't do the workouts to often, maybe 1 to 2 times a week. But because her form isn't the best I wonder if its a good idea. I don't want to discourage her from excersing, because she really enjoys it. Just wanted to get your take on this. Thanks so much for listening.

I did see in some of the road trip pics, a young girl doing pushups with Cathe. It was so cute.

Her form? She's 8. As long as she isn't doing something that will cause her to injure herself, just let her enjoy it right now. Keep the step at the lowest possible height. It's great that she's showing such interest at such a young age. Her form will come later when she actually has more control over her body. Right now, just let her have fun and encorporate fitness into her life.

It is great your child is interested in fitness. Who knows, she could become a world famous fitness instructor with a numerous DVDs, calender, downloads, road trips, etc...
