I love this new concept of double stepping. It makes it so different and fun stepping with 2 benches. I would love Cathe to do something like this!! It is a lot of fun and very fresh!!

Hey Aila!
If you don't mind the silly question please...exactly what is double stepping??
I have never heard the term before? I am picturing 2 steps set up next to each other with some space in between and doing a routine that alternately uses each step ...am I close? If that's what it is, I think I need about 10 mores years of SINGLE stepping before I venture on to double! LOL

Hi Wendy,
Yep..that's exactly what it is!! You have a home bench and an away bench. I guess they are about 2-3 feet away from eachother side by side vertically. It is so much fun though. I have taken a couple of classes with my sister and it is a ton of fun!! I also have "The Next Step" workout with Seasun Zieger and she does a double step bonus on there for 20 min. My sister and I love this type of stepping!! It's a different kind of stepping, but a nice change of pace!

Sounds like you would need alot of room to do this workout not to mention buying a second step.

LOL Cathy...but what I would really worry about is having TWO steps to trip over or fall off of instead of just one! x(
I just started stepping with Basic Step and Body Fusion this week...I don't think I'm ready for double stepping! lol
Take Care!

It's not as bad as it seems. It's actually a lot of fun and maybe you all should try it. A lot of clubs are offering it nowadays. It gets quite boring doing the same ole same ole when you have been stepping for over 16 years like I have. Cathe is always adding new equipment everytime she puts out a new series, so it would be nice if she would put out a workout like "The Next Step". Cathe is great with coming up with "fresh" advanced workouts!!

If I ever get to the point where I am very good at stepping and really into it, I would certainly consider trying it. I guess once you have conquered advanced choreography, adding another step probably is NOT as mind boggling as it sounds!

I love double stepping. I do at my gym. The steps in my class set side by side. It's not hard at all, but you need good cardio endurance. It's a nice twist from the single step routines.
I had the same idea about Cathe doing a double step routine, but then again I realised that people would need to buy a second step and then need the room to set it up. It would be too much of a space hog.

Hey Aila!
I just wanted to tell you how freakin' proud of myself I am right now! :7
After doing the Basic Step and Body Fusion work outs only a few times each (and I haven't even "mastered" body fusion yet), I had the urge to try a harder step routine so I threw in Power Max! I kept it all low impact (have no choice for now) and I can not believe it but there were only 2 or 3 moves that really tripped me up! I was able to catch on to most of the footwork pretty quickly and was even able to string it all together with minimal confusion!!! I am beaming with pride right now!lol :+
Well, I just felt like doing a little bragging there!;-)
Thanks for listening!
