New Jari Love DVD(s)

[Amy Steppe]

Has anybody heard anything about Jari Love's new videos? I got a mail from her mailing list saying that she had filmed 4 new videos this summer and that she would begin releasing them at the first of this year.

I LOVE Jari and her workouts!

Has anyone heard anything about the release of Jari's new video(s)?

I have been breathlessly awaiting 4 new Ripped DVDs as much as STS. I think I will also get P90X and CLX. I just wish I had more muscles to work to make sure they all get their time turning me into jelly!

That's funny, though, with your name I would have thought you'd either prefer Amy Bento or step workouts!

I never thought of it that way....

I like Amy Bento (although she resembles a tree frog with a firecracker up its ass when shes does Advanced Step Challenge's Crazy Shuffles).

But I prefer Cathe and Jari to Amy.

Can't wait for more Jari!

I am really looking more forward to Jari's videos than STS. I think the long wait for STS has cooled my jets for the series.

Some of STS looks downright impossible for my fitness level.

P90X - Not a good choice for me. I wish that Horton would have understood that a camera is a mirror image because when he says begin a more on the right foot, his right is my left.

CTX - Fantastic workout series. It is so much better thought out and far more fun than P90X.

Another pro of CTX: Basic equipment is all you need. CTX is one of my all time favorite workout series by any instructor. Cathe and her cast just nail it in this series. 4 Day Split pales in comparison to CTX.

I was excited about Jari's new releases, but I've put them out of my mind.
The last tidbit of info was that she had 4 new videos. One would be released in 2009. I decided to put it out of my mind until they are all released. It's really annoying. She doesn't keep in touch with her fan base like Cathe does.

I pre-ordered STS in May and was really excited. Then, my enthusiasm dropped to concern. Can I do it? I agree, some of the clips look like you need to be a super athlete!
I just finished 4 weeks of Chalene extreme and I'm feeling much better about STS.
I'm really getting excited about it! I plan to finish the heavy phase of Chalene, and then move on to STS.
I think it's doable.

One thing is for certain.....this forum is going to light up when STS ships!!!
The excitement will be in overdrive!

Jari Love

You are right - Jari certainly does not keep her audience informed; however, to my knowledge she does not do presales. Therefore, since she does not have people who have made major investments in her new products, she probably does not compelled to give much information to her audience.

I will judge STS when I do it. STS seems to require a lot of equipment and room, but I am trying not to judge a DVD set I have yet not attempted.

Back to the subject, I just wish Jari would hurry up and release at least one of videos because I am a huge fan of hers. I was so excited when Jari announced that she had filmed new videos this past summer.

I think you said it very clearly. I too would like to hear more from Jari. Just letting us know where she is in the process of releasing her new workouts. I thought you were very respectful and made excellent points. I didn't hear any whining only some reasonable suggestions.

I read this post a few days ago, not knowing it was you. ITA!
I think it was respectful and honest.

I love Jari's workouts

Okay, I've seen this before; what the heck does "ITA" mean?

I totally agree

 

[morningstar]

People seem to either strongly agree with me or strongly disagree with me on that post. Definitely a polarizing topic, it seems. Oh well, maybe some controversy will breath some life into the forum over there.

Arwenlong:

I'm not a Jari fan but I was interested to read about her new DVDs so went to her forums earlier today. You are totally right in everything you say: her forums are practically useless. I thought your comments were spot on. Both Jari and Cathe are businesswomen and therefore will receive both praise and critique and need to take both equally seriously, Most fitness instructors/business persons pay way more attention to the praise. SNM and Jari are examples f this. It always annoys me when people posting critiques to SNM get so flamed by Cathe fans. As you said regarding Jari, it's not the job of other posters to defend these businesswomen. They are professionals and can do it for themselves. But, they do need to pay attention to all their posters, even those who have difficult questions to pose.

Yes, you are right, Jari could easily lose customers through failing to pay attention to her fan base. She may just reap what she sows from the neglect. Whatever! Personally, I am not inclined to seek out information on her new DVDs...
