My first Cathe workouts were Rhythmic Step and Power Hour and then I bought her CTX Kickbox workout (all VHS). I was so intimidated by her. And I remember not being able to move my arms the next day after doing the biceps section from CTX Kickbox. :p

Sad to see this era end. Fully digital migration is definitely happening. I heard there's a huge uproar going on right now with PlayStation users because Sony announced it's discontinuing its discs, too - so even huge companies are doing it. Will be interesting to see if the backlash they're getting from their customers will convince them to reverse course or not.
I believe I purchased them back in 2002.
 
Mega Step which we promptly renamed Mega Death Step. It seemed so hard compared to the workouts that I was doing -- Step Reebok, Kathy Smith, Gilad (RIP) and Cher's step workout (anyone remember that one?) I have all of Cathe's workouts (except spin) on DVD now, but I still have the original VHS Mega Step it is on a display shelf in my gym.
 
I discovered Cathe sometime in either 2016 or 2017, I can't remember exactly. My first purchases were DVDs, Party Rockin' Step 1 and 2, Basic Step & Body Fusion, and Low Impact Step.
 
Definitely VHS was first, And probably either “Takin’ It From The Top” or “Home Step
Workout”, both Cathe’s. Somewhere between 1991 & possibly 1995…either from Collage Video or Step n Motion direct, as they used to have a toll free number you could call & order workouts. Used to use that number quite a bit!
 
1998, I found Maximum Intensity Strength. Then I purchased Power Max. I think from Collage Video, VHS. They were such a big improvement on others I had tried. Haven't really done anyone else since then. Cathe leaves me feeing like i worked out!
 
Whoa - from Basic Step to the highly choreographed Party Rockin's in the same purchase! I enjoy choreographed step but it still took me a few trys to learn those two.
Fortunately, I pick up choreography quite quickly. I used to do ballet and ballroom/latin american dancing. I was already doing some step workouts and the Dancing Off the Inches workouts before discovering Cathe. Even so, those Party Rockin' Step workouts took me a few tries to master, especially the last couple of routines when I was more fatigued.
 
I think my first Cathe dvd purchase was Cardio Core Circuit and the rest is history!! That was around 2009 when the Shock Cardio series came out.
