Wow! I loved all the "new" moves! I will definitely do this again! I will be looking for these moves in newer Intermediate workouts! It was super fun! Thank you!!💖
Episode #322 - the one with the spider! Brilliant workout despite the unwanted distraction 🙂 Great class, great moves and one I will do again, thanks Chris!
I was just this video's one thousandth like, and I just subscribed. My husband just bought me a step I can use at home, and this is the very first video of yours I've done. I am SO THANKFUL you have put this out there for us. I'm a breast cancer survivor, finished up treatments the end of 2023, and 2024 is the year I'm getting my life back. You're definitely going to be part of my journey! Thank you!
Oh Susan!! WELCOME!!! I am so happy to have you with us!! If You can beat cancer, everything else is a breeze! I cannot wait to hear about your progress!! ❤️❤️❤️
I named this one Spider Step!!!!! 🕷🕷🕷 😂😂😂😂😂 You were WAY braver then I would've been!! 😳🕷 I was so pumped to be LIVE and doing exceptionally well with Intermediate moves👍 only to lose power halfway in😢😢 but I became a part of the AfterParty and did a do over later. There was a time I would've avoided "intermediate" Step as I have two left feet and a very low patience level😂 but being with you for nearly 3 years has changed that, Chris. Thank you for giving me the motivation and confidence to step out of my comfort zone. I had a BLAST with this one and Mr. Spider was great entertainment 😂 Keepin it real!!! That is what makes you the VERY best!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
This is the first “intermediate” step I’ve done. Thank you, Chris, for starting it with “focus on what you CAN do” because that’s exactly what I did. I finished the video and I’m so proud of myself. By the end, I had all of the moves down. All because you said “focus on what you CAN do”. Thank you, thank you, thank you! PS I just turned 37. Jelly head is one of my favorite songs and I have the club mix ‘97 double cd 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This one I am going to need to do for several days in a row. I am looking forward to mastering these moves. This I believe is going to be my segue into full intermediate step routines.
Thank you for a wonderful step workout Chris! Thanks for keeping it going even with such a worrisome distraction - I would have been the same way! So appreciate all you do for us! Thank you!
The last segment of choreo was my favorite of any you have done. So fun and funky!! I did this as day 4 of the 2 week workout challenge! Super fun! Thanks Chris!
I wish there was a LOVE button. I was literally laughing out loud about the spider and his friend. My husband checked to see what I was doing because I was laughing so loudly. This made my day!!
Loved this workout! It was slow enough that I could keep up and even catch up if I had a misstep in the routine. Loved your comments about spidey. You keep it real and genuine and that’s what I love about these videos the most. We are not robots or aiming for perfection. Just working to keep our bodies moving and staying healthy. Thanks for another great workout!! ❤❤❤
Great fun! It was very challenging for me but I stuck with it, I’ll have to try and do this a few more times and see if I can get it better. I’ve been trying more intermediate step the last few months, I think I’m getting better at it. Thanks Chris for all the awesome workouts!!! 🇨🇦
Another great step workout. Loved the routine and the music. Sorry about your spider problem today but you were awesome. Thanks for always bringing the fun.
This was one of my favorite videos yet! I loved the slightly slower tempo but more intricate choreography (at least for me lol). Thank you so much for all you do!
Oh. My. Gosh. I try and comment and boost these videos as much as I can. PLEASE give Chris a try!!! Her step videos are SUPERB!! Choreo, cuing, pace, EVERYTHING! PSSST try her strength videos!!! You won’t regret it!
Tango, mambo, cha cha!!! Save this choreography for Latin Dance Month!! And the Shake and Bake?! Love when we throw some hips in it!! Thanks Chris!! This is a fun one ❤😊
I did this step today…loved it and kept up with the routine all the way through even when you fell apart because of your resident spider and friend 🕷️🕷️!! I’m definitely at intermediate level now and for the time being that pace is also good for me too 👌👌 I’ve put this under “Special Step” on my TH-cam playlist so I can find it easily 🎉
First of all THANKS Chris for all your free videos ❤ I used to do advanced/int. step workout but this one was an Amazing workout ! Even if you miss a step, keep on moving as Chris said it's great when you did it 👍 Love your energy and your happiness ! Hugs to Anna and Louie ❤
At first I thought the BPM were going to be too slow but then it actually worked out better with the choreo which was a lil tricky but fun. Thanks Chris!
I always come back to this one, and I have a bad fear of spiders also, so I totally understand the distraction, always a fun one to work to and super sweaty this time, a great one to come back to ❤
This was just what I needed today. Decided to get a shorter step class in so I had time to do a mobility challenge. My muscles are screaming at me to stretch.
YAY! I don't know how you come up with fun and different chores from week to week, but you do! LOVED IT! Even better, I was able to do all three classes today, and not only that, be there LIVE! Thank yo use much for all you do!
#afterparty That was a great routine! #funwithstep Yes a few spots where you're distracted but made me think for myself and stay on track! #human Great pace and cool new moves. Thank you! 🤩
Your step classes are so uplifting and make me so happy every time Been a fan and subscriber for ages but this is my first comment ! I think you are brilliant ❤ Kerry from Johannesburg South Africa ❤
Hey Kerry!! YAY!!!!!! I am so happy you left a comment!!! Thank you so much for sticking with me!!! I have a group of ladies in SA that get together and do my workouts here and there!!
That was fun. I love intermediate classes at a slower pace! Coming back from a knee injury I did this on the floor and it actually made some things more mentally challenging. (like straddle after kick - something I don't normally have a problem with, but something about doing it without the bench seemed harder). This, like the dishwasher class, is an instant classic.🕷
Thanks, Chris! During Saturday's step class, I had a centipede hanging around my step. I was definitely kept an eye on that thing and managed to avoid squishing it while doing around the world. Joys of exercising in the basement!
This was a great workout. I usually do advanced but was feeling sluggish this morning. This was perfect. Got me moving and as always a fun and engaging routine. You amaze me with EVERY workout! Thank you! Hope you got rid of the spider!🤢
Thanks Chris, what a fun class, and the extra entertainment of the spider, I was really hoping to see a close up though. I absolutely love the intermediate level at a slower speed.
Whenever there is an incident, like a slide or the famous dishwasher step class, I always think I should delete the video, and then everybody tells me they like it, so I leave it there, lol. Thank you so much.
Even with spidey you are awesome and spidey nade it more fun! lol! Every morning my alarm goes off and I don't want to workout-BUT then I remind myself that I get to do a CDorner workout and that gets me up! Thank you for your awesome workouts!! makes my 5:30am in the dark, hot and humid outside workout so FUN!
A very effective and engaging workout. Step aerobics has always been one of my favourite cardio classes, but you are definitely the best step instructor and trainer I have met. I have found your channel as I was looking for an online step class during the pandemic and since I have found you I have become addicted to your weekly class schedule and workouts. Thank you for all the effort you put into making these classes so creative, interactive and suitable for everyone!
Pushed myself to do an intermediate workout after month's of doing beg-intermediate moves. I'm so glad I did. Time flew by. I really enjoyed the choreography. Messed up a few times, but chuffed with my first attempt 😊
Love your protective spider stance! A man recently came to my 85 year old mom's front door offering to get rid of her mosquitos and spiders and she said "NO! NOT my spiders!" As we sat on the floor rewrapping her cat's scratching post she pointed out the hard working spiders she loves. Thanks for these great intermediate workouts. They make perfect little pick me ups when my energy is dragging!
I like how you slow the tempo so someone who is intimidated by intermediate step can get it! I do like that push it move!!! You are the best teacher! ❤️💪🏻
Loved this one, but your distraction with the spider was messing me up😂 at first, all I saw was Louie's toy, and then all I could look at was the spider. And spiders don't bother me. Thanks for keeping it real! Hope you have a great Saturday Chris❤
Today I was planning on doing a longer hour of step and was really looking forward to it, but unfortunately went for a walk with my puppy before hand who decided to just lay on the floor and let another dog pee on his head, so I came home and had to give him a bath which he hates and tweaked my back in the process. It didn't hurt too bad and I felt I needed to move to work it out, so I decided to do this shorter video to keep moving and loved this slower and shorter workout which really helped my ease back today! SO, long story short, love the variety of workouts you offer, they are always fun and sweaty no matter what they are! Thank you for another fab workout Chris - I also couldn't take my eyes off that spider the whole time! 😂
thank you thank you. You are a ROCK STAR, if we can see that spider than it's a HUGE SPIDER. Burned 266 active calories Avg heart RATE 146 BPM topped out at 165! I'm dripping!
I’m discovering that I’m an intermediate pro when I do the 128 BPM! I think I’ll try one at 133 next. Also, why am I so afraid of the 60 minute step? I’m gonna have to go for it soon. 😅 Thank you for another great workout! Also, I couldn’t stop looking at that spider!!!! 🕷️
This was the first intermediate I tried. I need to review the side lunge and up rock tik tok tutorials but I mostly got it by the end. I was glad for the slower tempo. Thank you!
Just finished this fun fun fun step workout!! I have a few new favorite moves..the knee pivot, shake & bake & my new #1 move, push it!😄 Thanks for creating such amazing workouts! (That was a giant spider!!🕷️)
I kept keeping an eye on the 🕷️ for you too!! You’re a rockstar for getting through this. We are kindred spirits! I’m terrified of 🕷️!! I loved this work out even with the special guest! Thank you!
I can't wait to do this one again! Spidy will be less of a distraction next time 😂. I'm having fun with push it and Shake n' bake 😁. Thanks Chris!
Wow! I loved all the "new" moves! I will definitely do this again! I will be looking for these moves in newer Intermediate workouts! It was super fun! Thank you!!💖
Loved the music and the workout! Thank you so much 😊
Episode #322 - the one with the spider! Brilliant workout despite the unwanted distraction 🙂 Great class, great moves and one I will do again, thanks Chris!
Glad you enjoyed it! OMG, Live is always something! Lol
This is a great one I can't believe I never did before. Loved it! Thank you.
Thank you for all you do, love your classes.

Thank YOU Dorothy!
Just watched this and it looks like lots of fun. Looking forward to trying it tomorrow. You are the best😊

You're welcome!

YAY YAY YAY!!! I am so proud of you!!!! That is a great song LOL!
This was wonderful! Loved the chorography and the 35 minute length class. Thank you Chris!
Thank you!
This one I am going to need to do for several days in a row. I am looking forward to mastering these moves. This I believe is going to be my segue into full intermediate step routines.
Love this! 128 BPM and intermediate! The perfect tempo and level. Look forward to more. Thanks Chris!
Such a fun class. I messed up a bit, but I kept moving and didn’t beat myself up. 🎉
Thank you for a wonderful step workout Chris! Thanks for keeping it going even with such a worrisome distraction - I would have been the same way! So appreciate all you do for us! Thank you!
HAHHAAH anytime!! The show must go on!
This is my FAVORITE step combo EVER! SOOOO much fun! Love the 128 bpm. Thank you! I'll be doing this one over and over!
My new favourite intermediate step workout!
Yay thank you!
This was probably my favorite choreo to date. So fun! It's hard to push through an "off" day and still be positive while teaching. You're fabulous!
Thank you so so much!!!!
The last segment of choreo was my favorite of any you have done. So fun and funky!! I did this as day 4 of the 2 week workout challenge! Super fun! Thanks Chris!
So appreciate the variety of workouts available on your channel. As a woman in her 50s, it is so important to diversify for the body and mind!
I wish there was a LOVE button. I was literally laughing out loud about the spider and his friend. My husband checked to see what I was doing because I was laughing so loudly. This made my day!!
Another perfect, and effective, one
Je l’adore
Can’t wait for the advanced and faster one version on Saturday 😉
Thank you the Best Chris 🙏🏻💪🏻💃🏻😘
Thank you! 😃
Just did this one again and got all the moves this time. So much fun! Thank you.
Perfect quick step workout with fun choreography!
Loved this workout! It was slow enough that I could keep up and even catch up if I had a misstep in the routine. Loved your comments about spidey. You keep it real and genuine and that’s what I love about these videos the most. We are not robots or aiming for perfection. Just working to keep our bodies moving and staying healthy. Thanks for another great workout!! ❤❤❤
YAY!! Thank you so much!!! I like being unpolished LOL! ❤️❤️❤️
Slower pace, larger movements= great workout. Loved this one! Thanks, Chris.
Thank you Chris. A fun step class!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another great workout - love your combos!! x😁
Think that’s my favourite so far! Thank you ☺️
Yay! Thank YOU!
Your "not so great day" has become one of my greatest step workouts! So fun, so cheerful, it made my day, so thank you Chris! 😍💃🤩
YAY Thank you so much!
Awesome workout! Knee pivot and shake n bake were a good combo! 🐥😁
Another fun step class. Love mixing up the intensity.
Glad you enjoyed it!

I love how human you are!
Another great step workout. Loved the routine and the music. Sorry about your spider problem today but you were awesome. Thanks for always bringing the fun.

I love this choreography! I really couldn't do the intermediate->advanced (I tried for a week!), but this restored my confidence.
Great job June!! I am happy you tried and found the sweet step spot for you!! This one is super fun. YOU ROCK!
Just saved to my favorites - so fun!!!
Thanks Karen!!
I just ❤️ your step. Your choreo is used in my Step classes in David Lloyd classes in the 🇬🇧 xx

This is my go to video when not feeling motivated
This routine was SO fun! The time absolutely flew by. Thank you!
You're so welcome!

That spider must have been huge, I could clearly see it, you must have nerves of steel! Loved the choreography & music. Thank you! 😊
OMG, it sure was!
I can't get enough of your workouts. They are inspiring and transparent. ❤
AWE Thank you so so much!!!!!
Loving the pants. Too cute. Thanks for a great sweat. -Lydia ☘️❤️
Thanks Lydia!
OMG I remember the wolf spiders from living in the Poconos. Glad it stayed put and you carried on like a trooper!
Hahah omg if that thing moved this may have gone viral 😂
Fab routine thanks Christina x
Thanks, Chris! During Saturday's step class, I had a centipede hanging around my step. I was definitely kept an eye on that thing and managed to avoid squishing it while doing around the world. Joys of exercising in the basement!

thank you thank you. You are a ROCK STAR, if we can see that spider than it's a HUGE SPIDER. Burned 266 active calories Avg heart RATE 146 BPM topped out at 165! I'm dripping!
HAHAH I know right!! OMG and it's friends keep coming to visit me!!
This one kept me challenged. I made a few mistakes but kept going. By the end of the week, I'll have it down pat :-)
Great video, spidey and all!!!!! 😂
Great work out!
Thank you!!
❤❤❤❤!!!!! Thank hou
I’m discovering that I’m an intermediate pro when I do the 128 BPM! I think I’ll try one at 133 next. Also, why am I so afraid of the 60 minute step? I’m gonna have to go for it soon. 😅 Thank you for another great workout! Also, I couldn’t stop looking at that spider!!!! 🕷️
This was the first intermediate I tried. I need to review the side lunge and up rock tik tok tutorials but I mostly got it by the end. I was glad for the slower tempo. Thank you!
Just finished this fun fun fun step
workout!! I have a few new favorite moves..the knee pivot, shake & bake & my new #1 move, push it!😄
Thanks for creating such amazing workouts! (That was a giant spider!!🕷️)
I kept keeping an eye on the 🕷️ for you too!! You’re a rockstar for getting through this. We are kindred spirits! I’m terrified of 🕷️!!
I loved this work out even with the special guest! Thank you!
💪💪 nice slow one
