Product Description:
Perfect for both peri- and menopausal women, the Kathy Smith Moving Thru Menopause video offers you solid medical information and three complete workouts. Each workout is precisely designed for specific menopausal concerns: cardio for a strong heart, toning to prevent osteoporosis, yoga for stress reduction and mental agility.

Amazon.com:
Keep your cool through peri-menopause and menopause by reducing short-term symptoms and increasing long-term health with this 90-minute video from veteran instructor Kathy Smith. The workout includes 20 minutes each of low-impact cardio (for heart, bones, weight, and mood), bone-building strength training, and stress-reducing yoga. The cardio section uses simple moves and patterns (no more complicated than a cha- cha), repeated frequently, with three choices of demonstrated intensities. Experienced aerobic dancers might be bored by the lack of challenging choreography, but beginners and moderate intermediates can find their level here. The strength-training segment is well instructed with exercises that work the upper and lower body simultaneously, so you get the most out of your 20 minutes. Smith also discusses the nitty-gritty details of menopausal symptoms, beneficial effects of exercise, and nutritional strategies, including a Q&A with doctors, making this a good source of information as well as a workout routine. --Joan Price



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I learned a lot about Menopause!
I was very plesantly surprised by this video and I learned a lot about peri-menopause and menopause itself, what to eat, what to do to help relieve symptoms, etc... it's extremely detailed and friendly.

The 3 workout segments are basic and short at 20 min. each - I liked the strenght workout the best. These shorter milder workouts are good for a day when I feel tired but want to do something good for my body.

Well done Kathy and thank you for talking about menopause!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My favourite DVD purchase in the past 12 months
I used to be neutral about Kathy Smith but this DVD really exceeded my expectations. I bought it initially thinking anything I learned about hormonal imbalance and perimenopause from this would be useful, and I thought even a one time viewing would make it worth my while. I was pleasantly surprised, and only wish I'd bought it back in my 30's! It's packed with a wealth of information. So much so, the DVD version is more practical so you can choose what parts to view on various days rather than ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great workout for everyone even if you are not going thru manopause
This is the 3rd Kathy Smith DVD that I've bought and I love them all. I like the variation and the intensity of the work out. A must have!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I really, really dislike this DVD
well I guess I'm the odd one out as I really, really dislike this DVD. I love aerobics. in my search to find an aerobics DVD I bought "Moving Through Menopause" based on the other reviews on this site.

my complaints settle around the aerobics part of this DVD, but that is what I bought it for. the workout starts at a ridiculously fast speed with no actual warm up. the choreography is horrible! it manages to be boring, while at the same time having you jump around like a jackrabbit on ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - excellant for all ages but thanks kathy for tackling the menopause!
I've worked out with Kathy Smith videos for years. I'm about the same age as her and was delighted when she tackled the subject of the menopause. It is a very postive dvd and it made me feel empowered.
I do work out regularly and found the cardio a bit too easy for me but will definately use it on days when I feel a bit tired. I would definately recommend this to beginners and intermediate exercisers of any age.
The workouts are short and therefore easy to fit in when busy.
