I just watched my first Sharon Mann segment and I cannot believe how bad it was. Her form, her choreography and her cueing were all pitiful. I have been an AFAA certified aerobic instructor for 18 years and I work with beginner instructors that are better than she was in that segment. Enthusiasm does not make up for performing moves in bad or even dangerous form, or for a lack of cueing. She couldn't even stick to her own choreography. Good grief, watch Tamilee Webb, Petra or the girls on the Carribean workout and see how professional instructors should teach. They should be perfect examples of good form, not throwing themselves around with music that is probably 20 to 30 BMP too fast. The dark haired girl to our right on the screen was even worse than Sharon Mann. If people at home try to emulate what I just saw they will end up with all sorts of injuries. More Petra and Tamilee segments please.

oh yeah are you serious.i didnt know what she is doing is dangerous.ive been working out with her faithfully am i in danger of hurting my self if i work out with her then?

You've Got To Be Kidding?

I don't know who in there right mind would call In Shape unsafe. As a instructor of twelve years myself, I have only great things to say of her. Here in Canada, Sharon has had a number of fitness TV shows over the past ten years that have always been very popular. She was even voted "fitness presenter of the year 2001". I attended a Reebok Master trainer workshop of her's a few years ago and she was amazing. Apparently she presents workshops throughout the world.

Everybody has a right to there opinion. I guess I just felt that you were overly brutal. From what I have seen, the only time her form seems to change is when she is demonstrating the different fitness levels. ie. beginner, advance etc. In regards to the shot to instructors in Canada, It was actually QVC (US home shopping channel)that I first bought her Works DVD. It sold out right away.

I have watched her and think she is a good instructor myself. I also like that her class has all different body types and not just fake brested skinny women.
