1. I wouldn't be able to show my face to any one

If I do something like that outside on the streets.

2. I love the stock music that sounds kinda like hits, but not completely. nt

[Xyzse]

5. And then her expressions are hilarious

[graywarrior]

3. I whinneyed and ate some oats...burp

[UtahLib]

4. I cracked up reading the comment

about the person who sprained her ankle and the doctor tried to shoot her. Be sure to read all the comments on amazon. They are hilarious.

Thanks for the laugh.

8. They disabled comments on YouTube. I'll bet.

All of a sudden Prancercize is all over. Creepy lil thing, isn't she?

19. You can still comment on her book at Amazon

Here's one review:

At first, I was so happy to find Prancercise! Finally a workout with the impact of chair-aerobics, the spunkiness of sweatin to the oldies and, the elegance of senior pride flag twirling. So I happily sold my shakeweight on ebay and began prancing away in my backyard twice a day for three weeks. I don't have leg wieghts but I found that 8 small tomato paste cans in a couple of fanny packs strapped to my legs with bungee cords works just as well (money-saving and delicious tip!)

The pounds started to melt off almost immediately. My barrel must be four inches leaner. I am developing great definition in my hock and withers, and I now have a stifle to die for. Unfortunately though, I must report that my fingernails have fused together and are forming some nasty-looking hooves on my hands and feet, and I seem to be growing a tail. I wouldn't mind that except the hair is very unruly and no amount of conditioner will make it shiny. I'm spending a fortune on ribbons and brushing supplies. Oh my blanket budget has also skyrocketed.

Overall, I am happy with the results of this workout regimen, but find the upkeep and maintenance a bit costly and unwieldy. I have begged my husband to give Prancercise a try because..well..y'know. But he is afraid he will have to buy a new wardrobe for his new physique.

22. A-HAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! That one is feeling her oats!

Gotta go check this out.

9. Playing horsie on the playground was never quite like that.

I'm trying to interest a coworker in it but not having a great deal of luck.

It actually does look like fun, and I might be able to get FMLA again based on a DSM-IV diagnosis.

10. Mr. Ed would NOT approve of this excercise,,,,

[patricia92243]

11. Her hair and outfit look like something from the 50's. If she didn't look and sound so silly,

probably the exercise might be ok.

I would like to see this same prancing done by someone who looks like people actually look in this century - bet it would be kinda cute.

[Bryn]

32. She looks so much like Laverne

From Laverne & Shirley old sitcom program in the 70's. lol

She needs a big "L" on her front shirt sewed on.

[BlueJazz]

12. Ah...she means well and she seems quite happy. I've seen far worse.

[Xyzse]

33. Agreed...

Still, can't help but laugh.

I still think good for her if it keeps her happy and healthy.
Not that I see something like that burning much calories.

[NightWatcher]

13. Is it a requirement that you also have camel toe happening?

Or Moose Knuckle, for our Canadian friends.

[alphafemale]

14. yikes. white spandex. I hope she never gets caught in the rain.

[BainsBane]

31. poor clothing choice

White spandex leggings and the wig.

[Callmecrazy]

18. I couldn't take my eyes off it...

You can't un-see something like that.

[Xyzse]

27. I didn't even know till you mentioned it

Now I can't get my eyes off it, and it makes me cry.

[Orsino]

15. Her hair was perfect. n/t

[Joe Shlabotnik]

46. +1

ahhwooooo

[Yavin4]

16. It's funny until Ann Romney sees you and slaps a saddle on your back

and enters you in the Olympics.

[LeftofObama]

17. ROFLMAO!

[CrazyOrangeCat]

20. DUzy!

[nolabear]

23. Bwahahahahaaaa!

[Xyzse]

26. That's perfect...

LOL

[Digit]

21. Well, she sure found her inner camel

The little prancey steps just help to accentuate it going to and fro, kinda in time to the music, doncha think?

[nolabear]

24. Do you suppose she makes that clippa-cloppa sound with her tongue?

When I was, oh, about five it sure worked for me!

[csziggy]

34. If she were only riding a bike she could Trotify!

38. I swear, sometimes the world is just awesome.

[Kingofalldems]

25. She has a book on prancing?

[tonekat]

28. Awww, she's adorable!

I'd love it if people started doing this in public, it would be so trippy! It may start showing up in clubs!!!

[MuseRider]

29. Besides all the other things

I thought about mentioned above (oh boy there are SO many things here) all I could think every time she lifted off the ground a bit while prancing was what one of my geldings sounds like when he prances.

This video would be perfect if they just added gelding farts. With every step. Seriously. He can go for 10 minutes like that.

Oh my. Oh my.

[CottonBear]

43. Fellow equestrian here. Equine prancing/trotting/cantering farts are awesome!

Non-horse people just don't know what they are missing! LOL!


She does look like she's in good shape. However, the top part and bottom parts of her outfit don't go together at all!

[MuseRider]

44. I was beginning to feel really stupid

for that post but you rescued me, thanks. Yup, I have 5 horses. I had 7 but have lost 2 over the last few years

I have one gelding that just has to be a record setter. With every step, kick, roll or just standing. He is hysterical.

She is in much better shape than I am but I am not too keen on prancing, just not happening for me

[CottonBear]

45. You are welcome!

Your gelding sounds like a hoot! No gas colic for him!

My Oldenburg mare was rarely farty, but I've known quite a few warm bloods and Thoroughbreds who were jet propelled!

No prancing for me either. Not. Happening. Ever.

30. Joanna- This guy wants to meet you at the water trough
