Need challenging low impact step workouts. Help.

I know some of you have extensive knowledge of step workouts from people other than Cathe and I need recommendations. I'm totally familiar with Cathe so I know what I'm looking for are step workouts similar to Low Max, which I love but one isn't enough. If Cathe put out a huge series of challenging step workouts on par with Low Max I'd buy 'em all but that hasn't happened so I need recommendations for non-Cathe Low-Max style step workouts with moderate to difficult choreography. I can do mild hops but, until I have a proper plyo floor, I need to keep it close to the ground (my knees!).

So, what step workouts do you all recommend, from your own experience? I'll check out any and all recommendations. I REALLY need A LOT more cardio options (just got Cardio Coach, too). Thanks, everybody.

How about Gilad? I had one of his step workouts years ago and it was pretty basic -- not dancey at all -- more athletic type moves and not much impact IIRC. And he's pretty easy on the eyes, too.

Yea, I'm a bit past Gilad, though. If you've done LowMax you know it REALLY gets your heart thumping and that's the type of workout I'm looking for: no twinkie stuff but no damaging jumps, either. Gilad's stuff is more like Cathe's really basic stuff (i.e., If I can do it with my eyes closed I'm wasting my time). But thank you for responding - and I LOVE your cat.

It's not step but it's great fun. Tracie Long's Better Body Better Buns. Amazon has it for $15.00 http://tinyurl.com/6yvt9x

It's a functional fitness video and really works the core and the hip flexors with good cardio thrown in. She uses the med ball and rags or paper plates. (can use the Valslides if you have them.)
