Reviews of Just a Step and Leanne's Chair Workout

Hi Leanne Love the DVD which I received 2 days ago. I particularly like the diversity of exercises and dancy style, just cos I'm in a chair now doesn't mean I wanna stop moving it! I've got very sore muscles at the moment, will have to curb my enthusiasm a bit.

Congratulations, I've been looking for a prog for years that didn't feel like a physio session.

Dear Leanne Congratulations on your autobiography. It was such a great read of sheer determination and guts.

Hi Leanne, Saw you on This Morning last week - you answered a prayer! I am 55 yrs old and had a below knee amputation when I was 21yrs old following a road accident. I'm married and have 3 kids (aged 30, 28, 25). Used to be very active and never really thought about exercising specifically but I'm having a lot of stump problems which is limiting my mobility so the weight is creeping on. Worse than that I am feeling down which isn't me at all - I have had to give up work which I miss dreadfully so I need to re-focus. I've looked endlessly for work-outs that don't put pressure on my legs but as you rightly say there just wasn't anything out there...until now. I have just ordered your DVD can't wait for it to arrive - if you keep smiling then I will too!

Hi Leanne, 24 hours after beginning to read "Just a Step" I have just put it down, finished.

I think you were very brave to lay out your life as you did and I have nothing but respect and admiration for you. I believe you have really opened eyes to our disability and I think people will be more aware of how much harder we need to work to keep up with simple daily events. I loved it !

I purchased your DVD last night via your website and I just can't wait to receive it as I am so hopeful that it will help me greatly!

I am very overweight and I have varied health problems including very bad arthritis in my lower back and painful sciatica. As you can imagine this make exercise very difficult as my mobility is so limited, thus making losing weight even more of a struggle, and I end up going round in circles! When I saw you on the 'This Morning' programme about your chair exercise DVD I knew your dvd would be so appropriate for me to do, I feel so excited about starting a new exercise programme with people like me in mind and I will be showing your dvd to my physio guy as I'm sure it would be helpful to lots of people.

I think it is just brilliant what you have overcome and achieved! I know I have'nt got the dvd yet but I know it will help me and I just want to say, in advance, Thank you!!

leanne, just wanted to say hi and good luck. I am an above the knee amputee, which i have lived with from the age of 16, i am now 37. My loss was through an accident involving motorcycle and car! It was lovely to see someone representing us who is so positive and full of life, Thank you for making this video, i have waited 20 years for this one, so cant wait to get exercising. Good luck with any treatment in the future and keep on doing what you do.!! it obviously works. regards sarah

I really enjoyed reading your book and I feel that I know your family and friends personally. As a proof reader I get to read all sorts of material and I think your book is very written, it flows well and keeps the reader`s attention - hence me finishing it is a day!

Well done Leanne, keep up the good work and I hope life is treating you well.

Bought the DVD, really enjoying doing all the exercises !!

Dear Leanne The Chair Workout DVD arrived this morning. Very impressed with speedy delivery and I've just had a quick look at it. Looks very good and I definitely need it.

After chemo for breast cancer and two years on tamoxifen I've become really very overweight and sluggish, but I can't face going to a gym, so I rather think your DVD is just what I need and very inspiring.

Hi Leanne just finished your book. Very moving indeed. My late Mum died from cervical Cancer when I was seven. Dad became alcoholic remarried and put me in care. Her sister died some years later due to a cancerous melanoma. I think your work has been inspirational and I am so glad so many people helped you get what you wanted. I hope you achieve many more things and that the tumour finally goes.

You have given me the inspiration I need

Best wishes, and well done again on such a fab video!

Dear Leanne I am just writing to say that I have finished reading your book, and it is without doubt one of the most inspirational books I have ever read. (And I read a lot of books!).

I hope that you make another DVD with more routines and loads of weight loss exercises as I have gotten fatter than Billy bunter since I have been permanently in my wheelchair.

good luck with your book sales and please e-mail me with any new products that you bring out.

You show that anyone can be fit what ever their disability you are a real inspiration.

Hi Leanne. I have just bought your DVD and I’m thrilled with it. At last, there is a fitness DVD that I can actually do! Thank you.

I bought your book yesterday and have finsihed it already! I went to bed early last night not feeling too well and read ...and read ... and eventually turned the light off at just before 11 – Amazing Read ! xx

Leanne, I have just read the article about you in the Mail and must say how inspiring it is, such a positive story.

I am also an amputee and I am staggered that no-one has had the idea to produce such an exercise dvd - there is certainly a gap in the market!

Hi - received DVD Tuesday only ordered Sunday. Tried it, just what I have been looking for !!

Hi Leanne! Well I am totally exhausted as the DVD arrived this morning! its great and you look like you all had so much fun making it! Thanks!
