The Club Workout with Patsy Palmer (2000)
Selling over a quarter of a million copies, this dance workout video is one of the most successful of all time, staying at number one in the fitness charts for over three months in 2001.
It's filmed in a nightclub where Patsy and Niki strut their stuff on the stage to the sounds of get-up-and-dance chart music. The combination of Niki's encouragement of "Come on guys", and the irresistible music propels you along. The routines are fairly easy to follow, and none of the exercises are impossible or dangerous. There's a feel-good factor to the video. Viewers get the impression Patsy's genuinely enjoying it, and really having a good laugh.
Niki trained Patsy for three months prior to filming, choreographed all the routines, as well as working with the DJ, George D, to come up with the soundtrack.
