Can it really be twenty years? Please say no. It seems like just yesterday I finally retired my last pair of High Top Reebok Freestyle Aerobics shoes. Next thing I’ll be talking to Gin Miller all about the beginning of Step Aerobics…. Hey,  that’s not a bad idea… maybe I should look into getting her on the show

UPDATE: Here is the interview I did with Gin Miller. http://www.groupfitnessradio.com/fitness-presenters/episode-9-gin-miller-and-twenty-20-years-of-step-aerobics/


Did you know that there is an online encyclopedia that’s all about shoes? I didn’t, but found this site looking for the pictures I use in this post.


From http://solepedia.com/Reebok_Freestyle


The company surged in popularity in 1982 when Reebok introduced the Reebok Freestyle athletic shoe. The shoe ,an oxfordstyle sneaker specially designed for women, was an instant success with the current aerobic dance craze in full swing. Reebok and Reebok shoes became the hot brand for aerobic buffs everywhere and the Freestyle has been hailed as Reebok’s most successful athletic shoes of all time. But the success of the freestyle was not entirely due to its athletic uses. It also became the icon of the 80’s fashion world used for casual wear because of its comfort and sleek style. A high top version was released (identified by the two velcro straps around the ankle collar) and additional colors were released, including white, black, red, yellow, and blue. The Freestyle continue to be produced. The 80’s were Reebok’s decade of success.
