Fans of the tv show could also purchase spin-off workouts via VHS.  Unlike the understated studio at the Green Valley Health Spa, the sets for the home videos were a jollification of everything questionable about decorating in the 90’s.

Cast members from the photo above, left to right: Joey Greco, Tracy York, Pepper Von, Donna Richardson, Jeff Vandiver, Nancy Popp.  Not pictured, but a frequent instructor on the show was Tamilee Webb.
