Movimiento Por Su Vida, an original music CD promoting increased physical activity among Hispanic/Latinos, is a very popular NDEP product.  This tool has been use in innovative ways at communiy events such as Dia de la Mujer Latina, as a give-a-way incentive at worksite wellness programs, in training promotores de la salud on primary prevention, and as the background music for exercise classes. 

Step by Step appeals to African Americans, but just like Movimiento, everyone will enjoy the music and use it to promote physical activity.  Both the Movimento and Step by Step music CDs include a special bonus: new music videos showing real people incorporating more activity through music. 

Every Day is a New Begining is the lead song for Step by Step and shows African Americans walking, singing, playing with the kids and doing housework to the beat of the music.  The new Movimiento Por Su Vida music shows people at home, at work and at play moving to the music, and features a new dance step.  Both music and music video are available as a dual disc: CD on one side and DVD on the other.  In addition, the two short videos (approximately 3.5 minute long each) will be orffered on a VHS tape.
