Yay! Prancercise Is Back: Gallop Your Way To Ecstasy With A Partner [Video]
From the archive: published Aug 12, 2014, 12 years ago. Details may have changed since.
If you have always wondered if you could Prancercise with a partner, wonder no more. Your question is answered with the long awaited release of Prancercise queen Joanna Rohrback’s new video.
HLN TV reports that the galloping workout diva has even upped her production budget for the newest installment of her joyous workout, shooting the sweeping scenes with a drone.
In statement accompanying the YouTube release of her new video, Joanna commented, “This video goes a step beyond my original video ‘ Official Prancercise: A Fitness Workout’ exploring the potential of getting fit along with a preferred partner; in a preferred environment; and even alongside preferred animals. A feeling of liberation from the boring and overbearing typical fitness scene (usually even lacking in self-expression), can be experienced right here in ‘Official Prancercise®Fitness with Passion.’ Free your mind from the usual grind!”
Rohrback pranced her way to internet fame when she released her first Prancercise video, which Inquisitr reported went viral and spawned a rash of tributes and parodies.
Twitter fans were delighted by the release on the second Prancercise video:
The #prancercise woman has returned! Frolicking with a man in some questionable unsupportive spandex http://t.co/4cCa1vTa7k #yourewelcome

Joanna introduces the video by saying, “Hello, it’s me, Joanna Rohrback of Prancercise LLC. Now that Prancercise is in fashion, why not explore your passion? Have a partner take part and develop some fitness straight from the heart.” She then proceeds to delight by prancing her way through a meadow, accompanied by an unidentified man clad in zebra-print tights and high-top sneakers prancing their way to ecstasy. The pair is joined in the idyllic setting by horses, who are supposed to be Prancercising along with them, but in reality just appear to be a bit startled of the Spandex-clad humans bouncing around and flapping their arms. Rohrback’s partner seems to get a bit carried away with his self-expressive galloping, and looks pretty pranced out by the end.
For die-hard fans, there is even a director’s cut of the new video available on the Prancercise website. Rohrback says it features “behind the scenes production of my video, including my vision of it, along with bloopers and even Prancercise tips.”
One has to wonder, what does a Prancercise blooper look like? And who IS that mysterious zebra-clad man?
