April 24, 1982, John.
That was when my first workout video hit the shelves, and honestly, I'm still in shock that those leg warmers and leotards caught on the way they did.

My first tape became the top-selling VHS in the country for years. We’re talking over 17 million copies sold worldwide across the series. But more than that, it sparked a movement — led by women, for women — to change the face of fitness forever.
It’s not every day a VHS tape turns 43. So I’m making this one count, and I want YOU to be part of the celebration, John. JanePAC is offering 20 lucky supporters the chance to win workout memorabilia signed by yours truly. We’re giving away treasures from my fitness vault, including:
💪 Original VHS fitness tapes
🕺 A vintage workout vinyl
💿 The 1978 Rolling Stone cover featuring me
and more surprises from the days of sweatbands and leotards!
All you need to do is make a contribution of any amount before midnight tomorrow, and you'll be automatically entered for a chance to win. Don't worry about shipping — we'll cover that!
Now, I may be 87, but don’t think for a second I’ve hung up my sneakers.
I still squeeze in a workout when I can. (I might not be doing high kicks, but I can definitely out-plank a few Senators.) And you can bet I still show up for this fight — the fight for our planet and a future where our communities can breathe clean air and drink clean water.
Just like those workout tapes made waves back then, this giveaway can help power progress right now. Every dollar raised will fuel JanePAC’s mission to elect bold climate leaders and take on greedy fossil fuel giants together.
So, if you've ever done one of my leg lifts, or even thought about doing one, now's your chance to own a piece of that history. This offer ends soon — be sure to get your name in the running by chipping in any amount now.
Jane
Xx
