Joanna Rohrback, the founder of 'Prancercise,' seems to have the stars in her favor right now. Her video, depicting the unique exercise, which was released last year in December, seems to have gone viral in just a week, with a total of two million views and still counting.
Prancercise’s official website describes the exercise as a springy, rhythmic way of moving forward, similar to a horse's gait and ideally induced by elation. The video, which garnered many hits and drew enthusiastic responses on YouTube, has Joanna Rohrback, dressed in pink and white, and imitating the galloping and trotting moves of horses, catching everyone’s attention.

Exercise is about revamping your lifestyle, not just weight loss. Exercise to get healthy – that way, you’ll last longer at it and get better results.

Developed in the late 1980s, Prancercise seems to have made a thunderous re-entry into the world of healthy living. The exercise video, which includes a ‘Prancercise trot’ which involves alternating arm movements, a ‘Prancercise gallop’ involving a springy jaunt with a wider swing of arms and a ‘Prancercise box,’ which involves ankle weights to be moved to the arms, used for punching the air, has the founder demonstrating the moves herself.
While the video seems to have become popular, it’s the exercise in particular, that adds to the sheen. Where yoga burns around 2.92 calories per minute, Prancercise burns a whopping 4.2 calories per minute on an average.
