Yes, they're the Les Mills series, and I find them worth getting up for (8:30am Saturday class sometimes), but my body clock wakes me up before 7am even on weekends unless I've been up really late.
They work for me because it's the exercises to music, with about 4-5 mins of reps, and I can adjust my weight to what I need.
Group classes are intimidating at first - the coordination aspect is a biggie for me, too - but I generally find that Pump is the class requiring the least co-ordination. The moves are simply the basic ones from freestyle weights, set to song, and timed over four beats of the music.
Ultimately, all the Les Mills classes require for "co-ordination" is familiarity. It's not that all the other people in the class are co-ordinated, it's that they've been doing this for a while and they know what to expect!
I'd say try it at least once a week for four weeks - you need to keep coming back to learn the moves and get the technique right - and see how it goes. (And start really light - because this isn't just a couple of sets of reps, but 5 minutes worth of them.)
