5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended, 7 Nov 2006

By	Dr. Portnoy (North Wales) - See all my reviews

I tried it out together for the first time with my 10 year old daughter. We both found it fun and surprisingly challenging, and although I do yoga regularly, I woke up the next day just slighly sore. The format is very friendly: Each excercise is demonstrated at 3 different levels, which was extremely useful when we sometimes had to admit we need to go down a level. The explanations are very clear, and the teacher (is that how they should be called on a DVD?) has a very natural style that is very pleasant. The demonstrators are surprisingly human-looking, seem to really be working hard, and even sweat. And lastly, the relaxation was lovely, and my daughter even managed to fall asleep. Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant CD, 7 Feb 2007

By	Mahri Clark (Manchester) - See all my reviews

This CD really works for me. It's practical, well presented and gives you a choice of level to work at (Especially good on bad hair days!). You can see the movements from different angles which is very useful, so you can be sure you are doing the moves corectly. The pace is great - not too fast, not too slow and Lindsey really manages to pass on her real enthusiasm as well as her skill. I like the fact that the "models" are real people. It feels like you are part of a regular class, so you get really involved. I really recommend it whatever standard you're at.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for beginners., 3 Feb 2009

By	Bookworm. (Battle England) - See all my reviews

If you are just starting Pilates or are already familliar with the basics this is a brilliant DVD for use at home.

The presenter is friendly and very clear with her instructions. I follow this enjoyably nearly every day. It keeps me toned without being so taxing that I feel sore the following day.

I can reccommend this DVD to anyone regardless of age. I am nearly 70 and am sure without Pilates I would end up quite immobile.

Have just used the dvd once, found some parts very boring and the warm up seemed to go on forever. The dvd seemed to last forever and so I have not had the time to watch it again.
