Perfect Pilates workout for me!September 16, 2008 Nancy Close(Greenwood Village, CO) 69 out of 69 found this review helpful
I'm a mother of 4, and this Pilates Weight Loss DVD is the perfect workout to do at home. It's really helping me tone my saggy "muffin-top" waist area, while giving me the total stretching and strengthening I need. The visual demonstrations are very clear, and the detailed verbal instructions give me all the coaching I need to work on improving my pilates technique. This DVD is excellent as it's so easy to follow and has plenty of variation to keep me working out for months to come! It's amazing how these Pilates techniques, that make me feel so good by stretching my whole body, can really create a great cardio burn too.
Absolutely LOVED it!September 30, 2008 Renee Allen(California) 50 out of 50 found this review helpful
I've been a fan of Brooke's for years -- I've done numerous Pilates dvds and have only been able to do Pilates with Brooke, thus far, with her books, flash cards, and CDs (in the Pilates Body Kit). I've loved her from the start and have been hoping for a dvd.
I did this one today and just loved it! Don't worry that it says it's for beginners if you've been doing Pilates for years. This is a solid Intermediate Pilates workout. It's approachable for Beginners, but isn't broken down slowly for explanations like most Beginner Pilates dvds. It flows wonderfully, is full of challenging exercises, and is a pleasure to do with Brooke. Just wonderful!
Perfect Pilates weight loss for beginnersOctober 19, 2008 Fran C. Heller(New York, New York) 27 out of 27 found this review helpful
I'm a fitness instructor who reviews numerous DVDs. I heartily recommend Brooke Silver's Pilates Weight Loss for Beginners to anyone looking for a cardio and mat workout that can create a slimmer, stronger and leaner bodyline. If Brooke's body is an example of what Pilates can do for you -especially after 2 babies -- then everyone should try her beginner Pilates dvd routines. I particularly love the way Brooke instructs you --she has an extraordinarly clear way of articulating the mechanics of each required movement and what you should be feeling in your own body as you go through each movement. This is fitness instruction at its superb best.
Great DVDSeptember 24, 2008 Tamara C. Shelton 27 out of 29 found this review helpful
This Pilates DVD is great! I am a beginner at Pilates and found this DVD easy to follow, yet challenging enough to get a great work out. The instructions were clear and every new move started slow and gradually got quicker. The diversity of stretches and head to toe movements kept me interested and concentrated. I felt a great stretching and lengthening as well as cardio work out throughout. I would definitely recommend this DVD.
The best for me....very clear...well roundedMarch 2, 2009 K. Irvine(near Bellevue, WA) 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
I am a beginner using Pilates. I had already used 2 other Pilate DVDs I'd purchased elsewhere and was enthusiastic about the method but wanted something that was alittle longer and well rounded. I read some of the other reviews. Brook's instructions are VERY clear and concise and she reminds you all the way through how to stay focused and how to do each stretch correctly which is so important. This is my favorite by far. It has been a good stress reliever and I'm amazed at how much flatter my abs are and how toned my legs have become in such a short time---about 8 weeks. I've got 25 lbs to drop and I'm 54 years young.
