Summary: Great! Great! Great!!
Comment: I start to do pilates from the day I got this DVD. I liked music, I liked the speed, although some movement I couldn't catch up at beginning, but weeks by weeks, my body got stronger and slender, and it turn into such a fun thing to do it!
10 minutes each settion, 10 minutes for each area, I saw result in 2 week in my ab and waist line(where most of women want to work on!)The most import result is, my lower back pain which bothered me for 4 years had gone since then!!!
PS, I am considered a slim girl always and love sports. So, not so sure whether this DVD is the right choice for the VERY beginners. ;)

Summary: Nice but not for beginners...
Comment: I think Lara is a fantastic instructor and the workouts are really fluid with a lot of different moves so you don't get bored. I just wish there were more pointers for beginners or people who are not that flexible. I consider myself fairly athletic but some of the poses are just downright impossible for me to do (e.g. the teaser). Lara is so incredibly flexible, so watching her move through the poses with such grace only frustrates you while you're struggling to achieve only a fraction of what she can do. I know these workouts are supposed to be quick so she can't spend a lot of time giving instructions, but maybe they can have another person beside her doing modified moves? All in all, this is a pretty nice video and I just hope someday I can be as flexible as her.

Summary: Perfect for postpardum
Comment: I had a baby about 3 months ago and wanted to lose the baby weight. I use this every day. It's perfect for going around the baby's schedual and the work outs really work! They are challenging at first, which I really liked because as I improved I was really proud that I could accomplish more and more. It works out muscles in my body that I never knew I had.

Summary: Strengthen your back!
Comment: This is the first pilates video I ever used. My daughter had an assignment to exercise using pilates three to four times a week for one month. To understand the assignment, I tried out this video. After only a few days of abs workouts, I found my tired back was much stronger. I could stand taller, sit more comfortably, and found myself not thinking about how to avoid back pain. I wish I had started this years ago. I find I am not tense doing this video, and this is attributed to Lara's voice and style. She calmly explains every move in detail and gives you some alternate modifications when needed. She encourages you to push to the last rep without hounding you. I purchased a couple more pilates videos for variety, but this one remains my favorite.
