Movie ReviewsVery good, varied routines Janet Knori | Eugene, OR USA | 05/25/2009 (4 out of 5 stars) "This one DVD has 5 different workouts on it. I already had a couple of them, but it's handy to have them all together. They are all well done and motivating. It is a beginner-level production, but gets into some kind of energetic movement, and it might be best to sit and watch the whole thing first, before actually doing the workouts - you can eat ice cream while watching, you'll burn it off after you start faithfully doing Pilates every day. I'm an old lady, and I do it! The ladies are attractive and make you feel you can achieve what they have by following along. To a great extent, it's true. You just have to become a Pilates addict, which is not too hard." Correct Workout Sequence sanmarzano | 02/15/2010 (3 out of 5 stars) "I contacted Gaiam about the mysterious disconnect between the order of the 5 workouts on the back cover vs. the actual order on the DVD. Following is the correct sequence: 1) AM Pilates with Jillian Hessel 2) PM Pilates with Ana Caban 3) Pilates for Weight Loss Maintenance with Ana Caban 4) Cardio Pilates with Ana Caban 5) Easy Pilates with Ana Caban " I am becoming reaquainted with Pilates... Trish | CA | 09/02/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "and this DVD is a great place to start. Each routine lasts between 15-30 minutes and offers a variety of different exercises and levels of difficulty. The beginner work-out (15 minutes) is just that. It starts out with modified positions and a shorter range of motion for most of the workout. It is all mat work and a good place to start. The 2nd-4th workouts are all around 30 minutes and are mostly mat work for intermediate to advanced exercisers. The AM Pilates (4th) is different in that is starts with a series of jumps (scissor jumps, hops, jacks) etc., which I thought was too high of an intensisty before even warming up. The Cardio Pilates (3rd)is my favorite. It is all mat work with traditional (The Hundred, Double Leg Lifts, The Teasers, Side Leg Series etc) pilates moves. I can feel this one afterwards. The 5th workout PM Pilates is a lower intesity level that would be appropriate for beginners. The back cover says that it is 27 minutes long, but it is actually about 15 minutes long. I like the face that, if I have time, I can use this DVD for an all-over hour long workout, or if I'm short on time, a quick 15 minute workout. Overall, this is a good place to start and you will grow with this DVD." FABULOUS PikakeFlower | 10/09/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "I love pilates and find this mix fantastic- you can choose a workout you like- morning or pm. The cardio one is great as are the others. You get a great work out in 25-30 minutes. Highly recommend this. Have tried other pilates videos, but this really stands out, if you enjoy pilates, and are home wishing you were doing a pilates class- this will fit the bill and really make you happy you ordered it."
