Well paced and accurateJan 23, 2010 I especially like the pace of the intermediate section. There aren't long pauses between each exercise. Michelle's form and body is testament to her commitment and knowledge of Pilates.
Great for beginnersJan 20, 2010 I had done pilates before in classes and this covers most of that. About 30 minutes for the workout. I liked the advanced option too.
I must have done this wrongJan 17, 2010 I wanted to buy this, but rented from the library to try it out first. I did the easier/beginners workout. I thought the pace was great. She tells you at the beginning she will do it first to show you, and then you do it together. Once in a while it had little side video of what not to do to break form. As I worked out I thought "man, I'm going to be sore tomorrow". A couple of the exercises I couldn't even do (like laying on your stomach and lifting your legs and shoulders off the ground). However, with as hard and effective as I thought this video was when I was doing it, I did NOT wake up sore the next day. At all. I should have which tells me I was doing all of the moves wrong somehow. Something was missing in the video. Something that would have helped me have an effective workout. I am puzzled.
Thanks, Amazon!Nov 25, 2009 I got this DVD after realizing how difficult following instructions for workout routines are based on books. Gyms make me nervous, so I figured the DVD route was the best for me. After checking out some free Pilates workout videos on demand, I checked out the reviews for various DVDs and this one was very highly rated. I got it and I've been doing it a couple times a week for several months now. It's very easy to follow and definitely makes you feel better - i've also gotten some great compliments on my abs! The one thing i will say you need in addition to this DVD is a Pilates mat - not a yoga mat!
Pick this DVD up and start feeling good!

Love, love, love this workout!Oct 21, 2009 I first purchased Pilates for Dummies as a VHS several years ago & was able to lose those pesky last 10 pounds. Needless to say, I LOVE this workout!! I even have my friends and family hooked on this workout. In fact, I wore out the VHS & bought the DVD. It's really simple and easy to follow. Michelle explained every move and position perfectly. I definitely recommend this DVD to those who are intimidated by or found Windsor Pilates difficult.
