 A Good SweatSep 05, 2010
I was always really athletic during high school and did yoga quite often, I wanted a work out that wasnt going to kill me but that would also tone me up and maybe shed a few pounds. This workout is Amazing! It flows very nicely and gets you sweating pretty quickly, I do is so often I have it memorized. Tracey explains everything well and gives you reminders at the right time to make sure you are doing the exercise properly. I gained some weight a while ago and remembered I bought this (for really cheap compared to other dvds) and since I have been dieting and doing this on a regular basis I have lost weight, so much that other people have even noticed! Overall, a good workout that is for people that want to stick with it, the first time may be a little hard, but it gets easier! It is worth a try for the amount of money!
 Use it or loose itJun 24, 2010
Between trying to loose weight and turning 60 and wanting to keep flexible...a friend introduced me to this and I got one for myself. Use it every other day and feel that it does not only work up a sweat but it also works hips, knees, arms, etc. So it works for me!!!
very nicely done workout - have used it for yearsMay 20, 2010
I have had this workout for a few years and continue to use it. I used it after the birth of each of children to ease myself back into exercise. This workout is also good for beginners or people who have been out of the exercise loop for a while as it is easy enough to tackle but you still feel like you got a good workout. If you are a regular exerciser this won't be a huge challenge for you, however, because the workout is so nicely done, it is still worth using on a light day or, as I do, at night to supplement your morning exercise - to burn some extra calories, get in some extra toning - especially abs and legs - and it will leave you feeling more refreshed unlike a more intense workout that can leave you feeling wired at night.

 tailbone agonyMay 13, 2010
It could be that all pilates would cause this type of pain if you have a history of a cracked tailbone, but I was very dissappointed that 95% of this tape you spend on you tailbone. I tried it once and never again!
Pilates for DummiesApr 10, 2010
I am a school teacher and my students and staff just love exercising to this video. It is very basic but gets the heart moving. It also offers modifications for people who may not have the balance or range of motion to complete the original exercise. Tracey has a positive and energizing way of working with people watching her video. A great way to have indoor PE or recess when it's raining.
