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.

This DVD is superb for people like me who are just starting to explore Pilates. The instructor really educates one about Pilates and Pilates language. It is so helpful because the correct form is continuously shown throughout the entire workout. Also the tips are wonderful and the incorrect form is shown when exercising. All in all this is a great and manageable workout for Pilates Newbies.

I bought this dvd after doing the pilates weightloss workout for dummies for a couple weeks. I was told by my doctor that this is great exercise for folk with bad backs. I absolutely love the other pilates dummy DVD and its brilliant for the first timer. This is also under the beginners group of pilates. I have tried it 2 times now and I find it Very, Very difficult to do and rushed. The instructor although very competent, I don't think has really thought through the routine. It is all mat based and she does go into correct positioning. But you find yourself going onto your tummy then onto your back then onto your tummy again. I found some of the exercises incredibly hard from a strength point of view and although they give a basic feature of the same exercise - I tried them and still found it really hard. I would suggest if anyone is interested in this DVD they should at least have done pilates for a good while. I shall carry on doing it but I don't think its anywhere near as good as the Pilates weightloss workout for dummies. If you are a true beginner then I would really recommend this DVD to start with.... please see my review of this DVD.
I've been doing this workout for about three weeks now and it really works! I am a bigger girl and I don't have any trouble following the instruction or doing the moves. I work out 3 times a week doing cardio and weight training at the gym, but my abdomen never "bounced back" after I had my son three years ago, and what I was doing at the gym didn't seem to help. A trainer suggested I try some Pilates as she had had a lot of postpartum moms say it was the only thing that helped their stomach tighten back up. After just a few times with this I am seeing more tightness in my waist and some really nice muscles emerging in my hips and thighs. The pace is good and the instructor, Michelle, is personable and very clear with her instructions. I am almost ready to move to the Intermediate workout to get a little more of a challenge. If you want to try Pilates but can't afford (or are too intimidated to go to) a class, try this. I think it is a great workout and a nice way to learn Pilates on a budget, in the comfort of your own home.

I absolutely love this DVD and use it regularly. I honestly see a huge difference in my posture and my abs. The instructor explains very really well without doing too much talking. I would recommend this to everyone.

I bought this DVD a long time ago...in the first days/months I ever did pilates (or rather, when I knew what I was doing was pilates.). This dvd is amazing. I did it for months and months, switching between the 2 workouts. I learned so much from the instructor Michelle that it made me want to do more and know more.
I am a pilates instructor now and I will always remember this dvd as one of the first materials to really break it down for me in a simple way. Plus...everyone kept saying to me, "hey did you lose weight?" And the funny thing is that I didn't, my waist just looked smaller, I was carrying myself better, breathing better, and just felt great!
Run to order this dvd now. It will get you headed down the right path!
