5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Beginners., June 25, 2004

By 

Georgia A. (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Balance Ball for Beginners (2006) (DVD)

What I like about this workout is that it is not "intense." Expect to work and stretch every muscle. But, don't expect to sweat. The workout feels easy, but then the next morning, you feel sore. The instructions are terrific. The setting is perfect. The workout is easy to learn and follow. It is a splendid mix of pilates, yoga, and balance ball.

This is a beginner DVD. If you are in pretty good shape, I would not recommend this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars A complement to the other Suzanne Deason ball videos, November 29, 2004

This review is from: Balance Ball for Beginners (2006) (DVD)

I was reluctant to buy this DVD because I already have the other balance ball videos of Suzanne Deason's. But I'm glad that I bought it. Balance Ball for Beginners has different movements in it and there were almost no repeat exercises from her previous videos. The DVD also has chapters which not all exercise DVD's have, so you can do one or two segments at a time. A practical purchase for a beginner as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent basic balance ball workout, August 26, 2005

Of all the balance ball videos I have seen, this one is the best. Suzanne Deason's voice is wonderful and she describes the moves so well that you do not have to watch the screen while working out. The pace is not too fast, nor too slow. The best part of the DVD is in special features, which gives a 15 minute basic workout sequence that can be done quickly at any time during the day and leaves you feeling refreshed. The regular workout then can be done when you have more time. I highly recommend this DVD to use with your balance ball, and I prefer Ms. Deason's voice to all others.
