5.0 out of 5 stars Great workout..., August 30, 2002

This review is from: Denise Austin: Pilates for Every Body [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I am not a beginner, and I really like to get to it when it comes to a exercise video. This is just a great total body workout. The exercises flow very well, and move very quickly. It's very easy to follow, but if you don't get things the first time, you'll catch on. You will definitely need a long resistance band for this tape; one you can put both feet on and comfortably stand up straight with your hands over your heads. She does not offer alternate exercises, and if you try to mimic what she does w/o the bands, you won't get the full workout. I even broke out a little sweat!
Time-wise, this video is great. It is about 45-minutes long, and perfect to squeeze in at lunchtime.
I also think that Denise Austin is very personable and enjoy her workout! This was my first Denise Austin experience, and I want to try others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous Ab Workout!, September 8, 2002

This review is from: Denise Austin: Pilates for Every Body [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I love Denise Austin's Pilates For Every Body. I used to take Ballet classes when I was younger, and stopped for almost ten years. I am now 23 years old and have started Ballet again. I had heard that Pilates exercises can really improve dance technique. This workout has really improved my balance, my posture, my flexibility, and has toned and strengthened my abs and thighs. My ballet has really improved and I have recommended this video to my other classmates. This is a great video with realistic moves and Denise Austin is very enthusiastic and motivating.

5.0 out of 5 stars Denise does it again!, June 6, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Denise Austin: Pilates for Every Body [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have to admit that I enjoy Denise Austin's videos and Daily Workouts on Lifetime Television. This video is typical Denise. She is very "bubbly" and energetic. I'll admit that she does talk alot, but she is always motivational and encouraging. You feel like she is right there with you pushing you to try harder. Although some of the Pilates movements are not beginner level, Denise does guide you through the moves with great visual cues (ie, feel like a string is pulling your head to the ceiling). This truly is a total body workout. She spends 18 minutes concentrating on the abs alone, another 7 minutes on standing leg exercises (similar to ballet moves at a barre), and 7 more minutes using the resistance band for upper and lower body exercises. Denise begins with a full warm-up and ends with a great stretch. I have seen results quickly and actually feel like I am an inch taller after doing this video. She has done it again!
