I'm a Pilates Instructor I've been a fan of Jennifer Kries' Pilates video series for a long time. This master trainer series is just as excellent. Not only is she truly a master trainer but she seems like such a nice logical person. If I lived in New York I would absolutely train with her.

If you are a Pilates instructor or training to be one, this DVD is definitely worth the money. The video was shot while Jennifer was presenting to Pilates instructors on how to train a client on the reformer. In addition to verbal cues, Jennifer provides many good tactile cues to help your client move correctly and safely into the exercises. She also provides tips on how to keep yourself safe. She has a great presentation style and takes you through the entire classical reformer repertoire, beginning level through super-advanced. I was trained in STOTT PILATES, so it was nice to see the classical repertoire. This DVD has expanded my knowledge and teaching capabilities. You can pay much more money and attend a live workshop, but I think this DVD is just as good.

This DVD is perfect for someone interested in learning more of the details of pilates movements. Whether a pilates trainer or student looking to enhance your movements Jennifer Kries gives many helpful hints and explanations. She says in the beginning that this shouldn't replace a certification program, but this is a great place to start if you are interested in knowing more without paying $5000 for a certification course right away.

As the others have mentioned in their reviews, this is a great instructional dvd. I'm not an instructor but found it very informational with the detail on the various exercises at the beginner, intermediate, & advanced levels. In conjunction with taking classes and using my home reformer, this is a great tool to have. I highly recommend this dvd.
