5.0 out of 5 stars A great, quick workout for busy people, November 17, 2008

This review is from: Pilates For Everyday (DVD)

This is one of the few pilates workouts that I can physically feel after 20 minutes. Other workouts are slow and tedious while this one is fast paced. Melinda doesn't waste time with explanations and transitions. It's true that the studio and production is pretty bland, but the workout is so great with variety from head to toe that I can overlook this. I don't even watch anymore...I know what to do from listening. In my 15 years of doing workout videos (which normally bore me to death) this is the only one I've stuck with enough to do regularly. I am now purchasing the DVD because my VHS copy has finally gone bad.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor Quality!!!, May 18, 2004

This review is from: Pilates For Everyday (DVD)

The only thing good about this DVD is that it is classical Pilates technique. The DVD is very poorly produced. The performer, Melinda Bryan herself, is clad in all black outfit which it made it very difficult to see her body. She was the only performer in the DVD which does not allow one to see how the exercises could look on another body. The studio is poorly lit and the camera never changes angles so that the viewer can see the exercise from a different angle. In addition, the verbal cues felt rushed and no modifications were given for any of the exercises on the DVD (Level II if you are familiar with classical or NY Style).

There are much more better produced videos out there to supplement mat classes when one is unable to take class or a private session. I would recommend looking into Romana's Pilates or the Bob Liekens set. Don't waste your money or time with this one.
