A light Pilates workout for the lower body,
This review is from: Pilates: Lower Body Workout (DVD)
If you are relatively new to Pilates and looking for a lower body workout that is not too challenging, this video might be for you. Prior to the workout, instructor Jillian Hessel spends a few minutes introducing Pilates and going through a brief reivew of posture principles. The workout begins with some nice foot a leg stretches while lying on your back. You then perform some of the tradition Pilates mat exercises, doing only those that focus mainly on the legs such as leg circles and bicycle. There also are some more unique moves such as opening and closing the legs in a stradle position. Next comes the Pilates side kick series, including exercises that focus on both the outer and the inner thighs; there are also a few movements performed lying face down to work the back of the legs. The workout ends with a short standing balance segment, coming in at just under 29 minutes. This workout wasn't very challenging, but if you enjoyed the thighs segment from Crunch Pick Your Spot Pilates, you will probably enjoy this video as well.

A very light work out,

I agree with the review that only gave it one star. It is pretty light for a 25 minutes workout DVD. If you are new to Pilates, you should pick a real Pilates entry level DVD such as Pilates for Dummies. If you are not new to Pilates, you would find this DVD to be too easy and not a complete work out. I would recommend the videos made by Anna Caban (Pilates Intermediate Mat Workout). I give it two stars because I use this video as a supplement to my workout routines from time to time.

For the true beginner only,
By Geena (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pilates: Lower Body Workout (DVD)
What a waste of my money! This is only good for the complete out of shape beginner, but the video does not tell you this. The pictures on the cover show exercises that are not even in the video. I kept going back to the menu to see if I were missing the actual work-out. The "work-out" was no more than a review of how to do a few exercises, and no more than a warm-up. The cover says "flatten abs" even though there are no ab exercises. If you have never exercised and want to start very easy this is for you. Everyone else should shop around. This was my first pilates video, but will now be the last one I get from Gaiam.
