Format:DVD
I highly reccomend this DVD. Liz Chandler is an inspiring teacher and the workout is extremely effective. She talks very clearly in a friendly manner and explains everything so you understand why you are doing it. Firstly she explains the principles behind Pilates then she goes on to lead you gently through a series of standing and mat exercises.

Although the DVD is aimed at over 50's it works equally well as an introduction for anyone. The clients she uses are older people and actual clients of hers rather than models and at the end there is a section where they are each interviewed and they give their thoughts on their physical background, how they got into Pilates and how it has benefited them.

easy to understand and follow December 22, 2008
Format:DVD
An excellent DVD which has helped me with back pain and created an awareness of the importance of deep breathing and maintaining correct posture. Liz provides a understandable explanation of the basics of Pilates. In addition, there is an excellent selection of floor and vertical exercises to observe and then follow. In following the clear and concise instructions that Liz gives for these exercises, I am more confident I am doing them correctly.

Watching Janet, Syliva & Derek, people in my age range, doing the exercise with such ease is very encouraging. I also found the interviews to be reassuring and enjoyable.

I have strengthen my core muscles which in turn helps the back pain and maintaining correct posture. The practice of deep breathing is helpful with pain, stress and provides an overall feeling of wellness. In addition to doing regular work sessions, doing deep breathing with a few exercises will alliviate pain experienced after sitting or standing for an extended time. Pilates & deep breathing has changed my life and I look forward to a sequel. Try it!
