2.0 out of 5 stars Same stuff, June 11, 2007

This review is from: STOTT PILATES: Core Challenge (DVD)

This DVD begins in exactly the same way as all other Stott tapes, with way too much time taken up with "slow breathing." Breathing is NOT a warm-up. Most exercise physiologists know this. And to be honest, these exercises are on other Stott tapes.

Stott likes to take one workout and stretch it between all their Pilates tapes. Though, admittedly, all the tapes are beautifully done, and the best of the batch of exercise options in terms of clarity and explanation, if you get one of their PILATES BASICS DVDS, or ESSENTIAL MATWORK DVDS, you more or less have it all.

Ball workouts and exercise band workouts, excluded, of course. Although many of those workouts use the same exercises, adding the toys, as well.

Still ----- I recommend the basics workouts Stott does above all the others I've viewed.

This review is from: STOTT PILATES: Core Challenge (DVD)

I've been doing Pilates at home (and in a gym) for 7 years. This workout offers the best I've seen. I rotate my Pilates' DVD's but I choose this one at least twice a week. It begins with excellent breathing, stretching, AND positioning your body. The workout is excellent. It's as good as an hour at the gym. Although I've done it more than 100 times, it remains challenging. This is because 'form' is so important, and there is always room for improvement with your form. My abs are so much stronger, and I give credit to this DVD. For a really short, intense quickie workout, I strongly recommend Classical Pilates.

This review is from: STOTT PILATES: Core Challenge (DVD)

I teach pilates/yoga (3 or so years) so I am always looking for a more challenging workout video. First of all, the title says level 2 but the DVD says level 3. The workout is very dry, dull, and UNCHALLENGING!!!!!!! It should be a beginners workout and can be done by clildren it is so unbelieveable easy. I am sorry that I wasted my money to purchase this. ALL the Stott DVDs are to the same dull format (2 people working out while one woman with a monatone voice rambles on and on about the exercise). Please DO NOT purchase this if you want a workout.
