Tastefully Done and Sexy at the Same Time, September 26, 2005
This review is from: Stripilates (DVD)
You never know what to expect from exercise videos these days. Will it be too easy, too hard, is the instructor easy to listen to, is the instruction suitable, and on and on. Stripilates is a perfect combination of Pilates fused with exotic dance moves. What's great about this workout is that Stripilates shows the move you'd see in the strip club first with on-screen text on what parts of the body the dance club move works, then the move is taken in to the world of Pilates and turned in to a workout. It's quite genius. The workout is really great as it's broken up in to 5 sections so you can choose what area you want to work on (Abs, legs, buns, everything). There is something for all stages of Pilates. They start off with breathing and some simple pelvic moves to get you warmed up. Then they progressively get more complex so by the end you are energized and are moving your body with the beat of the music. The other great thing about this video is that there are three music options so you can listen to the instructor with music in the background, listen to just the voice over so you can put on your own music, or you can listen to only the music if you know the routines. It's well done and looks really nice too. Overall Stripilates is done very tastefully and made me feel sexy, which is hard to do at the gym!

Loving It!!!!, September 28, 2005
This review is from: Stripilates (DVD)
I love this video. I'm pretty sure it's new to the exercise video market since I have only been seeing signs of it for the past month, but it definitely has an appeal. The main girl is really nice to watch and listen to. her voice above all elese is really soothing to hear so it's nice to workout to her instruction. Some of the exercises by the red headed girl were actually a challenge to do but I just skip and go on to the next routine which were much more appropriate for the novice. The world of stripping/strippers is now in the mainstream whether you like it or not. When the porn star Jenna Jameson is on a Time Square billboard....I'll leave it at that. Cool video. Looks really great and the girls are sexy without being slutty. Thumbs up Stripilates! Whatta name!!!

This is a basic pilates DVD!, March 25, 2007
This review is from: Stripilates (DVD)
This tape is basically a basic pilates workout DVD. I thought it was going to teach some sensual moves and I was tad bit disappointed. However the DVD did provide a decent workout.
