5.0 out of 5 stars Challenging, July 5, 2006

By	TBM Devotee (Lovely East Coast) - See all my reviews

Just wanted to first point out to Nancy Ng that Callan Pinckney and Burr Leonard (The Bar Method) were students of Lotte Berk way back in the day in England. Lotte Burk designed these workouts and she is also credited with having the first exercise set to music so SHE is the imitated one. But imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Both Callan and Burr modified the original and made it their own, just as the South Africans and Australians have done with Callanetics.

I think Super Callanetics is extremely challenging. I also think the Lotte Berk DVDs are challenging. The Bonus Blasts are most like a studio class so if you do the 1/2 hour workout plus the Bonus Blasts, you'll get an effective workout.

With Callanetics and SC, you will get very fast results (amazingly so) because the exercises do work and because of the sheer number of repetitions per body part/per exercise. How could they NOT work?

I think a good mix of all three methods will round out your fitness regime and if you really want to work very hard, Super Callanetics and those mighty reps will get you into tiptop bikini shape. I know, I know. A lot of exercise DVDs will make this same claim but these ladies put their money where their mouths are and they pack a serious body burning whallop.

It isn't for you if you don't want to work and you think a few spins around the room 5 days a week will change your body. As Lotte Berk said, if the exercise is too hard, you'll injure yourself. If it's too easy, you won't resculpt your body.

These exercises DO reside in that sweet spot.

I think if you're ready to work, you will be shocked at the results you will achieve. You've nothing to lose but a flabby body. ;)

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST legs, stomach, butt workout EVER!!, July 21, 2006

By	K. PLANT "Lifelong Exerciser" (Clearwater, FL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Recommend: START WITH THE BEGINNER!
I have been doing SuperCallanetics for over 20 years, and I am 54. People guess my age in the late 30's early 40's. In my 20's I had no butt. It was flat and had no muscle tone. Callanetics "gave" me the body I always wanted. As with everything, it takes dedication. The great thing about Callanetics is that once I got to the "Super" stage, I never got bored or reached a "peak" (even after many years). You refine the movements, and your muscles work harder.
The best thing about Callanetics is that I can go to ANY Pilates or Yoga class and perform advanced level movements easily. The combination of ballet, core strengthening, pelvic strengthening and stretches for flexibility are really amazing and innovative. I have NEVER done any other type of exercise movements that tone and strengthen the legs and butt like the ones she has created. I could go on and on........

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Workout Ever!, April 27, 2005

By	mommyofmax "maxine's mommy" (Rehoboth Beach, DE) - See all my reviews

I'd done Callanetics 15 years ago but abandoned the routine about 5 or 6 years ago due to lifestyle changes (moving, becoming a mother, getting back into the work force, etc.) You know, all the excuses that can be found. Well I decided to buy the DVD and give it a fresh start and all I can say is WOW! I am so glad I'm recommitting to Callanetics. I've tried Pilates, The Bar Method, Lotte Burke, and nothing comes close. If you seriously want to change your body Callanetics will do it.
