Review

This is another wonderful Denise Austin workout. I began doing this Pilates DVD over four years ago and still do it. When I do this DVD three times per week, I can really see a difference in the length and tone of my body. My posture is better. I just look overall lean and fit. It is always...

Pilates for Advanced Everybodies

I tried this Pilates tape that is supposedly for everybody. Denise is as full of sunshine as she alwasy ever. It gets irritating fast when you realize that you can't begin to do half the stuff she is talking about. I have done Pilates before so I know that Denise is doing advanced positions that...

Great book

Hi out there. I bought this book because it offered what I was looking for. I am not the type to buy an exercise book either. In particular I liked the drawing of the muscle per exercise. I like knowing what it is I am working on. As for equipment: bands, ball, weights ... those are used in...

good for a book

I am a beginner yoga student. I wanted to try pilates as well, because I like the idea of toning my body, using my body. I bought this particular book by Denise Austin and I felt like it was very informative. However, I think it would be best if I learn from the book, but purchase a pilates...

Photo instructions are bad

I have been doing intermediate Pilates for about 18 months now. I saw this book in a store and was curious about it, so I picked it up and started flipping through it. I was shocked to see that in each photo, Denise has her head turned, grinning at the camera instead of actually putting her head...

Fantastic Photos Make Exercises Easy to Follow...

I'm an intermediate Pilates student, and I enjoyed this book. It might be hard for a beginner to learn the moves solely from a book--any book--but the instructions are fairly clear.I like that she gives instructions for a basic and more advanced workout, plus special short workouts for abs,...

Good book, a little hard to get the moves down though

I really liked this book and read the whole thing and found that the advice Denise gives is reall helpful. The only problem I had is that the moved are really hard to try to learn from a picture in a book. I am a beginner at Pilates and I found that it took some practice to try to get the moves...
