It was VERY difficult to rate this item as it fell into two halves: the DK book was excellent. It was simply written and motivational, describing the aims and techniques of pilates in a way that you wanted to get on and give it your best. As advised, I read through the entire book first and thought, 'This is for me!!' ( I am in the early stages of learning). Then I put on the CD and watched before trying, again as advised. Misery! - the routine shown was a demonstration of the highest level, non-stop movement which could only be achieved by someone who had practised and mastered Pilates after many years. For such a person, this may be an ideal daily workout, but they certainly would not need the book. There was no teaching or explanation. Totally mismatched, very disappointing.
My mum bought me one of these books and I was so happy with it that I bought it for my mother-in-law as a present!!! It is great with the DVD as you are workng out non stop which gives you no time to let your muscles relax!! It takes a few workouts to be able to get it perfect but that is just life! It takes time to learn to touch type, it takes time to get an outfit perfect... you learn something new every day! Well done! It is an excellent book & DVD!
Brilliant book, easy to follow and use. Yous really can see results after just a few uses!If you dont have a dvd player there is clear step by step images to follow!
