This Pilates workout's subtitle, "Pick Your Spot," sums up its flexibility; the three 10-minute segments each tone the abdomen, rear, and thighs using Pilates-based exercises. Crammed into each segment are up to 10 exercises. "Belly" features the 100, criss-cross, twist, and mermaid; "Butt" includes swimming, double leg kicks, and leg circles; and "Thighs" offers the frog, front kicks, and leg lifts. While each segment is too brief to challenge veteran exercisers, viewers are free to hit the pause button and add reps. Plus, a 10-minute bonus total-body Pilates workout proves more demanding than the individual segments. L.A. Crunch instructor Ellen Barrett does an excellent job of initiating newbies to the regulated breathing and core muscle control needed for the exactness of this exercise system. However, visual clarity is somewhat hampered by a crowded set of eight exercisers when Barrett and one other person demonstrating the modifications would have been enough. --Kimberly Heinrichs

 I love it September 14, 2008
This tape is really good, and for me, a beginner at Pilates, this was really helpful. My daughter and I like doing the workout together.
 Short short September 7, 2008
Realy thrown the light on the hips, legs and bottom!.
Very short instructions but very good demonstrated.
Easy to accomplish!
3 Good Toning Workouts September 5, 2008
I like these 10 min. segments, because you can use them separately or all at once (depending on how you feel). If you don't feel they're challenging enough, use 1 segment more than once. It also includes a COMPLETE 10 min. workout, so if you only want to exercise to 1 or 2 segments the COMPLETE workout will take care of your entire body. Ellen is a good instructor and always reminds you to focus on your core and when to inhale & exhale (which is good because sometimes we tend to hold in our breath)
Energizes and strengthens August 16, 2008
I've practiced with different Pilates DVD's, and I thought this one was really good. I felt the exercises were challenging enough and effective, and I like that you can choose to work on certain target areas as opposed to doing the full 30-minute work-out. The 10-minute bonus segment is also a nice feature. It can be used by itself for a quick overall work-out or can be added on to the full work-out for times you prefer more exercise. Ellen has great energy and her style of instruction is clear, evenly paced, and easy to follow.
Awesome Toning! June 16, 2008

I love this workout! I really feel toned and tightened after the 30 minute session. Ellen works on the abs, butt, and thighs with awesome pilates moves. I found it invigorating as well as relaxing. I highly recommend
this video and any other video that Ellen makes.
