#Does what it says on the tin (2008-11-17) I have never done pilates before and having read other reviews decided to purchase this dvd hoping for a good introduction to a pilates workout. And this is exactly what you ll get. If, like me, you re not a big fan of complicated dance routines done by a bunch of people in garish outfits whose ideal bodies clearly have nothing to do with the exercise performed, you re gonna love this dvd. The exercises are shown in a slow and clear way by a friendly instructor - they are easy to follow even if you re doing it for the first time and effect...
#Very good workout from a beginners point of view (2008-10-24) I bought this DVD because my physiotherapist suggested that pilates would be good for my lower back problem. Never having done pilates before and being one of these people who struggle with co-ordination and always turn in the wrong direction in the fitness class, I wanted an easy to follow routine and clear instructions. And this DVD delivers exactly that (and if I loose a few pounds on the way, even better). Having done aerobic and legs, bums & tums classes in the past, I recognised some exercises but in this DVD th...
#Nice and easy to follow (2008-10-09) I bought this DVD, as I was looking for something to tone me up, and strengthen my stomach. I have followed Pilates exercises before, from a book about 10 years ago, so being very unfit, and inflexible now, I would class myself as a beginner. I watched the DVD this monday, and have completed it twice, with a day off in between, and I am very impressed. The rate at which you workout is steady, and everything is well instructed in a clear, easy to follow manner. All the moves are easy to follow. The first 20 minutes is a standing workout, and the ...
#good for beginners (2008-09-22) I had never done pilates before and bought this along with the 10 Minute work out Pilates DVD. I do a lot of sport and wanted to try something different that I could do in the house. The DVD was great but (and not trying to sound big headed) it was really easy. I watched it and followed it once and wont use it again. I think it would be great for people who do not do much exercise but for people who are quite fit/flexible, you may find this a bit basic. Dont get me wrong, it is a great DVD and I would recommend it for complete beginners. Ev...
#Wow workout (2008-08-17) This is the first pilates video I bought. The workout was a total body workout. The pace was just right and instructions were given clearly. I then bought the Lynne Robinson The Pilates Body and I hated it because I strained a side of my body. Now I only use this DVD. Recommend it to anyone who is a beginner and wants to tone and feel great on the inside. Tracey Thompson is an excellent instructor.

#Love it (2008-09-22) I am a beginner to Pilates and because of a lower back/hip problem, I had to ease off yoga and find an alternative and this has certainly worked for me. I ve been practising this dvd for 2 months now and have noticed a marked difference in my torso - it is toned and stronger. The pace is slow but effective. I like the way you can work at Darcey s pace and never break out in a sweat! The music is calming and really quietens the mind. Having the exercises in sections is a good idea as you can focus on areas you want to if you re pushed for time. The style i...
#Bliss! (2008-08-25) As someone who has dabbled with various exercise DVDs and videos over the years and never stuck with them, I can t express enough how refreshingly different this one is. No thumping music or graphics, no flashy sets and most importantly an instructor who doesn t feel the need to talk or shout in a motivational fashion all the way through it. Darcey is elegant and calm and explains everything simply and concisely. I was a complete beginner to Pilates when I bought this DVD, and a few reviewers have expressed the opinion that it is not suitable for beginners and...
#Fabulous Body Work Out (2008-08-04) Great work out. Very easy to follow and well paced for beginners. Your body gets stretched but not battered. You feel great doing the warm up, the full program and then the warm down. Would love to see a new video by Ms Bussell taking you to the next stage. Lovely music.
#Worth the effort (2008-07-31) I have various back problems typical of a desk worker. After attending a series of pilates classes run by the physiotherapist that I attend I decided it would be more convenient to exercise in my own home. I chose this DVD based on previous customer reviews and would highly recommend it. Don t be put off by Darcey Bussell being slim, elegant and very, very flexible, this DVD is at the right speed and level for anyone who wants to take up pilates in privacy without looking like an inept idiot in a class! Darcey is a good teacher and the pace is just ...
#Best exercise DVD I ve used (2008-07-29) I bought this DVD because of some of the reviews on Amazon and I m really glad I did. Since I ve been doing it 2-3 times a week I have noticed a big difference in my posture, I sleep better, and there is a glimmer of the muscles I had as a teenager 15 years ago! I haven t lost any weight yet, but my fat percentage has dropped and my jeans fit better. The long work out is good for days when you aren t in a hurry and its easy to fit in the mini-workout a few work days a week. As for the music being dreary - if you don t like classical music I c...

#So glad I bought it! (2008-11-22) This dvd is fantastic. I have about 7 or 8 fitness dvds sat on the shelf that have been used once and never seen the light of day since, but this one is great. I dont have very good coordination and usually flap around like a fish on dry land when doing exercise dvds, but this one is really eay to get into, there were parts i got a bit stuck with but im sure once ive done it afew times it will be fine. its set out in 4 parts so it seems to go really quick, you also get told how many songs each section will have so it makes it easier to stick it out,...
#Looking for a Ministry of Sound fitness DVD? LOOK NO FURTHER! (2008-11-13) Pump It Up The Ultimate Workout does exactly what it says on the box. Fantastic choreography to awesome club tracks, and Deanne Berry as the instructor has trained as a professional fitness instructor - and you can tell. Her moves are simple to follow - I only missed a few beats on the very first go - and she always encourages you to keep going and go with your options, both higher and lower intensity workouts are clearly demonstrated either side of Deanne. The Ultimate Workout has 5 sections and runs for abo...
#Awesome Workout (2008-10-17) This is an awesome exercise DVD, I have only had it a week and now my right forearm has increased from 8 diameter to over 12 diameter - 5 minutes is how long my workouts usually last and my heart is pounding after the first 30 seconds of so - fantastic stuff.
#Experience and practice required.... (2008-10-07) I have never done a Ministry of Sound DVD before so perhaps I was expecting something different but overall I was a bit disappointed - I enjoyed the warm-up and the Aeroburn but found the Dance section (and to a certain extent the Boxing as well) very difficult to follow. I thought that with a lot of previous dance experience that I wouldn t struggle too much, but the routines are frustratingly complex and only briefly explained - several attempts and major concentration required. If you are looking for something that you can just...
#Wow! :) (2008-09-18) Deanne Berry is back! Yay! I ve been doing these exercise routines about five times a week and I notice the difference because I lost so much weight. . when I tried on my favourite jeans on, my legs and waist are getting thin. Yay!I love the Beatbox section. . it blows my away also I enjoy doing Aeroburn section for Friday if I m not going out clubbing or something I just love to keep it up and do Aeroburn on Fridays. lolThe cool down is so peaceful as well. Last time when I start this fitness DVD I was thinking that who doing the easy routine. . . and I caught ...

#Great work out (2008-10-29) I love it. I can see the results already and I have only been doing it for 2 weeks. A very goog work out for beginners. I recomend it.
#Brilliant DVD to help with starting to get fit again . . . (2008-10-01) I love this DVD. Its easy to fit in the 10 minute workouts and to mix and match as you feel like. She explains really well how to do everything and keeps reminding you throughout the particular exercise what to do. I am definitely fitter, feel great and am more toned. No annoying chatting either - just clear instructions and encouragement!
#Glad I got this... (2008-09-06) I was looking for a work out that was flexible enough to fit into the ever changing time I had available each day (sometimes 20 mins, sometimes and hour, etc), with variety that worked on all the usual problem areas. The reviews were good, so I ordered it. . . I m very happy I did. It has four sections that work on different areas (thighs, arms, buns and abs), with an additional power stretch section. All last 10mins which seems to fly by, you aren t jumping about like a lunatic meaning you aren t out of breath and can keep up, and they are very ef...
#New to at home fitness (2008-08-16) I usually go the gym for class sessions but want to make the most of my time not having to travel. I bought two other 10 Minute solutions DVDs and I am very impressed. I ve used them as a whole hour work out and as the ten min specific area training and found them very easy to follow and understand. I would highly recommend 10 minute solutions to anyone wanting to train at home.
#Good! (2008-08-07) This is Brilliantly easy and so simple to fit into the day, I wake up 10-20 minute early and do mine in the morning, the time flies by and so far I ve not bored or tired of it. The only thing is after doing it for 2 weeks I would like to have seen my muscle tone improve, but I m holding out for the month marker before I make my decision

#Lots of fun (2008-11-14) After watching Erin and Karen on Strictly come Dancing I instantly wanted to buy this workout dvd. After using it a couple of times I really loved it. The steps can be difficult, so you will need to do it a couple of times each week to make sure you improve. Apart from that I thought it was good value for money, and if you want to feel a burn in your legs and arms after using it, then this is the one for you.
#Hard Work But Great Fun! (2008-11-03) I love work out DVDs with a dance element. The first time I tried it I was quite frustrated, but with perceverance I am now able to do the workout steps 95% of the time. There are some complicated steps but if you keep working on them they get easier. I like all the different dances, the quickstep and jive are definitely the most high impact, but the feeling of accomplishment at the end makes it all worthwhile. I think if you like dancing and are willing to invest some time, this is a great choice. I found spending a little time on the instruc...
#Strictly Come Dancersize (2008-10-09) I totally agree with all the reviews that say stick with it. This is a fun dvd to get fit to. I do this with a friend twice a week and we have both toned up and feel much better for it. After watching through a couple of times, we decided to stick to one dance over and over first, then added the others one by one as we mastered the moves. It took us about 6 weeks to master all of them but the sequence seems to have been done to warm up with the cha cha cha being the least aerobic, the quick step and jive in the middle give you a really good...
#The most enjoyable workout DVD.... (2008-10-07) . . . . it really is, especially if you are a fan of SCD. I have been using this as a core part of my workout regime since January this year and I have lost four stone (with calorie counting too). One of the key factors in this weight loss programme is that I have been enjoying the exercise, and therefore I am motivated to continue. This really is the most fun - it works you, but you are dancing so you are learning moves to impress your friends at parties etc. I had never learned any kind of dancing EVER, and I find Karen and Erin s tu...
#Great to watch, impossible to do!!!! (2008-08-11) Despite having 15 years Latin training behind me (albeit 20 years ago!!),and being really quite fit still, I found this DVD impossible to finish. Even though I could pick up the steps very easily as they sprang back into my memory, the routines themselves were SO complex, that I found each one impossible to finish. The routines were like complete dance routines for the show, but each one twice as long. There is no doubt you will burn fat, if you manage to get through any of them without having a heart attack. Consequently, it can...
