Certified instructor description:
Classic Pilates blended with dance, yoga and strength-training to maximize results. Each 10-minute segment uses both standing and matwork to target a specific body area: arms, abs, buns/thighs, total body and a stretch (you can program the DVD to play any segment in any order). Designed for exercisers already familiar with basic Pilates, the workout features a faster-than-usual tempo and a higher-than-usual intensity. Suzanne Bowen's cuing is also non-beginner-focused; she emphasizes the body-position and movement subtleties often overlooked in an introductory program. Requires 1 to 3 lb. dumbbells. ©2008.
