Jennifer Kries' Pilates Method: The Perfect Mix |
 Total Body Jennifer Kries |
| It has separate sections for toning, yoga, breathing, etc and you can plan all at once, too. It's a good one. - posted by Yoga Nut on 12/31/2011 |

| Jennifer Kries :The Perfect Mix; 3D Toning |
| It was a gift to my daughter and she is finding it very rewarding and helpful. In spite of a foot injury she finds that she can accomplish these workouts. - posted by Claire R on 11/28/2011 |

| Perfect Mix for Me |
| My job has me very busy, so I have been doing a quick workout before rushing to work at 6:30 a.m. These three segments are in my rotation of 20-minute workouts, and they are all a nice way to get my blood flowing in the morning. These help keep me toned and flexible. Jennifer Kries is a professional, and her cuing is nice and low-key. Sometimes I do all three segments on the weekend and feel stretched, toned and relaxed. - posted by Lilly on 11/14/2011 |

 a good, not perfect, mix |
| This is good Pilates and fairly good cario. Cueing is adequate throughout, and that cannot be said for all DVDs. I thought I was getting a mix of Pilates and cardio in one workout, but turns out they are in two separate sections. Oh well, still a nice mix for someone looking for a little of both. - posted by Sheryll on 7/14/2011 |

| Dance |
| This is a great video if you've had previous ballet experience. There is alot of choreography involved, not just the basic moves. But it does challenge you and her breathing exercises are helpful. The Pilates is fast-paced and provides a good workout. And the am/pm section is a nice eyeopener. - posted by Juanita on 10/12/2010 |

| Well done and effective |
| This is a very well designed program that gives a comprehensive full body work out. It's not as demanding as I hoped, but good for my lighter workout days. - posted by CJ on 8/30/2010 |

| So good |
| I finally got pilates after doing this video. I'm an advanced exerciser, but pilates eluded me. I'd been hacking away at it for years, yeah, yeah, navel to spine, inhale/exhale, use your powerhouse, like you're rolling over a big beach ball, keep your hips steady, no hulu dancing.. none of that really helped. Jennifer Kries is an excellent teacher. The first time I did the pilates routine I was able to do roll-ups, hundreds, and teasers with ease. Oh, the sound quality isn't great, but so? - posted by Rebecca on 8/5/2008 |

| great workout! |
| I've had this video for about two years and still use it regularly. It really makes me feel good afterward. Taller, stronger, leaner, just like the cover says! I really like the cardio section. I feel a burn and the steps are a challenge, yet I have no pain in my joints afterwards. Sometimes in the first and last segments Jen gets a bit long-winded, but if you are new to pilates, that can be a good thing. Better to over-explain than under. Plus, I just use the time during which she's explaining to do extra reps. I'd like more from her like this one. Her best! - posted by Jocelyn on 11/28/2005 |

| AHHhhhhhh. What a delight. |
| I'm sure I am not the only one who goes through workout "phases." This tape is NOT for the "hard core excersise blitz to whip myself into shape and push my fitness boundaries" phase. This IS for the "I want to move and feel like a graceful dancer while I work up a little sweat and sculpt my muscles into lean, finely tuned ballet shapes" phase. This is one of the only segmented DVDs I own where the different sections really do mix and match perfectly, and the "rejuvenation" section at the end is a luxuriously paced stretch with a focus on breathing and centering. Another thing I enjoy about this workout is that the more you master the moves, the more challenging the tape is. When you are able to do all of the excercises with perfect form, you will definitely get an excellent full body workout that improves posture and creates a lean figure. - posted by Shazam on 11/5/2003 |
