Description:
There's no fancy set, no drumbeats, and no modeling of the latest workout fashions in Pilates on the Go. It's just instructor Maria Leone, a mat, a band, and tubing--and 52 minutes of Pilates instruction. After a few minutes of explanation of the principles and goals of this German exercise system, Leone warms up and gets down to business with 100s, rollups, rowing, scissors, criss-cross--the works. She doesn't blend with yoga, dance, or Tai Chi; instead she takes viewers through most of the mat-based Pilates catalog (corkscrew, swan, seal, you name it), focusing on stretching the spine, breathing correctly, and using "core strength." (Translated: Get those abs in shape!) The camera work is inconsistent and thus noticeable when it shouldn't be, but otherwise this is about as straightforward and useful a Pilates instruction as you're likely to find. Some experience or at least determination to learn would be helpful. --Kimberly Heinrichs
