Challenging!
This is a great exercise video! It is a combination of yoga stretches and strength training. The beginning is mainly stretches and yoga poses and is great even for beginners. The video becomes much more challenging in the second half and provides a fun and challenging workout! Main focus is targeting and strengthening core muscles. Wonderful gift for new moms or anyone who enjoys yoga! Plus the instructor is calming and has the longest braids I’ve ever seen. 5 stars! Would recommend! Thanks!

Relaxing and Taxing
I agree with everyone else.I love this DVD. I did some yoga in my twenties, so I am little familiar with it. But I was totally unfamiliar with pilates.I am also no longer in my twenties, but overweight and out of shape. So I was looking for an exercise program that I could actually do and one without a lot of jerky/straining movements.The pace on this is good — I never feel rushed. It may, at first, even appear easy, but some of the poses/exercises are rather challenging. I am still working on doing all of them correctly, especially those in the second workout.There are two workouts. The first one uses bands and is mainly pilates. The second one incorporates more yoga and less band work — only a few of those exercises use bands. I have found I really enjoy using a band, it enables me to do some exercises I might not have been able to do otherwise and it also offers resistance. Resistance seems to speed up the toning process.Note that no bands are included, so I recommend the Gaiam bands.After using this dvd a month, I have found that I am standing straighter — it seems my back has more strength — and my stomach is flatter. I also feel more energized.You can’t ask for much more than that.

changed my body
I bought this DVD 6 years ago and have been practicing yogalates ever since. I am now 63 years old. I gave this DVD to my friend who is always commenting about how great I look and how toned I am. This DVD transformed my body and gave me my health back. I found this DVD at Walmart in a pile of other DVD’s. I had never seen it before. It was only $5.00. I broke my knee and had screws in my knee to keep it together. I had a terrible limp and my leg would not heal. My surgeon told me there was nothing I could do about the limp. Someone told me I should do Yoga and it would help. I started following this DVD everyday. After 7 months I had no limp. I had the surgeon take out the screws in my knee against his wishes. I no longer have a limp. My leg is strong. I still have problems with it occasionlly but it is only when I do not do my yogalates to keep my legs strong and lean.

Rejuvinating my back
I am 84 years old and politically active. One of my greatest joys is to knock on doors for candidates. In the past few years this has been impossible because I couldn’t walk on pavement for more than five minutes without my back really hurting.The physical therapist who was helping me gave me some yoga exercises which I dutifully did, but the biggest help came from Louise Solomon’s Yogalates which I discovered in my collection of DVDs. How provident!Within a short time I was able to get back on the political trail and furthermore walked two miles on a nature boardwalk a week ago.Note: I have been doing mainly workout 1 (I have bum shoulders) and must do that if I plan to do any walking outside.Because I found it so helpful I have been buying the DVD for my family and friends, hoping they will just try using it.Laurel Paster

I LOVE THIS WORKOUT
The combination of deep breathing along with stretches, repetitions, and resistance band training, I get a full hour of relaxing and toning workout. She promises that if I do it 3 times a week for 3 months I’ll “have the body I always wanted”. Well, I don’t think she meant 60 yr old post menopausal and overweight. But after a few months I am starting to feel nice muscle tone underneath. Balance, energy, and mood are much improved, especially doing it in the winter months where seasonal depression happens. I have two copies. One at home and another one at my sister’s out of state.

Louise Solomon’s Yoga & Pilates (AKA Yogalates)
I LOVE THIS DISC! This is a great one for people who are new to yoga or Pilates,or are not sure if they are going to be able to DO it…I had one, lost it, andwas thrilled to be able to find another one available to purchase on Amazon.comHonestly if you are over 40 (and I am WAY over!) You will see how she reallytakes you through the breathing, stretching and also at your OWN LEVEL..there are2 workouts on this disc I haven’t ever made it to the 2nd one as I am limited…but,the workout 1 is THAT good that I have never bored of it and it gives me a goodamount of exercise that does not hurt me. I think its a great starter or ‘senior’exercise disc.

TRUST ME IT WORKS!!!!!
I used this video about 2 years ago when I graduated from college. I had actually gained about 20-30 while I was in college, and, I have to tell you, I worked out to this video (just workout 1 for 30 minutes) and it seems like the weight just fell off. I had already lost about 15 when i started using it. I used this work out with the Special K diet and in about 2 weeks time I weighed less than I did when I graduated HS. I notice a significant change in the way my body looked. Since then, I have used it off and on for while, but now that I am getting married I will definately use it again!!!!

Not as great as it’s advertised…
This DVD is for ABSOLUTE beginners. It is VERY slow paced, and not much of a workout at all. I would buy this again only if I had never worked out 1 day in my life. The instruction is slow, and there is not much to the worlout besides talking. She says to do this DVD 3 times a week for “the body that you’ve always dreamed of” and that is JUST NOT TRUE.

The first workout is my favourite. I love this yogalates. I bought others but not for me. I have MD and the first workout done all on the floor is best for me. I also have other disabilites that make it best.

Easy to follow; gentle – not too strenuous but still effective. Terrific!

Je recommande ce disque à ceux qui veulent débuter ce type d’entraînement. Vraiment très bien pour une remise en forme après accouchement. Permet de raffermir le corps tout en douceur, sans tensions. Très bon pour soulager les mots de tête chroniques lorsque les exercices sont réalisés en respectant les principes présentés.

It is too bad, Ihad the up-dated version of her DVD already. So I was disappionted. I wish there was more information about the DVD before Purchase.I think she is great and am still interested in getting a different exercise DVD from her.
