Pilates: Advanced

Summary: Incredibly effective
Review: I've been doing beginner and intermediate pilates programs for over a year, and had good results. This program is a huge leap ahead of all of them! It's like getting in your yoga, stretching, and meditation along with a butt-kicking strength workout. The best part is that once you've learned it, you have an entire awesome workout in your head, since no equipment is needed. It also feels just terrific on my back and is very relaxing. There are so many new exercises introduced from the intermediate programs that it becomes more of a full-body program. The instruction style is clear and easy to follow, though it really is not intended to be followed along in real time. It's better to watch carefully each exercise, taking notes if necessary, and do it on your own, especially since the instructor says at the beginning that while he is showing 4-5 reps, he recommends doing 10.

Summary: Aussie Pilates Advanced Floor Routine
Review: If you think you know how to perform your routines correctly - think again. This Aussie Pilates style of exercising is more specific in its cuing and performance than all other styles.
Its main focus in on the breathing -"The breathing makes the exercise!" By implimenting this deeply throughout the program you find a more aerobic type of workout - and a greater challenge all over, especially on the abdominals. This is a no-nonsense workout that uses the first two levels (Beginners and Intermediate) as a great basis for approaching this challenge.

The author of this series has been teaching Pilates for over 20 years and is the pioneer of the method in Australia. This different approach is safe and has new cuing you have never come across before. Enjoy it - its definitely worth it!
