 Darcey Bussell: Pilates for Life DVD January 31, 2007

Excellent! I highly reccomend this DVD. Darcey Bussell is a great example and inspiring teacher and the workout, even though disarmingly easy, is extremely effective! She is also very precise in her execution, which makes me confident that I am also learning it correctly. After 4 sessions, I can see and feel better tone and strength in my hips, pelvis, and abdomen. It's also helping my posture and balance. She has warm-up and warm-down sequences, and the choice of a 18 minute mini programme or the full 50 minute programme, which she recommends doing three times a week. After a day a the office, this DVD puts my body back together.

I have a bad record for keeping motivated with exercise dvds at home, however, this one has me hooked. I noticed results after a couple of sessions and having done the exercises at least 3x a week for the last few months it really is transforming my shape - there is nothing quite like results to keep you motivated! I find the whole dvd is calming, almost like meditation and Darcy does not talk throughout the exercises. Now I am familiar with the routine I find I can get completely absorbed by each exercise. I have also started to appreciate classical music, at first I found the music choice quite depressing, now I find it quite beautiful!
Excellent, would highly recommend! July 17, 2007

Before buying this DVD I tried someone else's Pilates DVD which didn't inspire me. Darcey's DVD has definitely got me exercising regularly and I have been doing it for over 10 weeks now. As suggested on this DVD beginners should do three one hour sessions a week. As well as including the Warm Up and Warm Down I also did the Mini Programme which takes about 15 minutes plus two of the sections from the Main Programme. In total, this routine takes approx 55-60 minutes. The exercises are clearly demonstrated and Darcey talks over the DVD, rather than talking whilst performing the exercises. After only three weeks my stomach was slightly flatter and my thighs were toning up. After 10 weeks I am doing the exercises with greater confidence and my waist and hips etc are definitely smaller. I now sometimes do the whole of the Main Programme which takes 1hr 25 minutes (including the Warm Up/Warm Down). A few of these exercises are quite challenging but are certainly achievable. I would highly recommend this DVD.
Excellent for beginners. Highly recommended! July 17, 2007

I was very pleased with the DVD. The instructions given by Darcey are clear and simple and all the moves are well shot allowing you to see exactly how you should be performing a particular exercise.
I suffer from a bad back which is a lot stronger and pain free since I have been doing this DVD. The full program is a lot more vigorous than you think but you will see results over time and feel as if you are progressing.
The mini programme is ideal if you can only spare a few minutes. Even doing the mini-programme you will see and feel the benefits.
You will also find that the moves relax you - the accompanying sound track also helps.
It's just a pity that there isn't a follow up as I am really pleased with this disk overall.
If you only get one beginners Pilates DVD get this one!
Really good workout! July 25, 2007

As an ex dancer myself I was a little dubious about this DVD but reading the reviews here I decided to give it a try. I have to say it is brilliant. The exercises are clearly explained and easy to follow, and there is plenty of time to follow all instructions. The mini workout is great if you only have 20 mins to spare. Highly recommended.
