Summary: stability ball workout
Comment: This dvd really surprised me! I am not used to the balance ball workouts, thinking they would not be that effective. Silly me! This is a great workout, challenging for me as a beginner. Easy to follow and it flowed smoothly. The reason I only gave it 4 stars is because I did have an achy back after, but I have 2 herniated disks, and just need to keep doing it to build up my core (hence the reason for this particular workout!)I would recommend it to anyone though.

Summary: Having A Ball
Comment: I am really enjoying this DVD to add some different ways of working with Pilates in my exercises. I have working alot on my abs with this DVD and feel the results, love that part alot. As a relatively new person to Pilates and working my way up there were many things I could do on this DVD as a beginner. If you like Pilates and want to add some extras (such as a ball) that will further strengthen you, Lizbeth will help.

Summary: Great Ab Workout
Comment: I am kind of new to the pilates thing, but the few videos I have done, I have loved. This one was no exception. It was so much fun that when it was over, I was left thinking, "is that it"? Hah. Although I consider myself to be fit with good ab strength, it has been two days and I am still sore. I do agree with other reviewers that said this workout is something to build up to. You probably won't master it on the first try.

Summary: I learned a lot
Comment: This DVD can teach you dozens of things to do on an exercise ball that you never thought possible. The title says for "beginners" but I found it to be pretty intermediate myself.
Overall I love using this workout video...it concentrates on your core muscles but definitely is no cardio workout. I find myself skipping the first part because she goes entirely too slow at first. Be prepared to mute the video and/or listen to music after the first time watching...she is really annoying and says "inhale, exhale" probably 300 times. She's good though!

Summary: A fun challenge
Comment: This video combined two forms of exercise I love. The stability ball and pilates. The routine takes pilates off the floor and challenges your core muscles to remain stable on the ball. I fell off my ball the first five tries. The moves look simple, but require focus and strength to execute. I'm a huge fan. This is the video that redeemed by Core Secrets ball (Don't bother with Core Secrets. Their exercises can be found on any library ball workout video.)
