 One of the best out there July 28, 2008
This is one of my favorite pilates dvds. It has sooo many interesting and fun moves that you don't even feel like you are working out! I look forward to doing it regularly. The background is beautiful, Hilary's voice is soothing and the work out will kick your butt. You will get into positions that you haven't since elementary school. I feel more flexible than my 13 year old daughter! You will be amazed at your core strength. LOVE it! I would buy ANY new dvd that she comes out with...I trust her.
 Challenging and somehow relaxing November 28, 2007
I usually supplement it with another workout. It could be a little more vigorous, maybe more repetitions. The instructor is encouraging and calming.
love burnett workouts May 30, 2007
I really like this and other Burnett workouts. They are not easy, but don't wear you out either. I bought all three of her workouts and you can make them as easy or as hard as you want. I love them! I prefer these videos over the windsor pilates tapes. I really like that it is just me and Hilary working out together, I enjoy the personal attention and has great cueing. I recommend this and all Hilary's videos.
Definitely for advanced pilates students... January 1, 2006

...which I sure am not. This video was very challenging and fast paced but would be a great workout for those advanced at pilates. This workout is 20 plus minutes long and packs a lot of exercises in a short amount of time. You move from one exercise to the other very quickly. The exercises you will see in this routine are the hundred, rollup, rollover, single leg circles, rolling like a ball, single and double leg stretch, scissors, double leg lower lift, twist, spine stretch, open leg rocker, corkscrew, saw, swan dive, single and double leg kick, neck pull, scissors (advanced), bicycle, shoulder bridge, spine twist, jackknife, high bridge, side kick series, teasers, hip circles, swimming, leg pull front, leg pull, kneeling side kicks, sidebends, twist I & II, boomerang, seal, crab, rocking, control balance and pushups. There are few reps for each exercise and literally no rest or stopping in between.
I like Hilary as an instructor, here she instructs as a voiceover which I normally don't care for but it doesn't bother me here. I would think it would be pretty tough to call and cue the moves while doing them. She makes the moves look effortless too, I was impressed with her, plus I like her style.
This video is far too advanced for me, but would be a good choice for those who practice pilates that are looking for a challenge. Hilary's intermediate video is another good choice for those not quite ready for this one.

I'm new to the pilates game (1 year) and bought Hilary's Basic Pilates tape to start. At 35 years old and in fair shape (I had no workout routine previous to this but do a lot of running around "mommy stuff"), I was very happy to do some of the moves. I was also very pleased with Hilary's very easy instructions and beautiful backgrounds and after 2 months I jumped to her Advanced tape.
Although the flow of the tape was challenging at first, it moves very fast requiring some background knowledge of basic pilates or watching the tape several times, I kept at it. The first couple months I did the routine everyday until I memorized it. Now, after a year, I haven't tired of the tape because Hilary emphasizes quality with every move and I can challenge myself each time to do better. There's always room for improvement with these moves! Hilary is encouraging and the voice overs are clear and easy to understand. As with the first tape, the background is beautiful and relaxing with candles and gentle guitar sounds.
During the tape, along with Hilary's voice-over instruction, there are titles to let you know what pilates position you are starting. And at 20 minutes, you will do lots of them. Being a mother of 2, this was the perfect tape to squeeze into my day to get my figure back. And speaking of which, if you do this everyday you WILL see results!
