DVD Reviews of Jennifer Kries: New Body Pilates - Beginners Mat WorkoutDVD Review: Vendor excellent, DVD is very basic Summary: 5 StarsThe vendor is excellent, shipped promptly, product was as advertised. The DVD itself is definitley for someone who has NEVER done pilates before = it does an excellent job showing proper form of basic moves - but that's all -- it also has a segment that shows how to use (and has a basic workout) for the "Magic Circle" -- so if you don't have a magic circle -- this section is wasted.
DVD Review: Love Kries Pilates Summary: 5 Stars Have done Jennifer Kries Pilates workouts for years. Started out 10 years ago with the VHS tapes. Over all the workout is VERY tough in the beginning... you will be so sore if not already doing a toning workout. And takes alittle time to get down the pilates and basic ballet toning moves. But Kries is so worth the time to learn and work through sore muscles. I'm never in such good shape if using on weekly basic and if I slide alittle, tone back very quickly. My all time favorite workout is her Pilates,"The Method". With it made in 90's... outfits some what dated! But look past that, the over all workout is still better than most pilates I have found.
DVD Review: The basics of building core strength and great flexibility Summary: 5 StarsNEW BODY! PILATES BEGINNER MAT WORKOUT covers the basics of building core strength and great flexibility for better posture and appeal, and can be done in 35-minute instructions.
DVD Review: Beginner Pilates Workout Summary: 5 StarsIf you are looking for a workout that makes you feel taller and leaner then Jennifer Kries has a lot to offer. In "New Body Pilates" the Goddess of Pilates guides you through two workouts. While this is for beginners there are still some challenges for intermediates. In the first workout you may recognize these classic exercises:
Roll-Ups
Leg Circles
Rolling like a Ball
Double Leg Stretch
Bridge
Spine Stretch Forward
Side Series
Bent Leg Teaser
Seal
Jennifer Kries' nurturing teaching style keeps you focused while you feel like you are exercising with a personal trainer. Most of the exercises have modifications so you never feel that you have to push your body further than it will let you go.
In the second workout, the creative use of a magic circle (looks like a steering wheel) gives your thighs an excellent workout. When you stand up after this workout you can literally feel the results. Both workouts give you better posture and help you to slim, tone and sculpt your entire body.

DVD Review: New Body! Pilates, thank you! Summary: 5 StarsWhatever Jennifer is teaching, I want to learn it! Her confidence, her depth of knowledge (of anatomy, energy and Pilates itself), her experience and encouragement shine through every exercise and every explanation. I've never been able to say this about an instructor on a fitness dvd, but it is an honor to call her my teacher. That I trust her so completely has enabled me (right from the start) to begin to trust my own body in a way that I never have before Jennifer Kries: New Body Pilates - Beginners Mat Workout and that has allowed me to make unbelievable progress.
"Class" begins with proper breathing techniques and the fundamentals of Pilates. Jennifer's "students" demonstrate correct (as well as incorrect) poses, advanced beginner as well as basic beginner, and although I am more of an intermediate Pilates practioner, Jennifer's meticulous cueing sometimes "catches" me doing something incorrectly and underscores the importance in Pilates (and everything in life) of getting the fundamentals right. Her manner of teaching is so personal, so natural and assured that although she is teaching by way of a dvd, somehow I feel as if she is speaking directly to me.
You can see by their spontaneous smiles that Jennifer's "students" admire her and are also having fun. Her teaching has the same effect on me! (I think if she could see me she would be genuinely pleased.)
I'm new to the innocent-looking Magic Circle and I can honestly say that it gives me the fastest (10 or so minutes) and most complete upper and lower body workout I've ever experienced. Jennifer calls it a "handy-dandy" tool and considering that I feel as if I am going to die while I am using it, (only kidding!) I believe she is correct.
The New Body! Pilates DVD itself is movie quality. Sometimes I actually find myself watching and listening when I should be doing the Hundred or the Seal. I'm happily going to purchase Jennifer Kries: Hot Body Cool Mind - Level 1 and any other workouts Jennifer Kries has done while I anxiously await her intermediate New Body! Pilates and Level 2. Thank you, Jennifer.
