Pilates At Home: Can a DVD Get The Job Done?
"Even though Pilates is becoming as
ubiquitous as the treadmill in fitness circles, that doesn't mean the
method is being practiced as it was intended. Google
"Pilates" and you'll find a dizzying array of videos, mats
and other equipment. Private instruction is not an inexpensive
pursuit. The question is ... can you find quality Pilates
instruction on a DVD?"

Classical Pilates Technique - The Complete Mat Workout Series
"Pilates purists will rejoice at the dramatic traditional presentation of mat exercises in this video. The demonstrators perform each exercise with clean, strong movements, seamlessly flowing into the next with diligent aplomb. They make it look easy....
Fortunately, if it's not so easy for you, and your Rolling Like
a Ball looks more like Wobbling Like an Egg, you can start off with
the modified basic routine. As your proficiency improves, move on to
the video's more challenging levels, which go all the way up to super
advanced; the precise, rhythmic motions at this level are amazing to
watch. Unlike many Pilates videos, this one has men demonstrating some
of the exercises - great for guys who are curious about Pilates. Bottom
Line: An authentic, efficient presentation
of Joseph Pilates' original method, and a great workout."

Grab a Magic Circle and a mat and take these recent video releases for a test drive"
"Ramp up the intensity with The Complete Magic Circle Mat Series, which
rigidly adheres to the tenets of the classical Pilates method. Though the DVD
offers something for all skill levels, the quick pace assumes a basic knowledge
of techniques and terms. (The name of each exercise and number of reps is helpfully
shown on-screen for reference.) Take you choice of beginner, intermediate or
advanced segments, all of which incorporate the Circle into common exercises
like the Hundred and Leg Circles. Added bonus: viewers can take advantage of
the 'super advanced' Reformer Mat Workout."
