Movie Reviews of Element: Slim & Tone Pilates
Movie Review: Lives Up to the Title Slim and Tone
Summary: 5 Stars
I prefer pilates routines that work the entire body. Many pilates routines don't seem to do much for the arms (beyond the occasional pilates plank). I think this routine effectively hits all the muscles, and definately devotes more than the average amount of time to the arms. Of course, being a Pilates routine, it focuses the most exercises on the core. Some sample moves are the One Hundred, leg circles, Pilates planks, Teasers, and a six step series of flowing arm movements. It doesn't say beginner in the title for a reason - I think it is more for those familiar with pilates already. The instructor tells you the names of the moves as she does them, but doesn't say much else. I appreciate this approach, so I can focus on form and breathing. I do this aproximately 35 minute routine on a regular basis, and feel it stretches me out.
Summary of Element: Slim & Tone Pilates
Pilates is ideal for creating strong healthy bodies that are slim, flexible, and lean. Filmed on a beautiful location overlooking the Pacific Ocean, this dynamic workout includes both standard mat exercises and apparatus mat exercises. The apparatus exercises, which are usually done in a Pilates studio on a reformer, enhance the routine and give you a taste of the studio experience in your own home?without purchasing any expensive equipment. This specially designed combination of the two types of Pilates provides you with a very complete workout that will slim, tone, and firm your whole body.About the Instructor: Kara Wily has taught the Pilates method for over 15 years. Formerly a professional dancer, Kara was trained as a teacher by Joseph Pilates? own protégée, Romana Kryzanowska. Pilates changed Kara?s body and her life. She went on to direct the Pilates Program at the Performing Arts School in Vienna. Now, as owner of the Kara Wily Pilates Studio (www.karawilypilates.com ) in Los Angeles, her list of clientele includes famed actors, television personalities, models, and producers.
