User Ratings and Reviews
3 Stars Probably not the best out there but not the worst either
These are decent DVD’s except I don’t understand why each DVD doesn’t come with one session including instructional and motivational dialogue from Urla (this is what currently comprises the video) as well as a second session without all the dialogue, maybe with verbal ques on the next move. Urla has one of those nasal, feminine voices that isn’t necessarily soothing or nice to listen to during yoga or pilates, in fact it can be downright grating. After three times going through the workouts with Urla’s instruction I found myself clutching the remote and fast forwarding through his demos and chat. I find it so annoying that I’m searching for a new DVD set to work with.
4 Stars Loved it
This product is a great beginner’s video for yogalates. I highly recommend it, very easy to follow and a satisfying yoga practice.
4 Stars excellent
This product is great for anyone who is looking to get into working out but does not want to join a gym and who may not have the time to search out and join a pilates and/or yoga class.
4 Stars Yogilates 1 - Beginner Workout
This DVD provides an excellent workout. A comparable DVD is Louise Solomon’s Yoga & Pilates Total Body Toner (of Australia). My only gripe of these videos is that there is no indication of which moves are Pilates moves, Yoga moves or a combination of both. So, as far as breathing goes, it is always inhale or exhale ONLY. I have been taking Yogilates from an instructor who teaches the difference between Pilates and Yoga breathing techniques and when to use them.
5 Stars best exercise video that I own
This dvd is a very gentle way of working one’s hip joints.
I think that I have a little more flexibility in my hip because of the workout. This is the best exercise dvd/video that I have.
