The Best for 20 min or Beginner Pilates
I'm a personal trainer and I think Denise Austin's videos are some of the best. She is always encouraging and she always smiles. This Yoga Plus has two 20 min. workouts: 1 yoga, and 1 more like Pilates. I actually only do the Pilates workout. I love this DVD because Denise keeps you moving, it's simple, and after 20 minutes, you have a great workout. Here is my list of BEST Pilates videos from easiet to MOST difficult:
1) Power Yoga Plus (Denise Austin)
2) Pilates Intermediate (Gaiam)-- steps it up a notch-- I'd still call it "beginner"
3) On the Ball Pilates Workout (Natural Journeys)--40 FUN minutes
4) Pilates for Every Body (by Denise)--quite challenging and you'll FEEL it, but it's easier after you catch the moves
5) Strong and Streamlined (Stott) This is the most advanced you can get. GO FOR IT!
Hope this helps!

Well worth every penny!
I purchased Denise Austin's Pilates DVD a few months ago, and I enjoyed it so much I decided to get Power Yoga Plus. Power Yoga Plus is a wonderful compliment to the Pilates DVD because there are more yoga moves in the first session, the second session's Pilates are more challenging, and there are bonus features that the Pilates DVD does not have. There is no redundancy between the two DVDs.

The music in Power Yoga Plus is very energizing. I think this would be a great morning work out... the set is a beautiful mix of oranges, reds and purples; very similar to a sunrise. As usual, Denise's voice is both soothing and motivating. I also enjoyed the addition of an arm workout with handweights to this DVD. The Pilates DVD incorporates a leg and buttocks workout. So, alternating the two DVDs is an excellent way to work the entire body.

Great whole body stretch
This DVD is divided into 2 segments. One on yoga (20 minutes) and one on pilates ( 20 minutes). Easy to do every day. Great overall stretching for the whole body. Great for your back! Many times I do this first thing in the morning and Denise Austin is very easy to listen to while you're still sleepy. After the workout - you feel invigorated. I planned on only doing this workout a few times a week but I like the way it stretches me and end up doing it every day. I'm looking for another of her workouts to try. I highly recommend this (no - I have NOT beeen paid to say that)!
