    Default Windsor Pilates

    Has anyone tried these before? I almost bought them off of an infomercial at 5am this morning!!! But just when I was about to give my credit card number I thought that I better check in with you guys first!!!

    Windsor Pilates is just the name of this particular DVD but I'm sure there are others. Can you recommend any to me? Thanks.

    I have the Winsor Pilates videos. It's a great workout, just be sure to take it slow in the beginning. I still can't do all the moves!! I try to do 20 minutes of Pilates 3 times a week, and I feel great afterwards.

    Good luck!

    I bought the same pilates off an infomercial a while back, the Windsor Pilates. I had no problem ordering and receiving them. Do them slowly until you work your way up. They really are a good workout!

    You girls are tempting me to buy off an infomercial!!!

    I'll look around at the stores a little before I purchase on line to see what I can find. I'll let you know what I come up with.

    I just got Winsor Pilates - I've only done it a few times, but I absolutely love it. Of course, other pilates videos may be just as good...

    Katie & I do Pilates (yes, the infomercial ones!!) and love them! There's still some moves that I don't think I could've pulled off when I was 8 but I'm trying!!

    They really are a good, "all-over-type" workout!

    Forgot to tell you to check out collagevideo.com, they have just about every video made, you can even watch a clip of the video to see what its like. Also, I've called the customer service number and asked what they recommend, I tell them what I'm looking for, my experience, etc. So far, they've been right on target!

    What a fabulous resource!! Thanks!!

    Daphne, I forgot to tell you about the BeachBody/Power 90 workout....I have these too! They're "thorough" - if you get my drift!! I don't know if the site that Gina mentioned have these, but it's a good "infomercial" workout set too!
