Moira Stott, former professional ballet dancer and certified instructor of Joseph H. Pilates' techniques, introduces a variety of challenging movements and routines in this program. After Stott reviews the proper breathing techniques and reminds students of how they should align their bodies, she demonstrates several of the most basic Pilates exercises. Students at the advanced beginner or early intermediate stages of abdominal exercise training are likely to gain the most from this video. ~ Elizabeth Smith, Rovi
