Although the Classical Pilates Technique DVDs were not shot in an exotic location or on a luxurious set, these are the finest Pilates DVDs on the market.They exhibit the high standards of instruction required of all who were trained in the tradition of Romana Kryzanowska.I have read in other reviews that the instruction does not focus enough on the Breath and must offer my opinion.Joseph Pilates himself said: "Above all, learn to breathe properly."By that, Mr. Pilates meant to take full inhalations and complete exhalations.He believed in a deep lateral breath.My beginning students are always concerned with when to inhale and exhale and I tell them to be more concerned with how, not when, to breathe. The body will find its own natural pattern to assist in the movement.
In Ms. Ungaro's directions, I have found a new path to familiar routines and with my own students, I now use many of the powerful images that Mr. Liekens delivers throughout his voiceovers. Two of the DVDs in the collection include discussions, from which much additional information about the Pilates method can be learned.All in all, this collection of Pilates instruction remains unsurpassed.

Product Description:
Classical Pilates technique videos feature two of the most renowned Pilates professionals in the world, master instructor Bob Liekens and commentator Alycea Ungaro, who uphold the tradition and high ideals of Joseph Pilates original New York City Studio, which began during the 1920s.The professionalism, vision, and breadth of scope of this Classical Pilates video is in a rarefied class of its own. This 2-DVD set is expertly organized, fascinating to watch, and includes so many exercises that it's tempting to think of Classical Pilates' Studio Equipment Series as an artful encyclopedia that every Pilates training center, instructor, student, and enthusiast should own.
