I would have given this dvd 5 stars but for 2 reasons. 1. The warmup isa little on the long side and 2. it doesnt flow. I'm used to doing Jennifer Kries Method dvd's. Her way of teaching has a certain flow to it. Although Moira has a gentle way of teaching, in some sections you go from laying on your back to all fours to back on the back to on the stomach without any sense of connection between the moves. This dvd doesnt have that flowing feel to it. The workout is hard though. Its definately a good one. It's not for beginners either. This workout is also a bit rushed. Not in a bad way though. I get the sense that I'm there to workout and go about my day, whereas some other dvds take too much time in between exercises to explain the pose. This dvd assumes you already know the reason behind the pose and takes you right through. Dont expect too much down time on this one. Enjoy!
