Pain-Free Posture: Back Care Level 2 Pilates

Moira Stott Merrithew
Year Released: 2002

Categories: Pilates/Core Strength , Special Health Conditions


This DVD is a remake of the original Ultimate Back Care, and is now classified as Level 2 in the Back Care series. The back care series DVDs aren't intended to be thorough Pilates workouts--they are for rehabilitation and very gentle strengthening. I find this DVD to be an excellent back care program. Moira starts off with a warmup (it's not "just talking"--it explains the principles while keeping you moving) and moves in a progression--this is precisely what is needed for a "problem" back. One thing I wish had been carried over from the original Ultimate Back care is taking the time to talk about safely transitioning between exercises, but the new program keeps things moving more quickly.

Instructor Comments:
Knowledgable and meticulous. Great attention to form and helping correct/prevent problems.
