This is a short Pilates workout that thoroughly works out the lower body. Mari leads the workout with five exercisers actually doing the workout. Each exerciser sits on a raised platform and Mari stands among them. She leads them through exercises from the side kick series, some of them with her “twist”. The workout moves at a steady and deliberate pace and she does the same workout on one side and then the other.

I have used this work a lot. It is the perfect length to do as an add-on to another tape or to do as an additional workout in the evening (I’m a morning exerciser). It has a timeless feel that will hopefully carry me through the years.

Instructor Comments:
Mari is friendly and warm. She gives good form pointers throughout the workout. She also encourages me to keep going even when the exercises are burning.
