Yoga Tune Up Corgeous ball similar to Barre3 ball?

yogapam · 11-03-15, 03:09 PM

A question for those who have used both, are the Corgeous ball and the Barre3 ball similar? Would the Barre3 ball work with the Corgeous DVD?
TIA!

TIA!

Aside from being colored differently, they are absolutely identical.

Can you use something other than these two balls? I have the Coregeous dvd, but only have a playground ball. Not really looking to buy a bunch of expensive equipment for one dvd.

This one looks similar to both Barre3 and Coregeous balls:

I'm afraid that you can't use a playground ball with Jill's DVD. The ball has to have soft and sticky surface.

The Corgegeous and Barre3 ball have a tacky texture and they squish more than a playground ball. Maybe if you deflate the playground ball a bit it will work. If not, you can get cheap generic versions on Amazon. Places like Walmart might even carry them.

Thanks! Would I just look for Pilates ball in WalMart or something? I'm looking on amazon and all these balls look the same.

If you mean something like this: Probody Pilates Mini Ball, I think it is different from the Coregeous/Barre3/Fitball (and also a little different from a playground ball). The Pilates ball shown in that link is firm as if it was a tiny stability ball. the Coregeous/Barre3/Fitball is squishy/gooshy by design. But if you can find it at Wal-Mart, it would probably be in the same section as a Pilates ball.

The Coregeous ball is squishier. I don't think any other type would suffice.
