rave for Janice Lennard Mat Pilates

dnna · 03-27-16, 12:10 PM

This is a full body pilates workout.
I learned about Janice Lennard in the Beachbody country dance thread, she is 73. If she colored her hair, you would think 40. amazing body. I ordered her dvd, Pilates , Barre and Yoga. They came in a sturdy box, and bubble wrapped, sealed dvds.
There is no senior talk, and this was not a watered-down beginner"senior" workout. any age pilates devotee will love this workout.
Some info:
beautiful brick studio, natural light
voice over
beautiful music
you work the entire 60 minutes
need props, small ball, band, stability ball, weights
all areas of the body worked
no chatter, soothing clear instruction, no real set up, flows from one exercise to another
lots of leg circles, yeah, my favorite
core seriously worked
standing arms with hand weights.
well, I loved it and cannot wait to do it again. and again. I will try to get the balletBarre and Yoga in and write my impressions. The balletbarre has live piano music about 15 dollars each, from her site, free shipping. She should be listed on Mary's site, I think people would love her workouts.

Looks very good! I wish she did downloads as shipping to Canada just makes it so pricey. And our low dollar adds even more $.

I just looked at the clips. Looks like it is right up my alley. Nice and slow and controlled.

Talk to her. She is very sweet. I LOVE her DVDs. She is so graceful and peaceful! You really don't have to label them in an age group either. I think the yoga would be quite challenging for a majority of mature exercisers. But i love that she doesn't label it or assume people can't move. Its hard to find mature workouts that don't sound like they are geared towards kindergardeners

I really liked the looks of these too. I sent her a message, asking how long each workout is and if they are pressed DVD's or DVD-r. But, Donna, you could probably tell me those things. Thanks in advance!

ETA - I noticed you said 60 minutes in your original post. Are all of them 60 minutes each?

I bit on the Pilates DVD - it looks great! I love Pilates workouts with toys, uh, I mean props. She's going to wonder why she is selling so many workouts on Easter Sunday.

Is this site secure for ordering?

Janice Lennard got back to me and said her DVD's are pressed (silver back) and the yoga and pilates are 60 minutes each and the ballet barre is 40 minutes. I'm ordering the 3-pack very soon!

She's doing everything right for a newbie.
