Easy to read and follow alongNovember 22, 2008 I ordered this book from an East Coast supplier thinking that that it would arrive sooner than if I had ordered it from a West Coast supplier. Such was not the case. I felt the seller was a little slow sending out the product. The book arrived in pretty good condition and I find it pretty easy to follow along. Having said this if you've never attemmpted pilates before it would be worth your time to take a couple of classes to make sure that you're doing the exercises correctly. This is mainly to help prevent injury.
Good To HaveOctober 3, 2008 I always enjoy having a reference book/guide for things I am doing and this one is a good one if you have any interest in doing Pilates.
The photos and descriptions are detailed and there is great information on the general principles of Pilates and how it was developed.
A very good book to have.
Worth a readSeptember 11, 2008 Good picture demonstrations and instructions. The tips are well worth the book if you are an instructor.
Outstanding Pilates book!June 30, 2008 As a beginner to the practice of Pilates, I found the Siler book indispensable--motivating, easy to use, geared to exercisers at all levels. A great buy.
The Best Pilates Book Out ThereApril 27, 2008 If you want to start a home Pilates program this book is the only one you should consider. It is well-written, with very detailed instructions and photos. I especially liked the bullet list of special tips included with each exercise and the categorization of the exercises into Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and Very Advanced.
