Laurie Chen –
I really like this book. They did a great job illustrating the pictures in an easy to read and understand way the color coordinated muscle groups is very appealing. The information is pretty generic but well done and delivered in a very useful, practical, elegant manner. I would recommend this.

The author made Pilates more accessible to people who need exercise modifications. It is a safe way to stay flexible and save our muscles from atrophy. Her book makes it less likely to misunderstand instructions and hurt yourself. I highly recommend this book.
Cliente Amazon –
Manca sempre il perché di tutti i programmi ed è la chiave però diventerebbe una serie infinita di volumi di spessore importante ⦠quindi opuscolo basico sintetico immagini ben fatte e chiare ma poche come anche la teoria. Però lâho sfogliato con interesse ⦠in pratica è quello che troverà un utente nel sito della scrittrice pilates Anytime ⦠movimento si, ma poco informativo e quindi uguale a una palestra qualsiasi.

A well written and researched book, which I keep referring to and recommending to clients who want to gain a better understanding of the background, foundations and “Science of Pilates”
