Title: Interesting But Not Great
Review: I bought this video set to have a record of traditional Pilates, and because the old film footage of Romana is good to see. By and large, though, this "4 volume gift set" is not the best gift.I've studied the Pilates method through both Peak Pilates and Stott Pilates training programs. Since I heard about Romana, I thought I would give this video set a try. The costumes were good, the lighting and sets were good. The demonstrators were accomplished, but something special was missing, that sparkle that Romana is known for revealing in her best students. But I didn't see enough of Romana teaching. Some person---who didn't seem to know Pilates very well---did the voiceover instruction.Since I by a lot of Pilates videos to learn new exercises, and to learn from different traditions within the Pilates method, I recommend "Pilates for Dummies" for beginners and "Classical Pilates" from beginner to advanced levels.
