10 Minute Solution: Pilates on the Ball
Herself
You’ll use a stability ball to enhance the effectiveness of each 10-minute segment: upper body, lower body, abs, total body and stretch. The ball becomes a fluid and natural part of every movement — boosting resistance, increasing range of motion or adding a balance element. Each non-stop segment includes a wide range of body-part-specific exercises (i.e. the abs section is totally abs-focused). Lara Hudson’s one-on-one teaching features smooth transitions and a quiet intensity. Note: The DVD is completely customizeable — you can program it to play the sections in any order. Requires a stability ball. ©2008

10 Minute Solution: Yoga
Herself
Five distinct 10-minute segments — each with a specific series of poses, each focused on a specific goal. It’s the ideal way to learn and experience different yoga approaches. Once you’ve found your favorites, you can customize the DVD to play the segments in your preferred sequence. You’ll begin with “basics” — simple breathing and sun salutations. Then it’s “buns and thighs” and “abs” — poses carefully chosen to target specific body areas. “Yoga burn” is a faster-paced series of flowing floor and standing routines. Finally, “flexibility,” emphasizes graceful, tension-releasing floor positions. Lara Hudson’s one-on-one teaching is friendly and easy to follow.
