Pilates DVDs that Use Weights/Yoga DVDs that use Weights?
 

Does anyone know of any yoga or pilates workouts that utilize small handweights or med balls? I have Sexy Body Pilates with Jonathan Urla and the Yoga Tone workout with Kristin McGee.

I really like doing Pilates with either restistance bands, small weights or pilates rings to increase the difficulty of the session.

I recently purchased that Tarbell Pilates set for Athletes because from the clip on the site, this is what I thought it was, but in fact it is not. It is just a regular pilates practice. I emailed her and she said the clip on the site is from a DVD that is in post-production....so I look forward to this one.....but in the meantime, in short of just adding my own weight, are there any workouts besides the ones I mentioned that use a med ball, weights, etc.

I think I also have the Bernadette Giorgi one that uses the med ball also.

Also, do you think your arms could get toned by just holding them out as you do when doing a ballet workout or bellydance workout? or is that not the same as working them?

thanks in advance

Denise Austin's Hot Body Yoga has two segments, and one of them uses weights. I have never tried it, but there is another workout called Iron Yoga that uses weights too. As for Pilates, there is an entire 10 Minute Solution DVD that is Pilates with a band. There's also Crunch Burn and Firm Pilates that uses weights and Ellen Barrett's Slim Sculpt and Skinny Sculpt that use weights.

The Biggest Loser Yoga DVD has a section with weights.

i don't have it but supposedly tari rose hard body yoga

A lot of the old Method workouts, which I've recently acquired, use light weights for upper body and are really good!

I like Pulse Yoga - as the name implies, it's a fusion of yoga and barre, with lots of pulses.

yoga pulse, iron yoga, denise new one, sara ivanhoe's 20 min yoga with weights, yo-wei (may be harder find, got mine in a trade), steel physique yoga (its actually pretty good) there is another one called iron yoga by gina cool (don't have it but clips looked good).

tari hard body doesn't use weights but i recommend it b/c its a great bodyweight workout!!
