new Suzanne Bowen dvds

I recently picked up 10 Min. Solution Pilates Perfect Body and really like it, and Suzanne. I went to her old website which was on the back of the dvd and it brought me to the site for her new (?) company, http://www.ruahmovement.com , where there are 2 dvds listed with a release date of Feb. 6. One is a prenatal workout, the other is called Release with Leah Sarago and "integrates cardio, strength, and flexibility training through postural movement and flow." There's also a cover up for a dvd called Warrior due out in the summer. Unfortunately, no clips available yet.

Anyone have more info about these? And are Suzanne's other 10 Min Solution dvds worth getting? (I didn't realize until reading her bio that she was the lead in Hip Hugger Abs...that's the only Lotte Berk I don't have.)

Oh, cool! I tried to order the Release DVD but there is no option to order from Canada so I contacted them to inquire about it

Missmomus, I liked Suzanne's earlier 10 Minute Solution, Slim & Sculpt Pilates (my review). It's more straight up Pilates, with moves from the reformer and other apparatus, and uses the resistance band. This doesn't seem to get as much love here as her Pilates Perfect Body, however.

I was just wondering this morning if Suzanne had any plans to make a non-10MS workout!

Count me as one of the few that really enjoys Slim & Sculpt Pilates as well as Pilates Perfect Body. Maybe even more.

Off to check out the website....

you must get it if you are a SB fan! she's so sweet in it. i liked it so much that when the 10MS's came out, i was eager to try them.

Leah Sarago replied to my email request super quickly and added an option to ship to Canada... on a Sunday evening - what excellent customer service!

I ordered "Release"

For those interested, Leah told me the DVDs are also available on Amazon and on the website of the person who composed their music: http://www.rainingpresence.com/product_p/ruah001.htm

Ditto! I hope you get it soon. I need to do my last round of dvd buying before I leave for spain for 3+ months and am cut off from acquiring more dvds. Oh gosh, I need to make a list. This one sounds interesting, but the description is very brief / vague, and there are no clips. I wonder why instructors do that?

Missmomus, thanks for bringing thses to my attention! Last night I ordered Release from Amazon. It was $15.99 + 2.98 s & h. I like both these ladies and their style...I was intrigued enough to take a chance.
