Upcoming Release - Mari Winsor's Lower Body Pilates

Wonder how this will compare to her Buns and Thigh DVD? Right now I am enjoying Andrea Orbeck's Supermodel Butt and Thighs, but will probably purchase this one when it is released.

http://www.amazon.com/Lower-Body-Pil...7020213&sr=1-2

Master Pilates instructor Mari Winsor brings 3 practices focused on areas of the body her devoted fans have asked for most hips, thighs and glutes.

DVD INCLUDES:

Slim & Sculpt Hip Workout (20 minutes)
Slim down and sculpt a lean, toned waistline while firming hips with this body shaping routine.

Trim & Tone Thigh Workout(20 minutes)
This power session focuses on lengthening and tightening the thigh muscles for leaner, more defined legs.

Lift & Shape Glute Workout (20 minutes)
The secret to a rock-hard backside, this workout focuses on firming, lifting and shaping your glutes.

BONUS DOWNLOADABLE:
Express Abs Workout (10 minutes)
Get flatter, longer, sleeker ab muscles with this focused core workout.

I really love Mari's Buns and Thighs DVD so I'm assuming I would really enjoy this too. Am I correct in also assuming it's a new DVD and not a compilation of some of her older workouts?

Mari has been good about keeping things new. I have her newer Slimming Pilates and while her cueing is horrendous it is a nice compilation with some new moves (to me).

The new one looks interesting...I do wonder how it compares to her old workouts. Several times I have tried to get into Mari Winsor workouts since I do love pilates, but each time I got bored and went to something else. Well, I found a bunch of them really cheap one day at a thrift store (even the OOP hard to find ones) and decided I would try them one more time, so maybe I should actually break them out and see if I can commit to it this time. I will keep an eye on the new one, interested in seeing a clip before I buy.

I'm not a fan of Mari's instruction, but if the clips look good I'll bite. There are not enough moves in the pilates matwork repertoire to fill one hour, so this DVD must include other things, hopefully exercises adapted from the apparatus.

Yes, but now she's with Giaim. And she's now built up a 'catalog' of workouts for them from which to compile.

The cover resembles her last video (the abs one) and it was all new footage, so here's to hoping! I'd really like it if she came up with a follow-up to buns & thighs.
