which you-tube pilates

I would like to do pilates as my morning workout, and I need to find a pilates youtube channel that I really like. I used to take pilates classes but that is not an option now, so I know the traditional movement sequences, and I have the muscle control through the core. I think I would like a total body focus, because it seems that I get muscle imbalances when I do parts workouts. I have tried a few channels and not found the one that I can stick with. Do you have any suggestions and why you like them?

Desie, I'm no Pilates expert, and I don't do it nearly as much as I used to. I recently did find that I like Speir Pilates TV, although oddly, I don't like the main instructor, Andrea Speir (just do not click with her). I like Kate Rich, and I think I've tried at least one other.

Another big fan of Ange's Pilates. The other channel I subscribe to is Trifecta Pilates.

Ange is my favorite pilates on youtube. Not the only one I use but she's my favorite.

Ditto, I really like both of these. I started using them about 2 months ago on Sandy's recommendation.
ETA: Why I like them: Ange's instruction and cueing are excellent. The workouts on both sites are challenging but not brutal like Linda Woolridge's workouts (which are really not Pilates anyway but just as a point of comparision) Also they both offer workouts of varying lengths and use small equipment effectively.

Ange's Pilates looks great! Happy that I peeped into this thread. I like her already just from a few previews.

Thank you for this! Yesterday I tried their True Core 1 and Free Weight Arms 2 with Andrea and really liked both workouts. I do pilates fairly regularly but boy, do I feel my abs and arms today! I am looking forward to trying the rest of their workouts.
