Simply the best. I heartily recommend this video/DVD to anyone of any age and level of fitness who wants to begin a healthy exercise routine. "Beginning Callanetics" demonstrates how each exercise can be adapted around different limitations, such as weak legs, bad back, lack of flexibility, etc.. The movements are tiny and use minimal energy, so they're low impact and easy on the spine and joints. This starts more gently than yoga and pilates, yet becomes more taxing as the muscles develop. After mastering this routine, one can progress onto the faster-paced "Callanetics", and other ones, like "Cardio-Callanetics", etc.. There are books containing more exercises, but I personally feel that working along with the video is an easier and more enjoyable way to learn the basics. Like others who try the program, I have had excellent results in 2 months - I am stronger, more flexible and streamlined, and have dropped to a smaller clothes size.

Excellent for toning and suppleness.. The easy looking exercises belie what goes on underneath. Exercise 4 times a week and notice results within a month. It strenghens, tones, changes posture and makes you so supple you'd swear that you were 10 years old again. You can do the exercise in your living room and all you need is a chair and a structure as high as a dining table. You need dedication though and just watching the video is not going to do it for you.
