Denise Austin's Mat Workout presents two 20-minute workouts emphasizing flexibility, core strength, balance, and relaxation. Workout 1 is Pilates-based, focusing on the core muscles of the abdominals and back. Pilates-based workouts are heavily founded on technique and awareness, so Austin takes time to explain and demonstrate neutral pelvis, shoulder stability, breathing technique, and the muscles you'll be working. Then she takes you through a challenging Pilates-based workout focusing on trunk stability, which translates to a killer ab workout, offering modifications for beginners.

Workout 2 includes both Pilates-based exercises and yoga postures, starting with the Sun Salutation and progressing to a variety of yoga poses that emphasize balance and flexibility and Pilates-based exercises that focus on core stability and strength.

This is a softer Denise--quiet voice, subdued pace, tranquil feeling--a nice change from the frenetic pace and unrelenting chatter of many of Austin's videos. You'll be surprised by how demanding this workout is, because of the core stability and balance challenges. --Joan Price

5 out of 5 stars One copy was not enough   November 5, 2008
Carol L. Kean (Iowa, United States)
My son left home for college and wanted to take this Pilates DVD with him. My daughter said, "No way. I use it every day, too." I had to order an extra copy. We put Denise on "mute" and work out with music.


4 out of 5 stars Like the simplicity   September 6, 2008

I was looking for a video that was not hard to do in front of my tv. Denise Austin does this with some great stretching and firming up pilates just the speed for a 52 year old woman who doesn't get out much.


5 out of 5 stars Great Workout!   August 14, 2008
J. Dominguez (Texas, United States)
This is a great workout video for people who enjoy pilates and yoga. At first the video does not seem difficult, but the further you get into it, the more you can feel the workout. I enjoy it! It has helped me slim my tummy and problem areas and it's perfect because it is not long at all. I recommend this video to anyone who wants to start exercising and strengthen their core.


5 out of 5 stars IT REALLY WORKS!   August 11, 2008

I just received this "tape" and am extremely upset with the situation. I did my search under DVD's and clearly only searched for those. Found a used one and they sent me the VHS tape. The price is so cheap for the used one that i would be paying triple what the tape costs to send it back to whomever sold me this from Amazon. Just did the search again and this is exactly the page where I purchased it from. Very Misleading!!!
