Book Reviews of Complete Idiot's Guide to the Pilates Method

Book Review: If you buy just one book on Pilates  THIS SHOULD BE IT!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Help! I've lost the keys to my Cadillac! I need to go to reform(er) school!

Before I read Ms. Karter's book, I had a different interpretation of that statement. I was initially curious about the concept of Pilates - but was always intimidated by the equipment and the complex look of the moves. However, after seeing her demonstrate the exercises on TV and listening to her on the radio, I decided to buy the book. Best thing that I ever did.

This book takes away all of the mystery - and is written in a fun, witty, and clear manner. The photos are extremely helpful - and a lot easier to understand than the other Pilates books I have read. It kept my full attention from start to finish. I have recommended it to all of my fiends, and bought several copies as gifts.

If you buy just one book on Pilates - THIS SHOULD BE IT!!.
