This DVD was very beneficial to me in strengthening my lower back after an injury. The DVD has a menu so you can go directly to the program you want. There are three parts to this DVD. The first section is a lengthy lesson on proper alignment and form during the exercises. Watch it a time or two and then you can proceed to the workouts. The next section is a workout is filmed in a garden setting. The music and setting are very relaxing and the movements are adaquately slow for someone with a bad back. The third section is a second workout filmed indoors. It also has a relaxing setting and music and the pace was not too fast. The instructors voice is pleasant but she has a definate english accent. I didn't find this to be a problem. She explains the moves well and is easy to listen to. The DVD doesn't contain any "extras" just the two workouts and the lesson at the beginning. I found it perfect for gently strengthening my back without adding furthur injury. I am new to pilates and found I could do most all of the moves. I liked that the program was relaxing and could be done before bedtime as well as during the day. I felt it was well worth the cost of the DVD. I would also recommend the DVD set "Posture, Get It Straight!"by Janice Novak, also available on Amazon. This one is not for recupperating injured backs but is the best program out there for strengthening the whole back and quickly improving one's posture. You would want to use it when your back is not hurting. Check out the reviews for that one for more detailed info.
