Nice production but hard to follow
This is a very-well produced video on stretching and the music is excellent. Most of the moves are not difficult, but the main routines are continuous flow from one position to another. Despite an introduction to each routine where Smith shows each of the moves she will be making, when she gets into the actual program she moves rapidly to the music and the positions are hard to follow. One can't watch the video and do the positions, as a lot of them require looking somewhere else to execute properly. I've done this program about 10 times so far, as it is a good balanced workout for posture, flexibility and building core strength, but I still am not in synch with her movements.

Feeling better already!
I had purchased this video in VHS format several years ago and wanted to get back into the routine so ordered the DVD. After a couple of weeks of exercising with the video, I can now do the routine on my own with classical recordings. I can already see and feel a difference in my 68 year-old body. I'll never be a ballerina, but I can pretend!

Not very interesting
Not terriby interesting or professionally produced. I only tried it twice and just couldn't get all the way thru it... although I could certainly do the stretches, it was just so boring.It might be better for older people (60's, 70's, or 80's) or for people who are rehabilitating from some injuries.

Found it to be just OK
I found it just to slow for me to get involved. I do think she is an extraordinary person with much to offer but just not for me.

Good.
Fine Ann Smith CD. Not as good as the original Stretching For Seniors in my opinion. However still a good one.

Too complicated
I tried it one night and it was just too complicated for me. More for someone with some ballet or yoga experience.

I was disappointed by this videoThe instructional portion is colourless and monotone. The routine does not have its own menu entry, is quite brief, and I did not find it useful or notMotivating when she turned her back. I have enjoyed other videos by Ann Smith much more
