Customer Reviews

This is the best book you can buy on Pilates

I do Pilates at a weekly class here in the UK and was looking for a book that would help me to continue at home. Having looked around, this is really the best book that there is - clear, informative and easy to follow. I can't recommend it highly enough

A lot of book with "a little pilates!"

I highly recommend this book because it was very easy to read and was incredibly helpful for a beginning pilates student! I've begun taking classes and this book is an invaluable tool for successfull pilates practice.

Perfect traveler

The Little Pilates Book is the perfect match for me,a pilates beginner and frequent traveler. I like its straight-forward "basicness", brief explanations and easy to follow exercises. And the size of this book is perfect for travel; I just tuck it in my carry-on and pull it out for a few great, invigorating stretches at the end of a stressful day. And, as an added plus, when I hear friends complaining about their sagging bellies, I wrap up a Little Pilates Book (it's so cheap!) for their birthday. Needless to say, I'm a Pilates convert, and I think The Little Pilates Book is a little gem.

My tummy's getting yummy

After swearing by Dillman's THE LITTLE YOGA BOOK the last couple of years, it was a no brainer buying THE LITTLE PILATES BOOK. This was my second attempt to start practicing pilates. I had to stop previously because I found other pilates books too confusing. Dillman, however, is clear and concise, and i can see the results of my reading when i look in the mirror. There's no stopping me now. i highly recommend this book!!

Great Instruction

Dillman takes a difficult exercise and explains it in simple terms. The Little Pilates Book is just as great if not better that The Little Yoga Book. It's a small, compact book to take with you anywhere. The exercises can be done anywhere. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about Pilates.
