served it's purposeJan 05, 2007
By D. Thompson I bought the "magic circle" in efforts to up the anty in my pilates routine. I am glad I purchased it but I found the DVD to be about a 2 star out of 5 start rating. Since I live far away from a Pilates studio I purchased other DVDs in efforts to learn about the magic circle. the DVD from Classical Pilates Inc. called "The Complete Magic Cirlce Mat Series & Reformer Mat Workout" (also on Amazon.com)taught me more about the circle's use than the DVD that came with it. It is a basic straight forward mat routine DVD but it was practical and I am well on my way to a more complete Pilates workout.
I also use the magic circle to burn off extra energy while sitting and I find my boyfriend picks it up and uses it to get a few exercises in every day. It can be used in many ways but it most certainly enhances a pilates work out.

the ring is worth the purchaseMar 26, 2007
By Jonalee A. Watkins
"JL"
I have used the ring 3 - 4x/week since the purchase and very happy with it. It has provided sufficient resistance and has not "broken down". I do not use this ring with the dvd it came with. I didn't like the dvd it came with but have used the ring with Winsor Pilates and Karen Voight workouts that use a pilates ring. I've been satisified with the results.

Pilates Magic CircleAug 26, 2007
By B. Mcmenemie I would have given this product 5 stars, but the video was not up to standards for someone who is really into Pilates. Each exercise is demonstrated very fast, and there is not much exercise at all. On the other hand, the magic circle is great! It is well made, and can take a punishment. This was the reason I purchased this item, because I needed a good circle to work with. Comparing other circles to this that cost a lot more this was by far the best product. I would highly recommend the circle, but would not recommend the tape. When I purchased this item, I also purchased the Classical Pilates Technique, The Complete Magic Circle Mat Series. This DVD has BASIC, INTERMEDIATE, ADVANCED, plus THE SUPER ADVANCED REFORMER MAT WORKOUT. The exercises are performed well with great timing. This is a video that everyone from the basic learner to the most advanced learner would absolutely love.

Very little resistance in this circleApr 13, 2010
By Beth Fix
"Beth Ann Fix"
I bought this circle because of the lower price. It came in today and I did a workout with it. I am used to the pilates "fitnesscircle" (Stott) from the gym. These are a tough resistance that make your workout extra hard and in return gain you more strength and muscle. As soon as I put this circle between my thighs, it was very easy to push my legs together (and that shouldn't be the case). In my opinion, with this, you get what you pay for. I returned this product today.

It's great; just like the one used in my Pilates classSep 21, 2007
By Patricia Keller

This magic circle is durable and versatile. The DVD is informative, but I would have liked a chart of exercises, as well. This is the same Magic Circle that Pilates instructors use. I almost bought one from my Pilates teacher, but it was considerably more expensive and did not include the DVD. For core workouts, the Magic Circle can't be beat. It can also be used in conjunction with other equipment.
