The DVD is very difficult to follow. If you''ve never used a stability ball before, this DVD will move at a very fast pace for you. By the time I figured out how my body was supposed to be positioned, the DVD was already on to the next exercise. The DVD is is divided into warm-up/level one/level two/cool down segments. Level one for some reason is a lot more difficult than level two. It includes exercises that combine the ball and the band. Level two is very short and uses just the ankle band.
Overall, the DVD was too short, not organized, moved too quickly, did not break moves down into simple segments first, contained moves too difficult for most beginners and required materials not included in the kit.
You''d be much better off buying a stability ball,a set of resistance bands, and a Pilates DVD (with good reviews) separately.
Pros: Very pleasant customer service people. I called about missing parts in my kit (pump and tape measure) and I was able to talk to someone immediately and they were very nice.I bought this item from Natural Fitness directly, and not from Amazon. When it arrived, the box was completely damaged and not placed in a separate shipping box, but shipped in the actual product box. Overlooking the box damage, inside the product looked almost as if it had been purchased and returned. Almost all of the items were placed in open bags that were taped up, as apposed to sealed bags as one would expect from a new item. However, everything did look and smell new. Overlooking this packaging issue as well, I proceeded to inflate the ball according to the directions to 80% and then waiting 24 hours prior to inflating it further. Now that the ball is fully inflated, I can see that it is not quite a circle, but more of an oblong/oval-ish shape. In addition, it is not the color advertised in the picture online or on the box, but a MUCH darker, less ascetically pleasing green. I still use it, as the cost of shipping it back for a return was too high, and it is not a terrible product, but I would recommend buying an exercise ball from a store instead of onlineand maybe even going with another brand or size if you don''t want an oval. I do however commend this brand for being environmentally friendly and planting a tree for every purchase. One more positive is that the material seems quite thick and I don''t anticipate it popping anytime soon.

I think this product is very good. The video provides a warm up and a beginner''s level as well as advanced instructions. I''m a beginner so it works well for me!Read Best Reviews of Natural Fitness Resistance Toning Kit Here
Just received the package today so I haven''t tried it out yet but it seems like a great product. Everything is as described, except it''s missing the tape measure that is supposed to come with it that tells you how much air to pump into the ball. So I''m a little disappointed since I''m not sure if I''m putting the right amount of air into it...I was very happy with this toning kit... the only reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 was because I expected the exercise ball to be bigger. But besides that, it works great!!!! I was telling my friend how much I liked it and she purchased a kit as well, and loves it!
