Beginning Callanetics with Callan Pinckney

Very gentle stretches combined with short pulsed muscle toning. The extended stretches are super-relaxing; they're both refreshing and comforting. The toning features Callan's legendary "deep muscle" pulse technique -- very subtle motions that may only move 1/16th of an inch.
Originally filmed in 1989, this is the easiest program in the Callanetics series. It's also the most fully explained, with lots of optional level and position modifications. You also get detailed, hands-on instruction plus on-screen movement and rep-count displays.
Includes a bonus 4-minute back health workout.

Callan Pinckney, the creator of Callanetics, gives a full hour of clear, complete instructions on how to perform every movement in this 30 minute beginner's routine. Unlike other exercise programs that stress hard jerking motions, Beginning Callanetics is a safe, gentle, easy-to-learn routine designed especially for the beginner. If you have never exercised before or if you are trying to get back into a regular routine, Beginning Callanetics has been developed so you can learn the fundamentals of Callanetics at your own pace. Callanetics is a series of small, gentle, precise motions consistently applied that quickly tighten hips, buttocks, inner and outer thighs, flatten the tummy, lift the bust, firm underarms, tone the entire body and dramatically improve your posture. Featuring exercises for every part of the body, Beginning Callanetics also includes a special bonus section of exercises to improve and strengthen your back.
