Karyne Steben, a world-class acrobat formerly with Cirque du Soleil, leads us through the sculpting workout, combining strength moves with graceful flexibility.

First time exercisers can feel at ease; Karyne illustrates exercise techniques and explains the dos and don'ts of exercise during pregnancy in a clear, easy-to-understand twelve-minute instructional section.

The Perfect Pregnancy Workout video is a 43 minute pregnancy exercise video: 5 minute warm-up, 33 minute workout, 5 minute cool down. There is also a 12 minute instructional section explaining proper technique for pregnancy exercise.

A *perfect* DVD to use with The Perfect Pregnancy Workout vol. 2, featuring Karyne's twin sister, Sarah. Using Sarah's yoga workout on alternate days will bring flexibility and balance to the strength and discipline you build with Karyne's workout.

With exercise variations to make it fun and easy for beginners or challenging for advanced exercisers, anyone can do The Perfect Pregnancy Workouts!
