If you are a Senior you have probably taken a fall, or knows someone who has. Perhaps you are constantly afraid of falling. Well, if you practice the Stronger Seniors Balance and Posture Program, you can move about with grace and confidence. Your balance and posture will improve to a point where you can walk, or even dance, without that constant fear that you might take a tumble and suffer serious injury. Anne was asked to speak for the National Council on Aging on the subject of Posture and how poor posture can effect your balance. Out of that research came this DVD program, Balance and Posture. The video is separated into two separate routines- first Balance, then Posture. The Balance exercises emphasize strength and flexibility in the hips, legs, and ankles. Plus, you'll practice your footwork with some simple dance steps as well as the coordination of your brain and your feet. In the Posture section, Anne shows how important having a strong, straight spine is in maintaining your ability to move without the fear of falling. She will take you through some simple exercises that will strengthen your lower back and lengthen your spine. While these Balance and Posture exercises are essential to your health and safety, you may find that they are really fun to do! --Anne Pringle Burnell Excellent presenter-effective moves-just the right sequences and repetitions.

I still like it.
I must agree with some of the other reviews, this is not one of her most polished DVDs. However, as I already have her other DVDs, I am able to follow her instructions and enjoy doing so. IF she ever "cleans-up" this DVD, I would most certainly like to have/get one.

A Very Helpful and Needed Exercise for posture and Balance
Whatever Ann Pringle Burnell does for seniors is always helpful and effective. The CD does not seem to be as polished as the other CD's in the presentation and content. But still, it is quite useful and I shall use it as part of the repetoire of a group of CD's that I use and alternate for my physical well being

Stronger Senior s Balance & Posture DVD
I love this DVD. Though the sound quality is NOT THE BEST, I did not buy it for sound quality. I bought it for the exercises and I believed they have helped my balance and posture. So, if the sound quality can be overlooked I would recommend the DVD for the selection of exercises

Good Content, Poor Film Quality
I have mixed feelings about this DVD. Anne's exercises are very sensible and strengthening, and I can see that they will accomplish the purpose for which I bought the DVD. Her DVDs are not strenuous, but they do what they're designed to do, and the music is not too loud, for which I'm grateful. As far as the film production is concerned, not so much. The sound quality goes from loud to soft and back again, and there are some places where the film does not flow from one scene to the other seamlessly. If that doesn't bug you too much, then I would recommend this item.

All of her videos are excellent for people who are out of shape and unable to do vigorous exercises. You can also adapt them to your ability level. Highly recommend every one of them. This one is great for anyone who has balance problems, whether due to age or disability or inner ear issues.

Easy to follow DVD and excellent.
Good DVD to follow. Anne talks slowly and her DVD is easy to follow. I have lost 99 lbs. over the last 12 yrs. 81 of those lbs. over the last 2 years. I have all her DVD's and enjoy everyone. I have bad knees and I know my limits. Thanks Anne, Joyce M.
