3.0 out of 5 stars Outdated, Very Basic and minimal
Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2023
Verified Purchase
Was a little disappointed. It's very thin and missing so many poses and so I found it to be outdated, basic and minimal. If I'd seen the inside I'd probably not have gotten it. It does cover some foundational moves but it's really common stuff that instructors will already know.
