# 2001 VHS • Power Ring Pilates 60 FPS

Power Ring Pilates is an instructional fitness video hosted by Melissa Walker and produced as the introductory title in a series built around the Spry Power Ring, a flexible resistance prop used to apply isometric resistance during Pilates-based exercises. Walker leads the workout from a mat and demonstrates all movements solo throughout. The program introduces the ring through seated and supine elongation exercises, upper body presses working the chest and shoulder blades, and lat pulldown movements performed with the ring held overhead. Foundational Pilates principles of breath control, pelvic stabilization, and spinal alignment are cued consistently throughout. Floor-based sequences address the core through supine ring squeezes between the knees, followed by leg series performed in a side-lying position targeting the inner thigh and hip abductors. Walker concludes each sequence with compound holds combining the squeeze with leg lifts. The tape closes with Walker identifying the program as the first in a planned series and inviting viewers to return for additional exercises using the same equipment.
