About Gaiam
Gaiam was created as a lifestyle company with the vision that, given a choice, people would choose a lifestyle that is healthy and life enhancing, for themselves, their families and the Earth. The Gaiam lifestyle is a vote for individual health as well as the future sustainability of the Earth's resources. Gaiam strives to provide customers with alternatives to traditional products by offering natural, eco-friendly or healthy versions that compare with the style, quality and price of conventional products.

Gaiam's goal is to become the trusted source and unifying brand for Lifestyle of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS) participants. They understand that the opportunity to affect people's lives with information and products is both a privilege and a responsibility. Gaiam believes in the concept of Conscious Commerce, the practice of making purchasing decisions based on personal values and beliefs. It takes into consideration all the aspects of our lives and the impact we have upon the planet. Research indicates this concept appeals to approximately 50 million people in the U.S. alone. Gaiam's strategy in delivering the distinctive quality for which they are known is to partner with experts in health/wellness, eco-living and personal development to develop proprietary products that meet our customers' needs with meaningful solutions.

The name GAIAM is a fusion of the words Gaia (the name of Mother Earth from the Minoan civilization in ancient Crete), and I am reminds us that we are all interconnected with the Earth, the air and water, and very much a part of this living system that sustains us all.

Product Description
Enjoy a total body workout during your Pilates routine with this Gaiam Total Body Challenge kit. Up your practice, get leaner, stronger and longer! Increase your flexibility and poise while revealing hidden muscles and building your core strength. Sculpt and redefine your entire body. By adding resistance to your Pilates practice, you'll isolate specific muscle groups to tone more efficiently. You'll develop your shoulders, biceps, triceps, abs, hips, thighs, and buttocks. Your entire body is targeted. The neck pillow supports and keeps you aligned throughout the lower body, upper body and abs workouts. Bundled with a neck support, a Pilates mat, a resistance band, and a workout DVD, the kit includes everything you need to tone and sculpt faster and more efficiently. The latex-free Pilates mat is twice as thick as a standard sticky yoga mat, thereby delivering extra cushioning during your workout. The neck pillow, meanwhile, offers support for your head, neck, and shoulders while you flex your upper body. It's the resistance band that really stands out, however, as it lets you incorporate resistance into your Pilates routine for superior overall results. Includes instructional (60 minute) DVD lead by leading Pilates instructor Linda Farrell, resistance band, neck support pillow and Premium Pilates Mat. Segmented DVD targets upper body, lower body and abs in 20-minute sessions. Mat: 68"L x 24"W x 1/4"D. China.
