"Working with Peggy is a dream! Her ideas are terrific and the relationship she develops with you makes you feel confident about improvement."-- Coach Mike Krzyzewski, head coach of Duke University's men's basketball team

"Nothing is more important to strength, health and vitality than strong core muscles. I know this from both personal and professional experience.

And because it takes only 15 minutes per day, everyone can benefit." -- Christiane Northrup, author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom

"Using The Core Program, you'll give your body a head-to-toe workout that will also tone your muscles and carve inches off your waist and hips. You'll look great and feel terrific. Best of all, the easy-to-do Core movements can be done no matter how old you are. It doesn't matter whether you are overweight or skinny, fit or sedentary."-- Peggy Brill
