How many times per week should I do pilates?

Benefits of Pilates
So I just got started on it yesterday and loved it (bought a couple dvds). I am really sore from it today. Is it okay if I do it everyday for 5 days a week, or should I do it every other day to let my muscles rest? I am not sure what the appropriate schedule is for pilates. Thanks.
i do it 3 days a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday), giving my body a day in between to rest as well as the weekend. if you do it too frequently, you will hurt a muscle or tear a ligament or cartilage, which is not good at all.

some people do it every other day. but u dont have to. 5 days a week will work, but make sure you rest the other two days.

Doing it 4 times a week will be enough for you to start seeing results.
I do it every other day.
