Always Wanted To Take Ballet? Check Out This Amazing Workout!



The 411 by Maria:

WOW! WOW! WOW! I love this DVD. Mary Helen Bowers was the trainer for Natalie Portman in Black Swan and while I will never look like either of them while doing these exercises I am excited to try them.

I love the breakdown of the exercises and how fluid and easy the exercises look.  The music and set impressed me also. Very pretty, relaxed and subdued.

Since my surgery was only 3 weeks ago I will not be trying the exercises until I get a medical OK and as easy as Mary Helen makes the exercises look, I bet you really feel it after you are done.  Watching the arm exercises I was tempted to try but I know that each exercises requires a strong core and that is not something I have at the moment plus my tummy band reminds me that I need to wait however, I am extremely excited to try these and can't wait to dive in.


While watching I did wonder where it was filmed because every once in a while there was a clanking that was distracting. Perhaps she is on a dock and there were anchors being pulled in. Oh well, made it even more interesting.

Very excited to start this program. Let me know if you are doing it to and how you like it.
