New York! New York! - New York City Ballet: Workout: Vol.2 review by CP Customer
Knowing full well that I had never done Ballet before, and suspecting that I may have the grace and clarity of a hippo - I decided that if I was going to learn and keep fit in this way it would need to be in the privicy of my own home.
So I donned my leg warmers and....sat and watched the 1hr DVD before trying. It is advisable that you do this in my opinion, because even though the excersises are not difficult as such, in order to get the best out of the excersises, you need to get the posture right.
I would also advise you do it in front of a mirror, as I had done the DVD 4 times before I eventually got my sisters involved who then proceeded to tell me that I was doing it all wrong - and looking in the mirror I realised I was!!!
Its a good workout if you do it right, and there are a mixture of low impact and high impact excersises, though the dance rountine at the end with either preplex you for a few sessions, or have you in stitches at yourself!
