A challenging and fun sequence of dancers' toning exercises followed by fluid dance patterns. Motivated by the classical orchestral soundtrack, you'll feel like you're an aspiring dancer in a "real"
ballet
training session. To help you focus, Jessica Sherwood breaks the toning into specific section(e.g. "balance," "abs," "center barre-work"). Then, she carefully - but quickly - demos each move one-on-one before moving into the full class workout. The ending cardio segment features a non-stop series of graceful, flowing ballet movements. Throughout, the terminology and attitude is pure ballet ("now we'll add a weight transfer..."). Music by Tchaikovsky, Beethoven and Bach. Note: Different exercises, a little less "artsy" and slightly more intense than the original "Ballet
Boot
Camp
." ©2002. (87 min.). For a slightly less intense workout with different exercises, see the original BalletBootCamp

Great Workout
I like this video for the workout. You are not going to become a ballerina by doing the workout. If you want to learn classical
ballet
, take a class. This is a traditional workout video. The majority of the workout involves doing floor exercises were you are going to work your abs, arms, back and legs. These are exercises that a dancer would do to maintain his or her body. Yes, there is a section in the beginning were you warm-up doing some ballet moves, and another section at the end were you can practice some more ballet moves. I usually bypass the latter. I would recommend this video. The video was filmed in a dance class, so don't expect a lavish production. The participants also appear to be students, of all ages, who are actually taking a ballet course from the instructor.

Great for toning and stretching
I am a casual
ballet
dancer who does not regulary attend class.
I have found this video a to be a great in-between workout.
I think that it is great to maintain flexibility and strength. I really needed something that was NOT high impact aeorbics -- and this is definitely it. I always feel great after using this video, not tired, sweaty, and completely worn out. I would recommend this to anyone looking to tone up.
A REAL BALLET CLASS FOR EVERYONE
This DVD is the best i own that really resembles a
ballet
class, it runs for about 1 hour and 40 minutes if you do the entire workout.
The explanation is excellent, the music is excellent, the only thing i would change about it is offering a version without the initial explanation of every exercise, after you do this dvd a couple of times you could easily skip this part.
This and the NYC Workout Vol2. deliver excellent results in the entire body.

Nice Workout. Plain and Simple.
This DVD is a good workout. It is a basic background and very plain and simple. Don't let that stop you from trying it. The exercises are effective and you will gain strength in your legs and core. You will begin to sculpt your legs and arms. I keep it in my rotation and I have many many dance and aerobic DVDs. I would recommend it if you are interested in learning dance or practicing between classes.
