If you've always desired the sleek toned muscles of ballet dancers, this workout is for you! Ballet Body is an elegant, flowing workout that blends muscle strengthening with muscle stretching to create a true dancer’s body. Jennifer’s non-technical cuing focuses on alignment and technique; she makes it doable, effective, and fun. Each of the three standing segments has a specific emphasis: legs, core, and balance. They often combine tough legs and buttocks exercises with soft arm motions (e.g., back-and-forth plies with fifth position arms). The floorwork section includes Pilates and floor barre work (barre work done on the floor). It all ends with a very soothing dance stretch. Each segment delivers maximum benefits to ensure you'll see results whether you pick one or all routines. Choose from: Warm Up, Strength, Balance, Floor Barre, or Stretch or put all of them together for an hour-long intense toning and stretch session! Requires 1 to 5 lb. dumbbells. Choose from: Warm Up: Not your average warm up, this traditional dance conditioning sequence delivers a great workout, even when done on its own! Strength: This segment focuses on developing strong, lean muscles, without the bulk. Light hand weights are optional, but you’ll see results with or without the extra challenge. Balance: A standing series of exercises that incorporate balance to target every muscle in your body. The results? A tight, toned, midsection, a lifted backside, and improved posture and ‘presence’ so you’ll stand tall, slim, and graceful. Floor Barre: This segment takes it to the floor, working your muscles from a different position for enhanced results. It combines ballet moves, Pilates exercises and yoga inspired postures to tone every inch of your body – even your toughest problem areas! Stretch: A perfect combination to any workout, this extended stretch session will elongate the muscles, enhance your flexibility, and calm your mind. Perfect after any workout.
