Summary: well rounded
Comment: Only if you adore ballet. You definetly need a little background to do the standing up part. Whats really good about it is that they selected basic ballet exercises which you can actually do without the complete turnout in the hip joint expected from pros. If you aproach it with the love for the art it will be worth your while but if you want to work out NOW its not for you; it takes a little more time and patience to imitate the form and develop balance. The visuals are wonderfull and so is the music.

Summary: I like it...
Comment: My ballet experience has been limited to attending a cousin's dance recital when I was about 10 years old, but I find this workout fun. It is somewhat difficult for one who hasn't been exercising (me) and takes a little practice, but it's worth it. I am already more flexible and am more aware of the way I move. It's a great workout for anyone who wants to see quick results.

Summary: Ballet
Comment: Just what I was looking for, not too easy, not to hard. A workout that is like going to a dance class, but without the other students.

Summary: amazing benefits
Comment: i did ballet growing up and continued til i was almost 18.. at the time my body was lean and my posture was great and i was flexible, fit & energetic.
now i am almost 30 with a kid( you can imagine the difference), and after doing this dvd only once, i feel like there is hope for me and the rest of the world!
this is a great low-impact workout that stretches and elongates each muscle in the body.
i am really happy with it and i look forward to my second workout (dvd 2)
one more thing, the narrator is amazing and the presentation is fantastic...

Summary: How Disappointing
Comment: I bought this dvd on sale, and thank God I did. I am more than disappointed. One would think, as this one did, that this being presented by the NY City Ballet, it would be fantastic!! But oh, how unfantastic it is. The stretching segment, which I was sooo looking forward to, is more than a joke. That's all the stretching that they do?! Take my word when I say don't buy this, rent it from the library, borrow from a friend, burn a copy, but don't buy it - save your money.
