I haven't taken a dance class in a long time and I am CRAVING it! My cousin and I have taken classes together such as a tap/jazz class (it was straight out of High School Musical and I loved every minute of it!). Now I would like to relearn Ballet. Unfortunately, we're both trying to save money (That's hard to believe I know. I'm trying. I really, really am!). Did I mention that I'm going to London, Paris and Rome in May? Oh I did? Well I need some mullah for our inevitable shopping trips. I mean come on, we're going to Paris! The city of shopping! (Or maybe it's the city of lights. Tomato, tamoto.)
So our ballet class will have to wait till this summer. (I'm shedding a tear just thinking about it) But then I received (thanks Ang!) one of the most challenging and fun workout programs that I have done in a long time. It's called the New York City Ballet The Complete Workout. It is actual dancers from the actual New York City ballet, and they are doing moves that they actually do everyday to workout their muscles and get them ready to dance. (I said actual 3 times so you better believe me when I say they are real dancers!)
And oh does it work! It not only tones and tightens my muscles but it's FUN! It has definitely helped me to get out some of my desires to dance. (For now!) And the best part is... I don't even have to leave my living room!
If your dancing feet are wiggling from the thought of this, then you need to check it out! I found both disk 1 and 2 on half.com for $20.93. If you're not a dancer or if you don't like dancing then this DVD is probably not the best workout for you. Also, if you're looking to loose weight then you would need to do this along with something else. But if you're looking to tone up then this is perfect! It seriously tones everything from your legs and bum to your arms and core.
Just call me the Black Swan...on second thought I'd rather be the White Swan if that's ok?
Happy dancing, loves!
ballet as a workout is simply perfect x
