Product Details

Product Description

From Amazon.com

Peter Martins, Ballet Master in Chief of the New York City Ballet, and four graceful dancers--two men, two women--offer a beautifully produced, challenging, 90-minute strength and flexibility workout. The moving warm-up readies your muscles and makes you feel like a dancer. Most of the workout focuses on the abdominals and lower body (thighs, calves, buttocks), with exercises that ballet dancers use to strengthen and lengthen their muscles and condition their core. At the end, you learn patterns for a ballet routine which becomes a short cardiovascular workout. New York City Ballet Workout, Vol. 2 builds on what was best about the popular New York City Ballet Workout--the graceful moves and gorgeous dancers--and includes the much-needed instruction and technique that was missing in the original. If you love watching or dancing ballet, New York City Ballet Workout, Vol. 2 is your workout. Highly recommended. --Joan Price


Synopsis

If you've longed to have the lean, toned and athletic body of a professional ballet dancer, this video could be just what you're looking for. A follow up to the successful New York City Ballet Workout, The New York City Ballet Workout, Vol. 2 features Ballet Master in Chief Peter Martins and four of his best dancers as they demonstrate a series of ballet exercises which can help you lose weight and tone muscles while gaining grace and poise at the same time. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

3.0 out of 5 stars Not fun, but challanging, April 14 2004
I started exercising daily 8 weeks ago and have been buying different workout routines to try and vary my program. I only workout at home. I like my exercise programs to be challanging and *fun*. This is semi challanging (I never broke a sweat). This is *not* fun. Now, I will preface this by saying I am the type who enjoyed Denise Austins "Pilates for Every Body". I thought that because I liked the standing ballet work that Denise did that I would love this one- more ballet, right! I also enjoy motivational vocal cueing. Even Veena and Neenas "Bellydance" voice over instruction is more enthusiastic than this. Here in NYC Ballet 2, the dancers are expressionless, and the entire instruction is done by a voice over from someone who remains completely monotone the entire video.

They are beautiful.

You may feel challanged (If you do pilates you won't feel challanged- though the exercises on the abs were unique, they work the same sort of core groups as pilates does).

Its dull if you like fun workouts.

Its way too long to have such a monotone speaker.

If I want to be serious, challanged and do mattwork- I will do a pilates routine. If I want to relax, I do yoga. I don't have a place to fit this NYC ballet program in.

If you are someone who wants ballet style toning, ***serious*** and focused on the exercises, you will enjoy this. If you want to have fun while learning ballet moves and enjoy vocal cueing and enthusiasm, you will like Jody Hoegstedt's "Balletone" better- which incorperates ballet style toning with enthusiasm.

But as I said, I am a person who likes motivational, fun cueing. If that doesn't matter to you, and you want to ballet tone with professional dancers you will like this.

3.0 out of 5 stars there are two volumes to this series YOU ONLY NEED ONE, Jun 24 2004
I recently bought both DVDs for this series however they are both exactly the same, but with different dancers. you only need One of this series. I will however say that these videos have the best stretching excerises that I have ever done. and this dvd offers you the option of choosing how you want your work out to progress.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great workout!, May 17 2004
By A Customer
I have had this DVD for months but I just now started doing the workout and I love it. It is very innovative as far as workout DVDs go. You can program your own sequence of exercises in whatever order you like. Although I have not yet mastered the ballet moves, I am confident with a little more practice I will be keeping up with the dancers on the dvd. The glossary of moves on the dvd also is very helpful in getting the form of each move down correctly. I also like the options of classical or modern music and although I am not ready for it yet, the option of no verbal words and just music will be so nice when I am a "pro" and don't need the verbal cues or instruction.
