3.0 out of 5 stars Stick with the NYC ballet workout 2, 27 Jul 2007
By S. L. Williams "certified book worm" (Durham, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Personally I really like the New York City ballet workout, it's full of wonderful exercises that really do have go results if you stick to it. However the NYC workout 2 is far better than the first disc. On the first disc the commentary is sloppy and terms aren't explained where as the second disc has a video glossary of terms and the commentary keeps up with the dancers (whereas the first one was always 5 seconds early or late which got very confusing.)
My recommendation is to save money and just buy the second dvd - they have corrected all the faults of the first version and it's far superior because of it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best workout for Classical Music lovers, 10 Feb 2009
This is certainly the classiest of all the ballet workouts out there - not everything is difficult and will suit beginners to ballet. And for those who have already studied, it matches the classes we all remember, using the same steps.

The dancers are absolutely beautiful and an inspiration during the workout! It is filmed artistically - sometimes footwork is missing from the shot at crucial times but this by no means detracts from the professionalism of the DVD.

And, of course, the biggest thing is that there is no cheesy, distracting music as found on almost every other DVD of this kind. You can choose Classical or Contemporary and it is, mostly, beautifully played (excepting some rather insensitive interpretations of 18th century works).

I also love Darcey Bussell's "Pilates for Life" - all of the same attributes and I use it regularly.

Buy this - it's worth it!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not for Everyone, 10 Dec 2007
By A. Humphriss (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I got this workout DVD on a recommendation from a friend. I can see how you might get results if you stuck to it, but I like my excercise to feel like excercise and this is really just too slow. Also living in a flat, there are some parts which it isn't practical to do for fear of disturbing the neighbours. I can see how it would work for some people, but I think I'll stick to the gym.

This is a good video if you already know how to dance, if not it's really complicated and even the warm ups assume a knowledge of classical ballet. Read more
