Ballet Dancers always have slender bodies that are both strong and lean with lovely proportion and gorgeous body lines. One of the greatest secrets to a dancer's body is ballet conditioning which focuses on all muscle groups. In this unique program your muscles will work smoothly in unison to create a long streamlined silhouette with flat abs a lean lower body and beautifully defined curves. Moving gracefully and fluidly through this series of exercises you will strengthen and stretch your way to a dancer s body.Element is proud to support the Arbor Day Foundation.

Summary: Blistering workout-- Awesome
Comment: This video is deceptively intense, but an amazingly simple workout for the effort. 40-45 minutes of intense muscle toning for legs, with incredible stretches and resistence work for arms that leaves you feeling leaner, taller and stronger every time. Another 10-15 minutes of intense abs work to round it out. I highly recommend this video for casual dancers (like, if you took ballet classes as a pre-teen) and those who never have danced to really challenge your muscles in new and unique ways. It gets easier over time as your flexibility develops (and it does), but never stops being an exhausting workout.

Summary: Great ballet DVD!
Comment: This is exactly what I was looking for!! I had taken ballet for several years up until high school. It has now been 10 years since then and I wanted a refresher on the exercises I used to do for strengthening and stretching. This DVD is perfect! It has all the exercises I used to do, what a great way to tone up my body again.

Summary: Superb!
Comment: This Ballet Conditioning DVD is excellent! It provides a magnificent workout and is fun to do. Set against a beautiful backdrop and accompanied with serene music, I can totally feel my whole body transforming every time I do it. I have especially noticed a difference in my legs and arms after 14 days. I actually look forward to doing this DVD 3-4 times a week. It has become one of my absolute favorite exercise DVD's ever.

Summary: GREAT WORK OUT!!
Comment: I love this DVD! I used to do ballet but haven't in YEARS. I was looking for an interesting workout and this is fantastic. It's challenging and fun. I have been doing it every other day for almost 2 weeks and can already see more definition in my legs! You just feel BETTER after this DVD. I plan to continue until I can master the moves as well as the instructor (trust me, some of it is tough). I feel like I REALLY get a good workout in. Highly recommended!

Summary: Staying in Shape While Sailing
Comment: This DVD is a great cross-training regime for me as a runner. This video provides an overall workout, focusing on flexibility, strength and balance. The instructor is encouraging in a relaxed manner, which I need to get through the grande plies series that sets my thighs on fire. That's not to mention the ab chapter that puts me to shame. Besides the great workout, another benefit of this DVD is that you can sweat while looking (or at least trying to look) graceful!
Bonus for boaters: Many of the exercises are adaptable to small spaces. I live and travel on my 35-foot sailboat. Staying fit onboard is always a challenge. I can perform many of the exercises both inside the boat and topside.
Being quite inflexible, I wish the DVD included additional warm-up stretches or an extras chapter with stretches to better prepare me for the leg lifts to follow. That aside, I recommend this DVD for people looking to increase strength, agility, balance and muscle tone.
