Editorial Review:
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

Growing up I was a ballerina and quit when I got married. When I saw this video I was excited because I have just had my first child and need a good workout video to tighten up. The lessons get your heart going but are not very aerobic. I love this video for the floor workout, especially the ab routine. I have not learned the combination at the end of the video yet, but it does look like it would really get you to sweat!(lots of jumping)
Rating: - Ballet workout perfect for anyone
I'm a 27 yr. old male, and not a professional dancer. I have taken no classes. I enjoy ballet and figured this DVD would be a good way to get some exercise while learning more about an art that I love. NYC Ballet Workout 2 is the volume I prefer. I have both 1 and 2 and 2 gives much better instruction and pushes you along more effectively. You can sweat as little or as much as you like, I've found. Sometimes it's hard to get over the dancers' ability while you struggle to keep up, but once ... Read More
Rating: - Relaxing Ballet Workout
With frequent pacing changes, you are working out slow one minute and fast the next. The rapid movements get your heart beating faster, but the graceful flowing movements make you feel more relaxed.
The narration made me feel very relaxed, so the entire first two-thirds of the second workout seemed more relaxing and centering than invigorating. The exercises begin with a warm-up and progress to dance steps, floor exercises for the abs, legs and arms. During the exercises you do have ... Read More
Rating: - Good for dancers and non-dancers alike
This workout DVD is laid out in very good segments that you can mix on your own. The degree of difficulty in the movements is not overwhelming for people like me who have always wanted to be ballet dancers but never could. This is a challenging, but not impossibly complex, workout that will stretch you, strengthen you, and make you feel more graceful and balanced. Some of the combination movements are more suited to experienced dancers, but fun to try nonetheless. I would definitely recommend this ... Read More
Rating:  - Great for former dancers
This is a great product for former dancers who don't or can't do regular classes anymore. Might not be the best for beginners as proper ballet terms are used but the exercises are great for easing back into dance and keeping in shape.
