Embrace Your Inner Ballerina – Ballet Workout For All Women
With devotees like Madonna, Kelly Ripa, and Natalie Portman, it's not surprising ballet workout classes becoming increasingly popular. But it's not just Hollywood hype! Ballet-inspired workouts are a great way to develop lean muscle mass while improving your balance, flexibility, and range of motion.
Should I try it?
That
depends. Are you looking for a fun and unique total-body workout? If so, then
yes! Ballet workouts are suited to all fitness levels and – in spite of what
you might think – no previous dance experience is required. Tutors provide
exercises for everyone to help and get the most out of their workout.
What should I expect?
A
lot of people think you need to be coordinated or that you need to be a dancer,
but you really don't. Go in with an open mind, listen to the instructor, listen
to your body and enjoy yourself.
What's in it for me?
Yes,
if you are keen on having a read carpet ready body like Natalie
Portman and Zooey Deschanel, who are both fans of the ballet based fitness
method. You would be burning anywhere from 400 to 600 calories in an hour-long
class (depending on your weight and height), so you're bound to see changes sooner rather
than later. Long lean muscles, sculpted abs, toned thighs and calves, and
improved posture and flexibility are often reported. And don't forget all of
the other benefits that come with regular exercise: a decrease in stress
levels, better sleep and improved cardiovascular health to help ward off heart
disease and diabetes.
What should I wear?
Wear
comfortable, breathable workout clothing that's easy to move around
in, but not so loose that it's impossible for the tutor to see your form in
class. As for your feet, leave the cutting-edge cross-trainers at home. Soft
ballet shoes are the best option, they can be purchased in all ballet shops.
Alternatively, to begin, simple socks will do the job.
How often should I go?
Regular
ballet workout class, three or four times a week will deliver dramatic results
in the form of a slimmer, more toned physique.
Where can I try it?
We have a range of group& private classes available,
as well as lessons for absolute beginners in various locations. Attendance is
