Bernadette Giorgi's Attitude Ballet & Pilates Fusion
Product Description
From Jen, owner of Advanced Workouts:
When Bernadette sent me this workout for review, I really wasn't sure if it'd be appropriate for Advanced Workouts. I thought it would be too easy, with not enough challenge to sustain a place in our catalog.
After reviewing the workout several times, I decided it definitely needed to be added. Is this workout extremely advanced or similar to our other workouts such as Amy Bento's Slo-Mo Strength Challenge or Cathe Friedrich's Muscle Max? No -- but then again, it's not supposed to be. This DVD will challenge your body in different ways than our usual intense, hard-core strengthening DVDs. I found myself turning to the two workouts on this DVD on my light workout days (and we all need these, or else our body won't gain the necessary recovery time) and also for my evening workout routines, when I need light toning, lengthening, and stretching after my day of sitting in a computer-daze. The more I do these workouts, the more I benefit from them, and the more I love them. The ballet moves really work the lower body in ways that heavy weight work can't. When I do this workout, in conjunction with my regular fitness routine, I feel I'm totally getting a well-balanced, complete workout schedule.
Bernadette is one of the sweetest people I've had the privilege of speaking to, and her inspiring and heartfelt attitude definitely shows in the encouraging yet firm way she instructs her workouts. Her grace and beauty is an on-screen inspiration.
From the back of the DVD:
ATTITUDE BALLET & PILATES FUSION is a series of two fun yet challenging classes, designed so anyone can participate with no high impact moves. The classes focus on improving muscle tone, strength, posture, balance and flexibility. The gentle ballet moves with light weights (Bernadette uses a weighted ball), coupled with the Pilates-based mat work was designed to create a refreshing, effective workout that will create strong and sleek muscle tone.
WORKOUTS 1 & 2 both include:
* Standing warm-up
* Gentle barre exercises performed free-standing, holding onto a chair, or barre
* Center Work toning & sculpting arms, legs, abs, and glutes with light weight (med ball optional)
* Simple Pilates-inspired mat work for flat abs and a long, lean waist
* Ending revitalizing stretch for flexibility
