Movie Reviews of Ballet Boot Camp 2

Movie Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars

Given the great reviews of this so far, it's hard to imagine that these don't do this DVD justice. Jessica Sherwood is effortlessly elegant in her movement and she is clear in her instruction. She's also lovely- not too enthusiastic nor too rigid- just very natural and engaging. This DVD in its entirety feels like a ballet class and a very unpretentious class at that. There are very good exercises and basic ballet, so it's enjoyable and gives a thorough conditioning for the entire body. As a basis for comparison, I think Ballet Boot Camp 2 is more thorough and contains more ballet than NYC Ballet II (I really like this DVD too but it feels more like isolated movements instead of ballet). I also prefer the choreography and appreciate the better instruction and inclusion of the arms in Ballet Boot Camp 2 which I was not so impressed with in NYC Ballet II.

Movie Review: Great Workout
Summary: 5 Stars

I like this video for the workout. You are not going to become a ballerina by doing the workout. If you want to learn classical ballet, take a class. This is a traditional workout video. The majority of the workout involves doing floor exercises were you are going to work your abs, arms, back and legs. These are exercises that a dancer would do to maintain his or her body. Yes, there is a section in the beginning were you warm-up doing some ballet moves, and another section at the end were you can practice some more ballet moves. I usually bypass the latter. I would recommend this video. The video was filmed in a dance class, so don't expect a lavish production. The participants also appear to be students, of all ages, who are actually taking a ballet course from the instructor.

Movie Review: A REAL BALLET CLASS FOR EVERYONE
Summary: 5 Stars

This DVD is the best i own that really resembles a ballet class, it runs for about 1 hour and 40 minutes if you do the entire workout.
The explanation is excellent, the music is excellent, the only thing i would change about it is offering a version without the initial explanation of every exercise, after you do this dvd a couple of times you could easily skip this part.
This and the NYC Workout Vol2. deliver excellent results in the entire body.

Movie Review: The best ballet workout ever!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the best ballet workout ever! I also love the first Ballet Boot Camp. I have tried NYC Ballet workouts 1 & 2, Balletone and Center Moves, all of Stephanie Herman's DVDs, Bar Method, Cardio Barre, Melissa Lowe's three ballet DVDs, and other various ballet inspired videos and DVDs. This outdoes them all. It definitely is worth ever penny. I have lost 215 pounds and reshaped my bod with this. I give it a thousand stars.

Movie Review: Great for toning and stretching
Summary: 5 Stars

I am a casual ballet dancer who does not regulary attend class.
I have found this video a to be a great in-between workout.
I think that it is great to maintain flexibility and strength. I really needed something that was NOT high impact aeorbics -- and this is definitely it. I always feel great after using this video, not tired, sweaty, and completely worn out. I would recommend this to anyone looking to tone up.
