Movie Reviews of Yoga Booty Ballet Complete Workout System
Movie Review: Fun and effective
Summary: 4 Stars
I use this workout at home when I don't have time to go to the gym. It's sort of a guilty pleasure because the infomercials (and the workout) are so cheesy. The dvds are really fun and I love the instructors.
I have done both yoga and (a little) ballet and the moves they use are quite good. The ballet is basic and effective (they also tell you when they're doing a turnout that's not normally used in ballet, and you can tell from their movement that the instructors are experienced dancers). The yoga is good, could use better cuing in one of the videos (I spent an uncomfortable amount of time in chattaranga before realizing others had moved on).
The thing I like best is that they try to get your heart rate up during the toning videos, which makes those workouts very satisfying. I felt like the basic and advanced toning videos were of similar levels of difficulty (perhaps because I used heavier weights in the basic video), so if you can do one, the other is worthwhile too. Make sure you have a couple of levels of weights handy because the toning videos are more effective if you're using more weight on biceps and less weight on triceps. I used 10 lbs for some of the easier stuff, 5 lbs for most of it, and 3 lbs for the harder stuff.
The reason I docked them a star was because of the squishy ball. I guess if you have a nerf ball you can use that but I have been trying to use a medicine ball and it just isn't a good substitute. I pulled some kind of weird muscle in my butt after using a medicine ball and ended up doing other ab work instead during their abs sections. They suggest a pillow but maybe my pillows are too soft to be effective. It's probably worth it to pay the extra money to order the version with the ball -- the one I got had a coupon but you'd still have to pay extra for shipping.
Movie Review: The Bes t Exercise Plan Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
I love my Yoga Booty Ballet exercise videos. I do not have to "make" myself exercise now, this is so much fun, that you look forward to doing it. I love the results I have seen so far, but I still have a way to go, I know with Yoga Booty Ballet, I will get my desired look and have fun doing it.
Thank you Ladies.
Movie Review: Uplifting and Fun Routine
Summary: 4 Stars
I added this routine into my workout library and I have quite a collection of workout dvd's and find it great for days when I need something that is more fun and uplighting. I always have a good time when I use thses videos. The instrutors are great and they make you feel good about yourself. The dance steps are taught a little fast at first but after a few attemps it is not hard to follow. I like the yoga sections that are incoporated into the routine. I have found that if you want to make the ab section more challenging substitute a weighted ball for the beach body squishy ball used and you will increase the intensity. Over-all this is a good series. I have already bought several others and have a fun time when I use these videos. As far as weight lose goes I am not sure because I do other programs as well and I am in good shape and do not really want to loose wight just tone and stay that way.Movie Review: WILL KEEP YOU ON YOUR TOES!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this on a early morning commercial and i thought i was really interesting. However, i have never bought anything that i see on commercials for fear that it is a waste of money...WAS I FOREVER WRONG ABOUT YOGA BOOTY BALLET!!
I bought the tapes and i have already lost inches and 5 pounds. I love the fact that it involves dancing and ballet. I am a pilates lover so i knew this is something i would like. It is a great workout and keeps you moving constantly.
I love the fact there are 3 tapes and you can pick which one you want to choose. I also like that you can add your own moves and techniques with some of the dances. The tapes work on your buns, thighs, and hips..and that is where i really need it.
I will say the only thing that i do not like on the tapes is when they start talking about different gods and spirits. The instructors do alot of meditating and i do not involve myself with this. I just press fast forward to get through those scenes.
I have given it 5 Stars because it has gotten the job done for me. I would like to lose 10 more pounds and i know if i continue with this workout i will lose more!!
IT IS WELL WORTH THE BUCKS!!
Movie Review: What you put in is what you get out...fun!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been doing The Firm, pilates, and yoga for years. I also run regularly. What I love about this workout is that it reminded me of what it's like to move around as a kid...it's not serious business, it's fun.
I do think you get out of it what you put in. For example, I engage my abs the entire time, which I could feel throughout the workout. I doubt people without yoga or dance training know what it means to work from the core so they're not going to get it.
Because I really enjoyed it, I wondered if I'd get results with it. I hope so, because it sure beats killing my knees and other areas of my body pounding away with other boring workouts.
Growing up I was in dance (ballet and cheer) and so I love working to get the form of the dance moves just right.
I could see how someone who didn't have any dance, pilates, or yoga technique training wouldn't get it, but for those of you who do, it's fun to reconnect w/ the moves. I love light-hearted approach. I think it's good to workout with your head in a happy space. I'm convinced you'll get better results.
Maybe working out doesn't have to be horrible and tedious.
