4.0 out of 5 starsGreat workout, there's pros and cons
By Kay on January 19, 2013
Format: DVD
I have to say first, the only person I really workout with anymore is Tracy Anderson because I'm very short and petite and I bulk very easily. I used to work out to everything from Jillian Michaels and Jackie Werner to Leslie Sansone or Jennifer Galardi. They were effective in making me stronger but I also looked a little too strong--BULK! I was getting in better shape, yet my were getting tighter from my quads getting overly muscular. Also, the fast paced high-intensity boot camp style of working out just wasn't working for me anymore. When I discovered Tracy Anderson I was in love because she worked the accessory muscles that normal workouts don't get to and she used the attitude position for a lot of her leg/butt workouts which is very ballet inspired, and she also did most of her leg workouts on the floor (on all fours) so instead of just squatting and putting all your weight on your legs, you were doing much more varied movements without the pressure on your legs and many different leg extensions with high repetitions (usually a set of 30 compared to most workouts I had done where they would do only 8 or 10 of the same move)

Flash forward to Mary Helen Bowers. I had done a NYC Ballet workout DVD and loved it but again, if I wasn't careful, I could bulk...so when I saw the preview for Ballet Beautiful I thought it was the mix of both worlds--ballet inspired moves but floor work with high repetitions that reminded me of Tracy Anderson's style. The simple white room, a mat, nothing obnoxious, just to the point. I love that there's classical music in Ballet Beautiful though, because it's much more relaxing and it does make you feel like a ballerina, which I find motivating and inspiring to workout to.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsThe best workout -- ever!!
By M. Black on September 3, 2012
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
I stumbled on Mary Helen Bowers series of DVD's through Amazon and have enjoyed them, her streaming videos on her website, her book and her live classes. This is DVD is the foundation of my workouts and I alternate the other DVD and streaming videos along with a live class. I have been the DVD workout queen for over 15 years and never, ever, have I enjoyed the results I have from just 3 months of Ballet Beautiful. I have done them all and enjoyed many, however, I have the best posture, core strength, elongated strong legs and stamina I have ever had (and this is 1 1/2 years after falling from my horse and breaking a vertebrae) and above all - I look forward to my workouts, I enjoy them and feel great afterwards. In fact, I try to get in at least 30 minutes before going to ride, makes a huge difference for me in my performance. I am not sure where the guy who reviewed this is getting his comments from, but I can honestly say the proof is not only in the physical appearance, but I am an avid equestrian and I have had trainers and other riders ask me what I have changed that I am riding so well now - versus even a few months ago. I can now finally do what my trainer is teaching me because I have the physical strength and stamina, finally! Thank you Mary Helen!!

5.0 out of 5 starsThere's a totally surprise benefit (!) to this!
By Me on November 19, 2013
Format: Amazon Video
I can't do the entire workout - have to skip some sets here and there, but after 2 weeks, I see vast improvement. Awesome workout. I don't care if it's "boring" to some people. I agree with other reviewers who say they like that she's not "pumping you up" with corny over-done motivation and cheesy workout music. No thanks. I like her simple, effective approach. She gets all target spots. It's more than you even need. And it really DOES strengthen and tone withOUT bulking you up - love it. Really amazing. Bit torturous, and she is very serene while she drags you through set after set of reps but it does the trick. Not necessary to do every set, you can stop and stretch here and there, as she says. After all, I'm not a professional ballerina like her! Anyway, this works fantastic. I do it several times a week but skip the cardio at the end as it's not necessary for me. I also don't want to be as skinny as a ballerina. I like having a bit more curves than that, I like having more hips. Anyway, an added benefit is, the surprising extra benefit to this workout was it has actually really improved lovemaking! It's made a great love life with my significant other even better. It must be the extra strength to the thighs, core, etc plus the specific movements you practice. So, while nobody else posted about that, it's an added benefit to this video, which I think deserves mention! Who knew?! Awesome! Never looked better! Thank you Mary Helen Bowers!
12/12/13 UPDATE TO MY ORIGINAL POST:
I've done her DVD for 6 weeks now, about 4 times per week. Mimimum 3 times per week, but I aim for 4 times. OK, I still can't do all the sets. I often do 3 out of 4 and stretch a bit longer (while she does the fourth set) because it's hard for me to keep up with her. I do my best though, and work it very hard.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsA beautiful, minimalist workout
By Pheebie on October 15, 2012
Format: DVD
Pros: you only need a towel or mat ~ no weights, ballet barre, chair or other props required; you'll develop beautiful, streamlined muscles; the DVD is chaptered, so you can easily select one or two segments if you're short on time; Mary Helen's cuing is excellent and her voice is encouraging, but never over-bubbly or grating like a drill sergeant; the set is serene and, combined with the music and elegant moves, you'll feel as though you're taking a class in a ballet studio.

Cons: you may curse like a sailor the first time you try this workout.

I bought this DVD because I wanted to add something new and different to my workout routine. I'd been doing Physique 57 (Volumes 1 and 2) for a few years, in addition to strength training with free weights, body weight exercises, walking, and jogging occasionally. I've been physically active my whole life - I'm no stranger to exercise and consider myself to be above average when it comes to fitness. That being said, the first few times I did the Ballet Beautiful routine, I cursed and swore. A lot. I HATED the workout ~ how could moves that appeared so simple be so difficult? I thought, "I work out daily - how can this be so *&%$@!# hard? What am I doing wrong?" Turns out I just had to stick with it. After 3 or 4 attempts, I finally began to feel as though I was getting the hang of the moves and gaining strength. That's not to say the workout has become easy - that would defeat the purpose. But I can now make it through each series, doing the advanced variations, and not scream horrible, ugly things at sweet little Mary Helen (who only wants to help us).

I also LOVE that this DVD is chaptered. It's perfect for those mornings when I only have 15 - 20 minutes to squeeze in a quick workout.Read more ›

Was looking for a barre exercise. Seems like this is for professional ballet dancers which isn't bad. It's just bad for non professional ballet dancers like myself :)

Nice workout, but make no mistake. This is basic calisthenics taught by a ballerina. This is not remotely like a real ballet class. Good workout, just not ballet.
