Ballet Body Workout - Jennifer Galardi |
  Definitely more beginner than inter/adv |
| I got this workout partly because I like Jennifer Galardi, partly because I enjoy ballet/barre-type workouts to mix things up, and partly because it was rated as intermediate/advanced. I did enjoy the workout, however, I would rate it as beginner. It wasn't challenging, didn't get a burn going at all, and when I was finished, I felt like I hadn't even worked out. I suppose some might enjoy that, but for me, if I'm going to spend an hour of my time working out, I want it to be worth it. Not sure yet if I'll be keeping this one. - posted by Nicole on 8/10/2010 |

| Great for toning, but a little bit too long |
| This is an intermediate workout and I really do enjoy it. There are 5 different segments which makes the video over an hour long. The 1st segment is a lot of stretching. There is one segment that uses hand weights for about half of the time. Two of the other segments are 1/2 standing and 1/2 floor work. The last segment is warm down. I don't particularly like the warm down because they do the same stretch for long periods of time. I turn it off because I have already used an hour of my time and need to do other things. But, other than that, it helps with muscle toning and strengthening and I will use this video once or twice a week. - posted by Danette on 8/5/2010 |

| Great workout! |
| I recently purchased this video for a trip I was taking with just a carry-on for over a week. I didn't have workout shoes with me, but I still wanted to enjoy some challenging workouts. This instructor is so friendly and the workout so well-balanced that I plan to enjoy this workout on a regular basis at home, too. Great job! - posted by Kristina on 7/10/2010 |

| Outstanding instructor |
| I've been using this DVD in my exercise rotation for nearly three months, and of the six ballet DVDs that I own, this is one of the two best and one to which I return often. Galardi's instruction is clear, and the routine she put together is simple while still providing an excellent workout. Great music, always on rhythm, and consistently motivating. I really hope she makes another ballet DVD soon. - posted by Charlotte on 7/4/2010 |

| Sometimes intense workout but still relaxing |
| This is my first Jennifer Galardi DVD and I must say she is refreshing. This DVD is for those days when doing cardio or weight training is not an option. It is for the days when you need a feel good, relax, and stretch workout. Or you can always add it on to the end of your cardio workout to stretch. - posted by Rehanna on 6/26/2010 |

| Feels good, yet challenging |
| This is a nice, fluid workout led expertly by the instructor. There are definitely some challenging exercises and my core was sore the following day, yet most of it was relaxing and enjoyable. Great for a "light" workout/recovery day. Leaves the body feeling good. Energizing. - posted by Linda on 6/3/2010 |

| not sure |
| I really like Jennifer Galardi's workouts- maybe because this is a ballet workout- I just did not enjoy it as much as her other workouts- that being said - the workout does offer a good plie-squat section- that was good workout- also has a very good stretch at the end. - posted by donna on 5/22/2010 |

| Love It! |
| I loved this DVD, it really worked my glutes and hamstrings and had great ab work. I also loved the hand weights section but wished she incorporated more sets and reps. - posted by Lisa on 5/20/2010 |

| flies by! |
| Wow, time just flies by when you do this workout! It is such a welcome change from the typical aerobic, step or weight workout. Jennifer is an engaging instructor. Wonderful workout for the days when you don't want to "pound" your body! - posted by trish on 5/20/2010 |
