It is very easy to catch on to and Mary Helen does a great job of explaining everything along the way. BUT, you don’t need any ballet or dance experience to do Ballet Beautiful. She is a professional ballerina, who danced in the New York City Ballet for 10 years.Ģ. Ballet Beautiful was founded and is taught by Mary Helen Bowers. There’s multiple dvds and new ones are released quite often, so I don’t have to worry about getting bored.ġ. Now I plan on sticking with Ballet Beautiful until the wedding and probably long after. I had read on the reviews that normally, you’ll see results from Ballet Beautiful in 1-2 weeks, but I honestly did not believe it. I went to put on my dress and not only did it zip right up, it was loose in the places where it used to be a bit snug! I was terribly nervous going into my second fitting, even though my seamstress assured me it would fit this time. So for the next two weeks I did a bit of cardio and slowly worked Ballet Beautiful into my schedule. I happened to have a Ballet Beautiful dvd at home that I had yet to try out. Apparently, she has had a lot of brides with this problem. So…my seamstress scheduled another fitting for two weeks later and told me to focus on stretching and getting long and lean muscles. In all those “back fat” pinterest workouts, they never mention that happening. Then I went in for my first fitting and got a very unpleasant surprise…they couldn’t zip up the dress over my upper back! During all those arm/back workouts, I had gained so much muscle that I was broader towards the top. When I started working out for my wedding, it was going great! I was running everyday, lifting weights to work my arms and back (I was determined to have zero “back fat” on the wedding day), and swimming after my workouts to cool down. First off, I’d like to tell you a bit about why I started Ballet Beautiful.
