All the Right Moves - Amazing Legs Workout

Grace Lazenby
Year Released: 2008

Categories: Ballet/Barre, Lower Body Strength , Pilates/Core Strength


This is a short (30 minute) workout that remains true to the All the Right Moves style that Grace Lazenby introduced with her original VHS workout, All the Right Moves. The workout includes many of her signature moves, including the dance-inspired on-the-toes standing work, her floor work which includes many leg lifts and the Pilates "hot potato". Conspicuously absent is her very popular "pretzel" move. This workout has no premixes. A "no-yoga" premix would have been great, however, then the workout would be less than 10 minutes long. While I love yoga myself, I have never really clicked with it in the ARTM workouts; it seems so much like filler to me. Other than the very nice stretch at the end, the yoga seems to consist of a lot of downdog-chatturanga-updog sequences repeated many times.

Instructor Comments:
Grace is wearing a short top with one shoulder bare in this workout which does not flatter her. I've always been a bit concerned about her body shape; it looks like she overworks her obliques and I've not been a fan of how it makes her look.
She workout out with a few background exercisers. The music is unremarkable, as is the workout itself.
She does a better job in this one with restraining herself from repetitive utterances which got annoying in the original.
