There really isn't much in the way of straight ballet cardio. Almost all ballet workouts I've seen are overwhelmingly strength and flexibility work, and those that are "cardio" are often very fusion-y to the point that they barely resemble ballet anymore. I felt that way about Balocity - a large portion of that workout is prancing back and forth doing balletic ponies. I really wanted to like Balocity and really didn't, and recall the majority of VFers who tried it reporting similar reactions. Collage's breakdowns and clips are useful for breaking down workouts to look for cardio sections, which is why I've linked to them here.
The only DVD I can think of that is only Ballet cardio is Balletone: Centre Moves. Keep in mind it's not super challenging, but it's pleasant enough. http://www.collagevideo.com/workout-...ter-moves-7377 Ballet Bootcamp I has 13 minutes of cardio at the end. I can't comment on what it's like sine I don't have it. http://www.collagevideo.com/workout-...tbootcamp-7233 Ballet Bootcamp II has 15 minutes of cardio at the end. It's a pretty big space hog, but is actually dancing ballet http://www.collagevideo.com/workout-...otcamp-ii-7055 Beyond Balletone also has 13 minutes of cardio at the end, plus 8 minutes of cardio with strength included. It's also a pretty big space hog, but only front-back, not side to side. http://www.collagevideo.com/workout-...balletone-7885 Aerobarre seems to have cardio ballet intervals mixed with boxing. It looks strange. http://www.collagevideo.com/workout-...sculpting-5864 |
