DVD Reviews of Yoga Booty Ballet Complete Workout System
DVD Review: Great energy, body awareness & yet FUN workout
Summary: 4 Stars
I rented this from Netfl-- from their 3 disk set, (didn't include, of course, the guide book) which had:
Disk 1: Rehearsal/Meditation, Beginner & Advanced
disk 2: yoga booty hip hop abs
Disk 3: yoga booty ballet cabaret
I love Teigh McDonough from her Yoga Fusion Abs & Power VHS that incorporated dance & Qi Gong with pilates & yoga. She has great body awareness & knows what stretches, poses, moves feel great in what order to keep you inspired to keep opening up your body. I always feel very energized & positive after doing any of their DVDs & it makes me want to exercise even more! Their positive words of encouragement are empowering & were helpful to make me want to do this again & again. Gillian & Teigh have great body awareness and have great focused energy while still reminding you to always have fun & have the correct intentions as great as any great guru yogi master. (Teigh studied studied Kundalini yoga and meditation under Siri Sat Nam Singh for over 8 years & Anusara yoga with Desiree Rumbaugh and John Friend.) This is not fluff or woo-woo but a spiritual connection to your own body & nature w/o sarcasm or fear.
Disk 1: Beautiful perfect colors/nature backgrounds, high production value, great worldbeat, new age music w/great beats
Rehearsal & Guided Meditation:
Intro - 3 min - of telling you about what the system offers & what they focus on.
Teaching - 6 min - of them teaching you uji simple deep breathing, proper posture for toning section, how to do downward facing dog, proper posture for ballet plies & squats, recommend barefoot except toning sections, to be relaxed & enjoy the workouts, a mudra & positive mantra to end. Ravi plays drums several yards behind them.
Guided Meditation - 5 min - of female narration w/watching a mostly paused by occasional moving sunrise over high altitude mountain tops & clouds guiding you to relax your body & be more aware of it.
I didn't learn that much, they could have taught more, what they taught was good, but they have great energy & true good intentions.
Beginner Workout: 45 min
Intro - 1 min - of disclaimers, short mudra to bring your focus to your body.
Warm up - 8 min - w/Teigh, Gillian w/1 guy & 1 guy in great shape & 1 girl who's about 40 lbs overweight w/Ravi playing in the foreground. They are outside by mountain side w/ocean behind them. Breathing, step touches, zig zag, hip circles, torso roll down & ups, side stretches/hamstring, torso 360 circle stretches, squat stretches, more leg stretches in a dance flow style. Very fun & easy & felt stretched out & refreshed.
Ballet - 7 min - of Gillian & Teigh alone w/Ravi in the back by small man made waterfall & nice trees. Raised single leg & pulsed forward & behind, repeat on other side, 1 legged squats that are a great stretch for the glutes, repeat leg lifts, glut stretch again, side leg lifts w/turn in instead of turn outs to focus on glutes, repeat on other side, stretch glutes, repeat side stretches. A little boring, but not too bad, my legs & butt felted more toned & increased balance.
Toning/Sculpting - 9 min - Teigh & Gillian & guy outside with beautiful greek/roman white columns & steps ala coliseum look w/beautiful red fabric draped on either side of columns. Ravi is sitting on top of columns playing drums. Basic 2-3 lb weights, squats/plies, squats w/arm raises to shoulder level, step touches w/same arms, squats w/same arms, step touches w/arms, squats w/arms raised to the sky, step touches w/those arms, standing oblique side torso bends w/weights in hands, squats/plies & step touches w/arms tight to ribs to chest, squats & step touches w/weights behind head for tricep toning, tight knees together squats w/arms outward to join together in middle & up close to chest for biceps, then weights dropped for a few seconds of light dancing flow for stretching out arms & legs. I don't do weights, too boring for me, so I skipped this section.
Yoga - 7 min - w/Teigh, Gillian & same other people as before w/Ravi playing to the side. They are outside by mountain side w/ocean behind them. Simple arms, standing fwd bend, downward facing dog, upward dog, beetle squat (move up/down a little, very good stretch good for reproductive organs), down dog w/alternate knee bends, single leg downdog, knee to chest from that 1 leg down dog & repeat 2x, child's pose, swimming up/down torso for stretch, swimming to side to side while down for side stretching, then raise to knees from side to side & kneel to end.
They move at a fairly fast pace, this is not for anyone who doesn't already know yoga by their names & can do the poses in only a single breath. I felt good stretched out & refreshed, could have been a little more varied. The guide book (I didn't see it) may spell out more detailed information about the yoga poses for those new to it.
Toning - 6 min - Gillian, Teigh & guy w/same location as the sculpting workout, using squishy ball, but a pilates circle or pillow is fine between knees w/crunches, then ball between thighs & more crunches, ball behind knees w/reverse sit ups w/upper torso relaxed & then upper torso crunching at same time, rest by just squeezing thighs, rest w/legs in butterfly, knees in chest, roll like ball & done.
Cool Down - 5 min - outside same beautiful place, w/all the people from before, reclined on elbows, knees in circles, butterfly stretch, sitting wide legged side stretches & fwd bend, kundalini torso circles, standing fwd bend, wide 360 torso circles
Ending Mudra - 2 min - Gillian & Teigh alone again by koi pond & pool for last positive affirmations.
Advanced Workout: 52 min
Intro - 6 min min - Gillian & Teigh alone again by koi pond & pool for mudra/affirmations w/kundalini torso circles w/breath, torso back/forth w/breath.
Dancing - 24 min - Teigh & Gillian, same guy from before, 2 in shape women, 1 from before who looks 40 lbs overweight, outside with beautiful greek/roman coral now columns & steps ala coliseum look w/beautiful white fabric draped on either side of each of the columns. Ravi is sitting on the top step playing while women on the bottom below the 4 steps. On hands/knees go to downward dog w/bended knees & heels up/down & some kinda squats, then standing w/arm stretch dance flow, more dance flow stretch arms, hip circles, hip bumps, standing wide leg fwd bend, side angle pose, hamstring/thigh stretches, plies, dancy arm & shoulder moves/stretches, walking backwards w/back kick, snake, couple small jazzy stuff, hint of hip hop, v step, mambo w/cha cha, etc., ends with some cool down plies. Very easy movements, but very fast paced, not much teaching, but you'll be able to get it.
Ballet - 15 min - Teigh & Gillian w/one in shape girl outside on hillside w/ocean background again. Backup girl using a pole/bar for balance. Side single leg lifts up/down on both sides 3x, then holding it steady up both sides, then side single legs lifts both sides like 5x, then single leg squat that stretches glut well, hip circles, glut stretch, yoga tree pose, dancing shiva pose (single leg lifted), knee to straight leg forward kicks & then with tightened belly, small plies, small plies w/on relieve (tip toes), tandu? (simple toe stretched touches & foot slide backs) both fwd & back on both sides, then simple leg lifts forward & back, simple plies & glut stretch, other side leg lifts fwd & back, repeat again 2x, standing leg glut stretches, ends w/deep plies. I felt it pretty well, not boring, love the glut stretches.
Hatha Yoga - 11 min - slow yin style, outside columns place again in coral, Teigh & Gillian w/2 in shape girls & 1 heavier. Starts w/pigeon stretch & goes to advance form grabbing back leg as well, regular sitting torso twist, indian style, but on top of each other simple fwd bend. Very nice deep stretches don't normally see on most yoga dvds except that torso twist is pretty standard.
Mediation - 3 min - outside again on hillside, narrated voice over, reclined butterfly & lying star pose
Mudra/End - 1 min - Gillian & Teigh alone again by koi pond & pool for last positive affirmations of self-love.
You can see the full 30 minute commercial ad if you look up yoga booty ballet on google video.
Look to the yoga booty hip hop abs & cabaret pages for my review there. I actually like those better then the beginner/advanced here since there seems so much focus on it looking beautiful & great fade in/outs & perfect camera angles & close ups that I don't get the same positive feel I felt from the hip hop abs, cabaret, light/easy, Latin, & Master Series - Goddess Booty/Yoga Core. I love the Master series the best with Teigh & Gillian alone w/o all the distractions. They have such great energy. Yes, they can be a bit too corny, mostly Gillian, but she CAN dance & wish they would keep the dancing more cool latin, sexy, bellydance, ballet, jazzy, hip hop... nothing purposely corny or silly/embarrassing. (The Latin & Light/Easy are the worst ones, the rest doable.)
