A ballet barre inspired workout designed to lengthen and sculpt long lean, dancers legs. Feel the burn with focused thigh and glute work that will chisel graceful muscles in all the right places. Using the larger muscle groups of the quads, glutes, hamstrings, inner and outer thighs will raise your heart rate, burn fat and calories, whilst your smaller underused muscles will also be engaged the entire time. It's a lower body burn out that will leave you sore in all the right places!

What is Barlates Body Blitz: Barlates is a fusion style workout that borrows from pilates, barre, ballet, yoga and more traditional cardio and toning. The idea was to create a workout, which flows seamlessly from one move into the next using the principles of isotension and high repetitions to build long, lean muscles. By using a lighter weight with high repetitions the exercises are designed to target all of those underused smaller muscle groups resulting in a defined, lengthened dancer's physique. This is a real girls workout in the sense that it is fun and feminine, but don't get me wrong it is still super intense with a big burn factor! The workouts are designed to be mixed and matched with an array of 20-30 minute upper body, lower body, abdominal and total body workouts that can be strung together for a longer session or done individually if you are short on time. These workouts will hit all those trouble spots and best of all you don't even need to wear shoes to do them! Get ready to sweat, puff and burn - hopefully you'll love every minute of it!
