"A lot of fitness is about contractions - you're doing squats, or you're on a bike and your knees are..." — Mary Helen Bowers

It's empowering to find a workout that builds strength and grace.

Making fitness a priority will energize you, make you look and feel better, and help diffuse stress.

A lot of fitness has that very masculine energy and drive, and that never worked for me. I want to be challenged. I don't want to be told that I'm terrible and that I suck and that I'm not good enough - that's not motivating.

Ballet Beautiful is about finding balance and making fitness a part of your life in a happy, healthy, rewarding way where you get to feel pretty and look beautiful. It's not about beating yourself up in the gym and locking yourself in a dark room with blasting music.
