by Darcey Bussell (Author)
Sculpted and defined. Slim and toned. Perfect posture. What does Darcey Bussell do to maintain her fabulous body? Ballet, unlike other forms of exercise, does not bulk the body up, but rather defines and sculpts it. In this beautifully illustrated book, Darcey Bussell, one of the world's leading ballerinas, shows how you too can develop the figure of a dancer. Combining Pilates, Floor Barre and stretching, this is Darcey's daily exercise programme that keeps her in shape and ready for the stage. Pilates strengthens, lengthens and tones muscles. Floor Barre is a full body-conditioning workout that targets the abdominals, the glutes, thighs, calves and arms. Stretch keeps the body flexible and supple, boosts energy and improves posture. Follow Darcey's unique workout and you too will look and feel fabulous.
