Many elements of the New York City Ballet Workout were once confined to the world’s elite rehearsal studios. Now these elements have been designed as a comprehensive holistic approach to the body that can be used by anyone. This is a complete exercise program.
Graced with nearly 300 instructional photographs as well as extraordinary duotone portraits featuring New York City Ballet dancers Helene Alexopoulos, Albert Evans, Nicolaj Hubbe, Emily Coates, Edwaard Liang, Deanna McBrearty, Teresa Reyes and Christopher Wheeldon and an introduction by Peter Martins, Ballet Master in Chief, the book also explores the Company’s inner philosophy - balancing art, life and fitness. This elegant volume is unlike any other exercise book ever published.
