New/Upcoming Release Dailey Method DVD (barre!)

[Gancho Girl]

Damn you fuzzie, I thought I told you I didn't want you to like this!

Now I want it..... but my car needs a new crank shaft, so I'm going to have to wait.

Hmmm, fuzzie may have a better answer than I (see, fuzzie, you can't escape being "the expert"! )...... I didn't think it was as hard as Dancer's Body or P57, but I definitely felt burning at times, as I mentioned, and I did get the classic barre leg shakes at times, too. But, the workout really did just fly by for me, so it wasn't mentally difficult, if that makes sense.

One thing I forgot to tell you guys about being at the studio... she wondered how I had heard about it since she didn't recognize me from a class, and I explained about the home exercising craze. Then I asked her if they would be getting more dvds in, and she said "we'll be getting more of the same workout, but not any different workouts." See, she knew we'd be clamoring for more right away! (I think she just couldn't figure out why I'd want to buy more than one copy).

+1 on all counts :] Thanks Katie!

PS-your avatar is truly radiant !

Fuzzie, thanks for the review. Now, I need to figure out how to get this dvd. I have high arches and reading your comments made me wonder whether going up high contributed to my plantar fasciatis problems. I really want to see her recommendations and see if this will allow me to keep doing my barre workouts.

Thanks to everyone for your reviews. The burning question is.....has anyone contacted Mary to see if she can carry this?

D'oh ... That's the obvious answer, isn't it? I'll go post something on Facebook.

You might warn her that some of the demand has already been met! I can't believe how many people have it already!

Fuzzie, do the windows make for a harsh backlighting/contrast? My eyes tend to strain a lot when I'm watching a video with windows behind the exercisers (like Sahra's Essentrics). I'm told that this type of strain is most irritating to light-eyed viewers like me, so it may not bother brown-eyed viewers.

If not...I think I'm sunk.

Thanks, Fuzzie.

Mary, Mary, Mary!!!

Thanks, Laura. I didn't want to contact her in case she'd already been under siege.....

I know what you mean about the contrast in some videos, but I did not notice a problem with this (said the green-eyed monster. Well, really, they ARE green! ).
